Well, I think it is important to have a standard setup when asking for help on the maillist. J will do a reinstall this weekend, and then use pkg install for all my installations.
For this cenon package, I don't mind giving it a try. Is it ok if I install 10.4? And then I do pkg install xenon? I'm currently on 11.1, and indeed, the package is installed, but the program is not working (on my non-standard installation): [edwin@ottopedi ~]$ openapp Cenon 2017-11-09 02:59:10.141 Cenon[4708:100117] styleoffsets ... guessing offsets 2017-11-09 02:59:10.145 Cenon[4708:100117] styleoffsets ... guessing offsets 2017-11-09 02:59:10.260 Cenon[4708:100117] Unsupported...

If you’re using 10.x and are able to see why cenon isn’t building on > 10, that would be very helpful!
