  If so, you may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install

  If you really wish to overwrite the old port of cups-1.1.18.0_4

*** Error code 1
Try:

FORCE_PKG_REGISTER=YES make install

(all as one line).  Or try:

make FORCE_PKG_REGISTER=yes install

Note that the variable name is "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER" and not
"MAKE_PKG_REGISTER"

Re: Installing CUPS pkg

2003-03-12 Thread Peter Elsner
Do a:  make deinstall && make clean first,

then do a:  make all install clean

That should do it.
