The section

cd: can't cd to /usr/ports/multimedia/any2dvd
"Makefile", line 54: Could not
find /usr/ports/print/cups-lpr/../../print/cups/Makefile.common

appears often when installing both from packages and ports. I just stop
it and the install continues. What could be going on here?

Check carefully for local changes you made referring to this file (in
/usr/ports or /etc/make.conf, maybe elsewhere_. It no longer exists
in the ports tree so it is unreferenced in a standard install of it.

Kris

How would you suggest doing this? My simplemind approach (cat /usr/ports/* |
grep any2dvd) yields nothing. Nothing in /etc/make.conf, either...

Thanks,

Oliver
