In the past I have just tried to find an alternative port that did the same job, but it has always felt as though I wasnt trying hard enough. Yesterday after upgrading all my ports tree I decided to get printing working and cups / HP stuff all works fine as does the web gui to cups so I decided to try and make xpp. The result is 'Segmentation Fault' - thats it! How do I go about finding out what caused it and how to get the program running? Any tips etc appreciated!
