I'm in a hurry now, but:

MINKY> make -C /usr/ports/ search name=kdehier
Port:   kdehier-1.0_11
Path:   /usr/ports/misc/kdehier
Info:   Utility port which installs a hierarchy of shared KDE directories
Maint:  ports at FreeBSD.org
B-deps: 
R-deps: 
WWW:    

Port:   kdehier4-1.1.1
Path:   /usr/ports/misc/kdehier4
Info:   Hierarchy of shared directories for KDE 4 ports
Maint:  kde at FreeBSD.org
B-deps: 
R-deps: 
WWW:    

Port:   misc/kdehier
Moved:  
Date:   2013-07-26
Reason: Has expired: Depends on QT3

There's nothing wrong with portmaster, it just
tells you that you have a port installed, which
is no longer available, and hence it cannot be processed
automatically, a user intervention is required.

YOu probably want to do:

portmaster -o misc/kdehier4 misc/kdehier

but please check the syntax in the man page,
I haven't got the time right now.
