The commit log for r327582 gives me the impression that it might actually not be a good thing to remove the old KNOBS just yet. As an experiment I changed that system's make.conf as follows and the warnings went away (ports tree is at r327576) -WITHOUT_CUPS=3D -WITHOUT_X11=3D +OPTIONS_UNSET+=3D CUPS X11 I'll put make.conf back the way it was, upgrade the ports tree, and wait until I see those messages again. Thank you Bryan and Scot for your help. --=20 John Marshall --zx4FCpZtqtKETZ7O Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.21 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAlI6ZFkACgkQw/tAaKKahKJQIwCfVQHPE3qBOMLDLvB7oOWrIaym GqMAoMuXs5SPsXFMo0XQ5N6dieWk2H5H =Z/ER -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --zx4FCpZtqtKETZ7O--
