Although I agree it is inconvenient to have that dependency when you don't _need_ to use it, cups-browsed is currently built by default with "--with- browseremoteprotocols=dnssd", which means that the "cups" protocol is not enabled by default [0]. In setups with only CUPS >= 1.6 client and servers, dnssd is the protocol of choice and "cups" is only available for retro- compatibility with older CUPS < 1.6 instances; it will eventually get dropped in a future release. By having dnssd in the default BrowseRemoteProtocols entry, starting cups- browsed doesn't work if avahi-daemon is not already launched (and hence, installed), as is expressed through the initscript LSB headers. So while I agree that having avahi-daemon as a dependency is unfortunate, I don't really see another way to have cups-browsed work straight after (minimal) installation. I'm therefore hereby tagging this bugreport as 'wontfix'. Cheers, OdyX [0] Although the postinst tries to enable it on upgrades from cups < 1.6. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
