Moin moin No I'm not contradicting myself, it was probably just not clearly stated... :) -- as I said, they conflict, as they install the same desktop in different versions... So, don't install plasma5 if you want to use plasma6 -- the only port that might be needed of plasma5-plasma-integration. If you want to try to use plasma6 and try to get wayland up, make sure to remove plasma5* and just install the plasma6-plasma package.
I really recommend to use this tree instead of main: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports-kde/tree/kde-it_goes_to_6 You can then create a shell-script ala ### #!/bin/sh export QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1 # export QT_WAYLAND_SHELL_INTEGRATION=xdg-shell export WAYLAND_DEBUG=1 # export XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland ck-launch-session dbus-run-session truss /usr/local/bin/startplasma-wayland >& /memory/startplasma.log #### to try to run plasma... you likely get an output like ### [...] qt.core.library: "/usr/local/lib/qt6/plugins/platforms/libqwayland-generic.so" loaded library Failed to create wl_display (No such file or directory) qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "wayland" in "" even though it was found. qt.core.library: "/usr/local/lib/qt6/plugins/platforms/libqxcb.so" loaded library qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display :0 qt.qpa.plugin: From 6.5.0, xcb-cursor0 or libxcb-cursor0 is needed to load the Qt xcb platform plugin.
