NO_LPR= true in /etc/make.conf is enough to stop building and installing the binaries.

Maybe a simple 'LPR_USE_PKGSRC' > env variable that could be set to '1'. Why not just remove lpr from base entirely like it was done for Bind ? It would be much less complicated and won't have potential suid security issues... -- Francois Tigeot
