Yes sorry. Here is the message I get at startup:

Starting lpdstartproc: cannot stat /usr/sbin/lpd: no such file or directory.
Skipped

Ain't lpd some kind of a printing manager? I don't know if lpd was loaded
before the update. But will I still be able to print if I set START_LPD to
'no' ?

If lpd is not a part of the standard install then I don't have it installed
:) But doesn't the online update only mark updates recommended if you have the
prog installed?
