The intention with this change is to make it easier to enable CUPS support by default in places, without requiring the daemon (which might conflict with other printing setups). Bump cups-base PKGREVISION and make it depend on libcups.

The Common UNIX Printing System provides a portable printing layer for
|
|
UNIX operating systems. It has been developed by Easy Software Products
|
|
to promote a standard printing solution for all UNIX vendors and users.
|
|
CUPS provides the System V and Berkeley command-line interfaces.
|
|
|
|
CUPS uses the Internet Printing Protocol (IETF-IPP) as the basis for
|
|
managing print jobs and queues. The Line Printer Daemon (LPD, RFC1179)
|
|
and AppSocket protocols are also supported with reduced functionality.
|
|
|
|
CUPS adds network printer browsing and PostScript Printer Description
|
|
("PPD")-based printing options to support real world applications under
|
|
UNIX.
|
|
|
|
This package consists of the library used for talking to CUPS.
