While this might work, its propably better to just set DISTDIR to
/mnt/cd1/packages/distfiles :)

Below you show your /etc/mk.conf. You do set PREFIX there - this is
the fault. Don't set PREFIX, just LOCALBASE. KDE expects the includes
in X11BASE. PREFIX gets set to either LOCALBASE ot X11BASE, depending
on where the pakcage is expected to go. If you overwrite PREFIX you
get strange effetcs like that.

You really should not do such things. If you want to use binary
packages, use pkg_add(1) to install them.

Yes :)

Just remove the entry for PREFIX.

No, that one is ok.

You might want to wait some days until Matthias Scheler finished the
KDE 1.1 integration. Then its maybe a better idea to fetch the current
pkgsrc tarball, or just install the binary packages if they get
available. The KDE version from the Gateway! CD had some problems on
m68k if I recall right.
