Phonon is KDE's multimedia framework. Trolltech/Nokia liked it and decided to import it into Qt. They did that a while ago and hence have a pre-KDE-4.2 version of Photon in the toolkit. You *can* install the other components of Qt4 (and you have to if you want to use KDE4) but Qt4's Photon and KDE4's photon will not coexist. This really is not an issue unless you want to install something that wants Qt4's phonon specifically. I guess misc/qt4-qtdemo is one such port and so with this, one you are out of luck. Yes, this is not exactly perfect but the incompatibility is Trolltech/Nokia's fault if anybody's as it is them who ship an old version of phonon.
Regarding the problems with multimedia/phonon-xine: Are you sure you have undone any modifications you made to the bsd.*.mk files while chasing down the problems you had earlier? My guess would be there is something in one of these files that prevents your multimedia/phonon-xine from working. - Bartosz _______________________________________________ kde-freebsd mailing list kde-freebsd@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-freebsd See also http://freebsd.kde.org/ for latest information
