The only way convertlit can be installed is if you build it manually.  You
would have to go to /usr/pkgsrc/textproc/convertlit and do 'bmake
install', because of the odd legal status of this package.

I'm not sure why installing kdevelop would require convertlit, but it may
be something where the series of dependencies runs that way?
