Package: gnome
Version: 1:2.10.1.1
Severity: normal
Hi,
The default print configuration and print tools under GNOME expect a
local CUPS server on 127.0.0.1 and pulling in cupsys avoids a lot of
breakage with RPC programs (such as FAM) due to a bug in libcupsys
(#261179).
Having cupsys installed also permits queuing print jobs for remote
printers.
Since this is not absolutely necessary (one can configure a remote CUPS
server instead), I suggest we add a Recommend in gnome for cpusys.
Another option is to put the Recommend in packages relying on CUPS
being available at 127.0.0.1, such as gnome-cups-manager.
Let me know what you think of this.
Bye,
