Yeah, backtracking, kdegraphics4 does depend on convertlit.  However,
kdevelop looks like it depends on kde3, not kde4.  I'm not sure how you
got to this point.

You could clean out all the kde packages, and redo the install, capturing
the whole thing with script(1), and then we could go through it to see
what happened.  That's going to be a lot of hassle that doesn't
necessarily get us to an answer.

Have you tried doing a 'bmake install' in textproc/convertlit to build it
separately?  That would at least let the original install finish, which
was the goal.
