>Number: 4781 >Category: ports >Synopsis: installation of teTeX overwrites the mp executable >Confidential: no >Severity: serious >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-ports >State: open >Class: change-request >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Thu Oct 16 10:50:03 PDT 1997 >Last-Modified: >Originator: Brett Taylor >Organization: Montana State University, Bozeman >Release: FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE i386 >Environment: >Description: There is a conflict between the new teTeX-0.4 port and mp (mp is similar to enscript).

Neither really belongs in /usr/X11R6 though.... -shrug- >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
