Comment(by nicos_pavlov@…):

 kile does not need qt4-kde package. You can confirm this by looking at the
 Portfile. Instead of trying to install assumed dependency, I think it is
 usually better to install the package you want, and dependencies will be
 taken care of. Also, installing softwares outside of Macports will not be
 detected by it, since it has its own tree of dependences.

 Kile package is for kde 3.
 If you want to use kde4, you should install kile-devel, which is a beta
 version. It depends on qt4-mac, which is patched to work on SL (and not
 qt4-kde, which is now deprecated).
