unable to install kdepim

We have freebsd 6.0 with kde-3.5.7.

I couldn't get kdepim to install. pkg_add brought up the error that
there are conflicting packages, but when I tried to remove the conflict
it said that other packages depended on it and wouldn't remove it. (See below).

I also tried using "make install clean" from the port but it got into
some endless error loop and wouldn't install.

Help appreciated.
