Thanks for all advices so far. I would like to give this patch a try but I am worrying about possibly confusing pkg(ng) in case of having to downgrade again. If I got you right, Boris, your patch should upgrade print/cups-filters to version 1.0.50. If I have the need to downgrade again, I will use the original Makefile. Can I build and install the original version 1.0.42 again without confusing pkg(ng)? I ask because I am rather new to FreeBSD and right after having learned old pkg administration I am still in the process of understanding pkg(ng). I have learned from the forum and from own bad experiences that the package database can easily be mangled leaving you with a lot of work to get things running again. I should mention that my latest attempt of increasing the log level to "debug" did not reveal any additional helpful information - if I remember correctly :-) Regards, Peter
