This part is true. Having cups installed it's not enough, it also needs cups running. That's why cups is not listed as a dependency but as a recommendation. So I would say this is not a good idea (except anything changed since the last time I took a look at it more than a year ago...) -- Paris, Je suis impregnée de ta présence!!! vous cette une fleche alée qui traspase mon cour muxbalsoc.

Also, it doesn't seem that this is a KDE-specific package, For what I understand of the files installed, this seems to be a KDE-specific application. A bad-named one possibly, but seems KDE-only. print-manager needs cups up and running (just depending on cups is not enough I think) so I don't know if it should be installed by kde-task.

KDE maintainers, any advice about this? I actually happen to have a KDE-based system and no print-manager installer so I can't really tell whether it should be installed by default. Also, it doesn't seem that this is a KDE-specific package, so the right place to add it would maybe be task-desktop (but then we should ask to other D.E. maintainers whether that conflicts with "their" DE. signature.asc Description: Digital signature
