This causes a port conflict if enscript-letter is already installed, or else forces you to use an A4 paper size. Since 'A4' is NOT the default for all regions, there should be multiple options for graphics/gegl whenever enscript is used, to ensure that enscript-letter can be used in lieu of enscript-a4 . Adding an extra option is the recommended fix. I discovered this problem while trying to do a clean re-install of all ports on an existing system (i.e. delete all packages, then build from scratch using portinstall). >How-To-Repeat: 1. install print/enscript-letter 2. attempt to install graphics/gegl (or a port that depends on it) with the 'enscript' option enabled. Note that the build of enscript-a4 will fail, preventing installation of the port 3. disable the enscript option for graphics/gegl, note conflict disappears. >Fix: WORKAROUND: do not enable the 'enscript' option if you do not want A4 paper size. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
