I receive an error that 'kdebase' could not be found.
You have to get the the kde.rsync file <http://crux.nu/portdb/?a=getup&q=kde> and move it to /etc/ports Then you do $ ports -u which syncs your local ports-dirs to be up-to-date ( now you should habe something like /usr/ports/kde/ and so on ). Now you have to add a line prtdir /usr/ports/kde to your /etc/prt-get.conf to make the new repo know to prt-get. After these steps a $ prt-get depinst --install-scripts kdebase should start successful. btw: of course your ports don't have to be located in /usr/ports but that's the default location. btw^2: in ``--install-scripts kdebase'' the kdebase is the port and --install-scripts the instruction to ``Execute pre-install and post-install script if they're there'' (according to man 8 prt-get) btw^3: all this information has been taken from the handbook and documentation from crux.nu and the various man pages (prt-get, prt-get.conf, ..). It's out there, for you, too! <RTFM> kind regards, Thomas Penteker -- excess surge protection
