The ebuild specifies a build dependency on cups with or without USE=cups. The use flag is meant to control the runtime dependency only.

For some odd reason cups doesn't seem to get pulled in. Please try "emerge -D icedtea:7"

Don't hit me, but I had CUPS in /etc/portage/profile/package.provided to get rid of it when updating LibreOffice ...

I'm really sorry! Should had looked at this file before filing bugs.

Please close this bug due to user's failure ...

Just a note:
Ralph Sennhauser said, that there is a dependency on CUPS. So I looked at the ebuild and yes, there it is. CUPS was not pulled in on my system, so I'd take a look at /etc/portage/profile/package.provided because this was the only place where something like this could happen ... Again, I'm really sorry for opening it.
