Hello,
There seems to be a few issues with the cups page, I think the cups
page needs a major rewrite.

Firstly, it doesn't set --localstatedir=/var so make install
creates /usr/var and several subdirectories.

Secondly, the note about usb printers and the kernel config option
CONFIG_USB_PRINTER only applies if you've installed libusb. libusb is
listed as an optional dependency so if someone (like me) didn't install
libusb (as nothing needs it) and set CONFIG_USB_PRINTER=n then they
wouldn't be able to print. I can print because I set
CONFIG_USB_PRINTER=Y. If I did install libusb I would configure cups
with --disable-libusb because the kernel usblp driver works.

So, would anyone object if I did some rewriting of the cups page?

Andy
