Description Stephan Elsner 2004-11-04 12:45:00 UTC

When I do an emerge -pv apsfilter, I see that cups will be emerged too. Cups do not work properly with a hp laserjet 4+ network printer (jetDirect) so I want to use apsfilter WITHOUT cups. I have -cups in my use flags but that seems to be ignored by apsfilter.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
put -cups in use flags /etc/make.conf
emerge -pv apsfilter

Actual Results:  
cups will be emerged

Expected Results:  
cups will NOT be emerged

It doesn't depend on cups but on a generic printer spooler to provide "virtual/lpr", cups is just the default.
