Description C. Wijtmans 2010-12-18 19:27:22 UTC

When i emerged chromium and dint get the java plugin to work i tried emerging icedtea instead of using standard icedtea-bin.
When emerging icedtea ghostscript-gpl is asking me to use cups. I do not want to have cups on this system since i dont have a printer and need all my resources.
Also i am running icedtea-bin without having cups.
Is there something messed up in an ebuild?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE="-cups"
2. emerge -pv icedtea

No, icedtea depends on cups to build. See http://iced-tea.org/wiki/BuildRequirements
