>Description:
While trying to install /usr/ports/print/cups the /usr/ports/print/ghostscript/gpl-nox11 port is installed as a dependency.


I have two problems with the port.

1.  after initial config going back to the port to "make config" again fails with a statement that there is nothing to do.

if you cd into work and delete the .config-done file then you can make config in the port again.

2.  the port fails to install due to the following series of errors:

`obj/gdevhl12.o'./obj/genconf ./obj/devs.tr -h ./obj/gconfxx.h -p "%s&s&&" -pl "&-l%s&s&&" -pL "&-L%s&s&&" -ol ./obj/ld.tr
Can't read ./obj/pcl3.dev.
gmake: *** [obj/ld.tr] Error 1
*** Error code 2

Stop in /usr/ports/print/ghostscript-gpl-nox11.

this error is preceded by a long list of warnings similar to this:
src/contrib.mak:4498: warning: overriding commands for target `obj/gdevhl12.o'
src/contrib.mak:3768: warning: ignoring old commands for target 


>How-To-Repeat:
just try to install the ghostscript-gpl-nox11 port with a current ports tree.  my ports tree is current as of today
