Hi again, Daniel. I'm Cc'ing the mailing list again on this reply.  
Let's keep the discussion there so others can participate too.

MacPorts does not look for libraries that were not installed with  
MacPorts. So MacPorts should not be making use of the CUPS you  
installed separately. That is, at least, the intention, for reasons  
explained in the FAQ:

http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/wiki/ 
FAQ#WhyisMacPortsusingitsownlibraries

However, it is possible that MacPorts is inadvertently picking up  
your rogue CUPS and that it is incomplete in some way and is throwing  
things off. Finally, Mac OS X already includes CUPS. So please  
uninstall the CUPS you installed separately and try again.

Is there anything else you have manually installed like this? Perhaps  
it's conflicting with things too. MacPorts is intended to handle all  
your 3rd-party software installation needs. If it doesn't meet all  
your needs, for example because some port is missing, let use know  
and maybe we can add it.


I was also confused how you were able to have Apple's X11 and  
MacPorts' XFree86 at the same time. That's not supposed to be  
possible. If you already have Apple's X11 installed, attempting to  
install the XFreeX86 port should fail and complain that bits are  
already there. So presumably you installed the MacPorts XFree86, then  
Apple's X11 on top, which happily replaced the MacPorts files. I  
would recommend you clean this up: "sudo port -f uninstall XFree86"  
to get rid of the MacPorts component, then "sudo rm -rf /usr/X11R6 / 
Applications/Utilities/X11.app /Library/Receipts/X11SDK.pkg /Library/ 
Receipts/X11Update2006.pkg /Library/Receipts/X11User.pkg" to get rid  
of any remaining parts of the Apple component, then install either  
one or the other, as you wish: Either install X11User.pkg from the  
Mac OS X DVD and X11SDK.pkg from the Xcode disk image, OR install  
XFree86 from MacPorts. Don't attempt to do both at the same time. I  
personally have had great success with Apple's X11. YMMV.
