Probably should be in kdebase3.

etc files are not registered. They are usually placed in the
share/examples directory. You may want to double-check your script for
figuring this out.

These could have been generated by several packages.

Should be in xorg or XFree86 package. (I had in xorg-tools package.)

In kdebase3 I assume.

The problem is probably that the build system didn't detect something or
didn't install, so the pkgsrc committer didn't know.
