Right now I only see:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org:21/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8-stable/All/kdeutils-4.5.1.tbz
from 29 Sept. 2010. The port, misc/kdeutils4, was updated on 5 Oct.
2010, and the latest 8.x-stable i386 has not yet been placed on the
servers. But this is one of those cases I mentioned, where it seems
that pointyhat has a package that the ftp servers do not. (I don't
know why.) So you could try:
http://pointyhat.freebsd.org/errorlogs/i386-8-packages-latest/misc/kdeutils-4.5.2.tbz
or, better yet, build your own.
