>Description:
	I had cups-base installed and printing working very well.

	Then I installed a package thru 'pkg_add -r' that required
	cups-client.  So 'pkg_add -r' installed it.

	This spammed my existing libcups.so.2

	$ grep libcups.so /var/db/pkg/cups-*/+CONTENTS
	/var/db/pkg/cups-base-1.3.9_2/+CONTENTS:lib/libcups.so
	/var/db/pkg/cups-base-1.3.9_2/+CONTENTS:lib/libcups.so.2
	/var/db/pkg/cups-client-1.3.9_2/+CONTENTS:lib/libcups.so
	/var/db/pkg/cups-client-1.3.9_2/+CONTENTS:lib/libcups.so.2

	and I am left with both packages installed.  Which means
	uninstalling either will break the other.

	To make things worse, cups-client is built with different
	options that may conflict with how cups-base was built.

>How-To-Repeat:
	
>Fix:

	Please add suitable conflicts notations to the ports Makfile.
