Sigh. My point is, that's far easier said than done! Damned near everything drags in CUPS. I already had lprng installed, and foomatic-* wanted to remove it and install CUPS. Should I just complain to linuxprinting.org that they're flat out lying when they say I can use pretty much any spooler? That's not true, but Debian's packaging system appears to think it is. Why is it that when I do a non-DE install, then install fluxbox, it doesn't drag in xserver-xorg? Can fluxbox be used without X? Why the double standard? Why does CUPS (and Gnome, and KDE ...) get such close dependency ties when others, which really are close dependencies, don't? -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
