Hello,
Check out the Kde-Freebsd page for some tips.
http://freebsd.kde.org/
There is also a freebsd-kde mailing list.
I had some trouble with the same upgrade so I ended up deleting all the old
packages and then rebuilding KDE from scratch. It's not so much bother
really. Just delete by force everything beginning with a K!
Cheers
Huw
