    This is from the kde-lite port MAKEFILE:

    WITHOUT_KDEVELOP= yes
    WITHOUT_KDEEDU= yes
    WITHOUT_KDENETWORK= yes
    WITHOUT_KDESDK= yes
    WITHOUT_KDETOYS= yes
    WITHOUT_KDEWEBDEV= yes
    WITHOUT_KOFFICE= yes

    Given the space limitations, I'd make a list of things you do on the
    computer that's covered by KDE apps. Then, install kde-lite and see
    if anything is missing. If something's missing, install the individual
    port.

    For example, if you use kppp (a nifty, ppp dialup program), which is in
    kdenetwork; so you would install it using the port
    at /usr/ports/net/kdenetwork3.

    Since you use OpenOffice, however, you don't need koffice taking up
    space.

    Best regards,
