I have satisfactory use of cups-base and cups-lpr, but I believe it
should be possible to install them somewhat more correctly, so that the
following happen:
1) The system's standard lpr command is replaced by the cups one,
without any manual alteration to the PATH being required.
2) portupgrade -a ceases displaying the messages:
** 'print/cups-lpr' is marked as IGNORE:
"is forbidden: "Changes ownership of system directories""
(and the same for cups-base)
Naturally, it will be necessary to prevent make world installing the
standard lpr but I can already see how to do that.
Any advice would be appreciated.
