try the following magic incantation:

cp LPRng-... /usr/ports/distfiles

tar zxvf LPRng-....tgz
cd LPRng-...
cd DISTRIBUTIONS/FreeBSD*

## you can copy this to another spot if you want,
## this is a copy of the 'package' directory ususally found in
## /usr/ports/sysutils/LPRng

make

Note that you will discover that this does a package based make using the 
tar file in /usr/ports/distfiles.

Enjoy.
