in the cups-1.1.23 ebuild: "filter-flags -fomit-frame-pointer" introduced for 1.1.18 seems to be no longer necessary "disable-strip.patch" shouldn't be mandatory (although I suppose one add "-s" to their CFLAGS to build the binaries stripped) both changes may possibly lower the cups memory footprint and/or improve performance Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Created attachment 58571 [details] proposed ebuild incorporates the suggestions and removes some patches that aren't apparently necessary anymore
i removed "filter-flags fomit-frame-pointer" the stip feature is handled by portage and thus still disabled by the patch the xpdf and gcc4 patches are still neccessary
