you can do it, as said before, I wasn't really sure about the reassign either(I 
know such packages can have a working subset of functionalities and having an 
additional dependency is sometimes not the right thing to do!)

thanks for the explanation!
I'm not an user of roger-router myself, I just tried to fix RC bugs, but I'll 
be happy to see an upload or to upload it if youhave a patch :)
otherwise, I think people will just need to install the cups dependency 
theirselves(or I can just add that dependency and live happy, but I have the 
feeling that the postinst/postrm can be tweaked to ignore the missing 
dependency?)
