Stacey: Yikes! Early snag! FrontPage can be a real beast. Do you see that
FrontPage package in:
/var/db/pkg....???

It must be in there if the system thinks it is installed....

If so, try deinstall of the port first.... then, if that fails, try
pkg_delete of the package IF you found it there....

Then reinstall the port....
