Assuming that it is like FreeBSD, use portmaster. Look at the examples
on the man page and find the instructions to re-install all ports.
After the first step, edit the output file to remove the KDE ports from
the list. Complete the instructions for re-installation and then
'portmaster x11/gnome2'.
