When I tried installing cups on FreeBSD 4.8 today, the install balked part
way through saying that a file couldn't be downloaded, a Samsung file from
www.linuxprinting.org.  It turns out that that file was just updated today
so the time and checksum don't match what's in the ports database.

I manually downloaded the file from ftp.freebsd.org which still had the
older version, and the build is now going.

My main question, being a freebsd newbie, is what's the accepted procedure
for dealing with things like this?
