Hi, I have found that okular fails to print in FreeBSD. The problem is that okular requires the cups version of lpr but it finds the FreeBSD version (at /usr/bin/lpr). One work around is the CUPS_OVERWRITE_BASE knob however that is not a default option.
The attached patch gets okular to try and find an alternative lpr. The patch has been tested successfully. Could someone please add this patch to graphics/kdegraphics4. Regards, David
