clean reinstall of ssmtp port

[molofishy]

Yesterday I ran the following:
cd /usr/ports/mail/ssmtp; make install replace clean

After about a minute it looked like ssmtp was successfully installed. Since then I've been struggling to get ssmtp working, so would like to start again from scratch. I removed it with:

cd /usr/ports/mail/ssmtp
make deinstall
make clean

Now when running the following again:
cd /usr/ports/mail/ssmtp; make install replace clean

It stops installing after a few seconds with the following:

The issue is not with ssmtp but one of its dependencies, it fails to build gmake. Judging by the error it seems your print/texinfo is broken or missing.
