---> It's x11/kde (
https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports-kde/tree/kde-it_goes_to_6/x11/kde6
<https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports-kde/tree/kde-it_goes_to_6/x11/kde>

I suspect that x11/kde6 will compile kde6 for x11,not for wayland. Are you
sure that it includes the necessary wayland packages ? I want to run kde 6
on wayland,not on x11.
