Description Athul Acharya 2005-01-20 17:52:06 UTC
I am suddenly required to emerge cups when I emerge -uD world
because of a hard-dep on virtuals/lpr in a new openoffice-bin ebuild.  I have no printer and usually print to a ps and print in the school labs. This does not require cups or any lpr.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have the previous openoffice-bin-1.1.4, and no cups
2. emerge -uD world
3. look, it wants to install a new package, cups



Expected Results:  
Not put a hard-dep on virtuals/lpr

root@thumper ~ # emerge -p openoffice-bin
...
[ebuild   R   ] app-office/openoffice-bin-1.1.4  -gnome +java +kde 0 kB 

So as you can see there's nothing in my USE flags that wants cups.
