This destroys kde4 and then takes forever to rebuild it on the client machine. This makes machine unusable for a long while for users who use kde4.
You should instead recommend: # pkg_add -r kde-4.2.0 Currently there are no binary kde-4.2.0 packages: Error: FTP Unable to get ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-stable/Latest/kde-4.2.0.tbz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access) None for 8.X either. So you should first make sure there are binary packages on FTP and after this check ports tree in and post UPDATING entry. This would have caused only minimal disruption for many users.

A number of applications have been moved between packages. The easiest way to avoid various problems during update is to delete all KDE-4.1.4 ports and install KDE-4.2.0. # pkg_delete -f kde\*4.1.4\* automoc4-\* # portmaster -a (or portupgrade -a) # cd ${PORTSDIR}/x11/kde4 && make config && make install clean _______________________________________________ kde-freebsd mailing list kde-freebsd@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-freebsd See also http://freebsd.kde.org/ for latest information
