[11:46:55] <Flameeyes> dilfridge: if you can get me a cups that does not build the server components I'm going to make you a statue!
[14:28:50] <dilfridge> Flameeyes: Challenge accepted, but not in the first round of events :)

+1 ;-)

"minimal" use-flag seems to be appropriate, since it is used elsewhere for this purpose. Or "client" and "server" as in net-fs/samba.

I really don't need all the server-stuff on my machines, because I connect always to my printing-machine where a full-blown cups is installed and running.

Finally we have the suitable resolution for this.
