KDE upgrade problem

Hello,
I'm running KDE 3.1.4 under FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT. I want to upgrade to KDE
3.2.1, and I've tried this a number of ways, using the ports system: I've
tried using 'portupgrade kde' and also in smaller chunks like 'portupgrade
kdelibs' and 'portupgrade kdebase', and I've tried doing
#cd /usr/ports/x11/kdelibs3/
#make depend
#make
#make install
and every time I get through the kdelibs build with no problems, and get the
same error when it tries to install:
####################################
===> Installing for kdelibs-3.2.1
===> kdelibs-3.2.1 conflicts with installed package(s):
kdebase-3.1.4
They install files into the same place.
Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1).
*** Error code 1

*** Error code 1

** Command failed [exit code 1]: /usr/bin/script -qa /tmp/portupgrade32717.0

! x11/kde3 (kde-3.1.4) (new compiler error)
bash-2.05b#

So, of course, I could try pkg_delete-ing kdebase, but I'm a bit reluctant
to bugger up a working installation, just in case that doesn't actually
solve the problem, or something else goes wrong, leaving me with no
desktop! Of course I could install another, temporary deaktop in case...
Or is it possibly a problem with the port?
Any ideas? Thanks very much
Ben
