Seems hard to believe that such an important function, "cups", is just
missing from the ports tree. I have updated the ports on my system
with:
# csup -g -L 2 /root/ports-supfile
# cd /usr/ports
# make readmes && make index
So if I'm just doing something wrong due to ignorance, please point me
in the right direction so that I can solve my problem... Thank you!
This happens occasionally. CD to the /usr/ports/print/cups directory
and run: "make clean". Next run: make install and see if the port
installs. You might want to create a log file of the
build/install routine. If the build fails again, post the log here.
Well, when I cd to /usr/ports/print/cups and "make clean", "make
install", it /seems/ to build... at least it does not complain. I get:
# make clean
===> Cleaning for cups-1.4.2_1
# make install clean
===> Extracting for cups-1.4.2_1
===> Patching for cups-1.4.2_1
===> cups-1.4.2_1 depends on executable: espgs - found
===> cups-1.4.2_1 depends on executable: cupsd - found
===> Configuring for cups-1.4.2_1
===> Cleaning for cups-1.4.2_1

So, it's not complaining, right? But when I try to make a test print
from http://localhost:631, I still get this error message: "/usr/local/
libexec/cups/filter/rastertokm2430dl failed"
So I tried running portmanager again:
# portmanager print/cups --log
...and here is the contents of the logfile after I run it:

Any other suggestions?
ports/print/cups is a meta-port it does that when you already have
installed its requirements and or itself.
whats the output of ( ls /var/db/pkg/ |grep cups )
After that if you have cups-base installed have you tried setting it up
correctly including being in rc.conf?.
