I am telling people I know to delete kdebase, kdenetwork, and kdepim before they start updating from 3.1.4 to 3.2. The only problem I have right now on 4-stable is producing a package of kdegraphics. Since I have to build it on everything, I haven't installed 3.2 on anything with less cpu than an AMD-1600+ XP. The spinlock problem is something else. I don't think it has settled down yet. Using libmap.conf works but people say it is a kludge. I want a clean system but doing a portupgrade -ufa on 5-current and a 1600+XP will take day(s).

Because of that the order of the upgrade is important and I also found because I initially did things out of order, I had to do some some fresh installs to get things back to ground zero. At one point, while trying to run down the dependencies, I ended up with two versions of KDEBase installed. That was messy. There are several related threads on the ports mailing list and here on the questions list because of the changes that have been made.

Unfortunately the installation fails while installing the kdelibs3 with the following error: Snip I had a very similar error on 5.1 Current which I solved after a lot of trial and error, and of course emails to lists. There is good information on this on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] page and the freebsd-ports mailing list. My email which is also posted to the ports mailing list follows: -- Forwarded Message -- Subject: Success - KDE 3.2 running on FreeBSD 5.1 Current Date: Wednesday 11 February 2004 09:23 am I had some problems upgrading to KDE 3.2 that I was helped through by Michael Nottenbrock and the [EMAIL PROTECTED] homepage (http://freebsd.kde.org/). As the homepage points out, there have been several changes to the structure of KDE to reach the 3.2 release so it is not as easy as doing a portupgrade -a to get everything up to date (and that's really not the best way to interrelated upgrades anyway). Here's what I had to do: Once you have updated your ports tree, you can portupgrade kde (the master port) to 3.2 without a problem. If you go beyond that, you will begin to have failures unless you follow a careful path... In serial fashion - meaning one at a time, not in parallel. Update the ports tree (!!) portupgrade -f XFree86-libraries portupgrade -f gmake portupgrade -f qt make deinstall kbase (in the kbase3 directory) portupgrade -f kdelibs Do a make install of kbase At the point where you have gotten through the upgrade/reinstall of qt you can start these tasks in another session in parallel: make deinstall kdenetwork (in the kdenetwork directory) either install or portupgrade -f kdepim make install kdenetwork (I did this in parallel with the upgrade of kdepim and had no problem) If you are doing this in sessions as a super user from X, logout of X and restart your X/KDE session. If you are doing this from the command line, no problem - you should now be able to start X and/or continue to update the rest of the KDE related ports. I had to use the "force" (-f) option in all of these because I had tried several approaches before I got this one to work. You may be able to stop using it once you have gotten past the forced upgrade of qt and a lot of this method depends on the state of your port tree when you start. But using the force won't change the fact that if the port needs an update it will be upgraded, if it doesn't it will be reinstalled. Either of those outcomes will solve the problems as long as you step through in the proper order.. If you have been playing around trying to get it work before you read this, you may have to do a portsclean -CDLP and then force a new port database (pkgdb -fu) to be put together before you do your last update to your ports tree. In any case, it can't hurt. After you have completed this series of upgrades and reinstalls, you can upgrade the rest of the KDE related ports. I tried to use the addons master port kdeaddons but it failed right away trying to upgrade atlanticdesigner (a game). I went around it and have been upgrading the other related ports without a problem. Why kdegames would upgrade and kdeaddons would halt in upgrading the kdegames I don't know. That's it!
