Hi,
from /usr/ports/print/cups-lpr/Makefile:
.ifndef CUPS_OVERWRITE_BASE
@${ECHO_MSG} "***"
@${ECHO_MSG} "You can define CUPS_OVERWRITE_BASE=3Dyes in your"
@${ECHO_MSG} "make.conf to remove base system lpr tools from"
@${ECHO_MSG} "PATH search. In this case it is recommended to"
@${ECHO_MSG} "also define NO_LPR=3Dyes, to not write base lpr"
@${ECHO_MSG} "binaries during next make world"
