 This depends on your configuration. With nothing changed, everything is 
 installed below /usr/local. Furthermore, the package db is updated 
 (usually /var/db/pkg). Finally the library cache is updated as well, which 
 *might* affect other directories. Not to forget: the whole build process is 
 done below /usr/ports/sysutils/k3b. Maybe configure&gcc uses /tmp as well, I 
 don't know.
 
 In any case: It is usually very hard to see a kernel panic. Unfortunately I 
 can not explain, why it happend only with k3b and not with other 
 applications. I do not see any special things going on during the k3b 
 installation. And I have no further ideas, what is wrong. All I know is, that 
 make install in k3b works fine here and that I have no further reports about 
 that!
 
 
 Sorry
