Hello,
I tried to install cups-1.1.18.0 but keep getting the following error
messages. I cannot find use the "make install "MAKE_PKG_REGISTER" option.
Can you possibly help?

If so, you may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install
this port again by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.
If you really wish to overwrite the old port of cups-1.1.18.0_4
without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
in your environment or the "make install" command line.
