I second that. Plus I'd like to _chose_, whether I want jockey to step
in my way or whether I'd just like to select the driver from the list of
installed ones. For a brother-printer which works after installing one
single .deb (MFC 7820N, brother-cups-wrapper-laser), jockey installed 34
packages, just to import some rpm-based driver. What a nonsense.

(it installed html2text po-debconf debhelper librpmio0 rpm-common
librpm0 librpmbuild0 rpm2cpio rpm alien libsys-hostname-long-perl
libmail-sendmail-perl libqt3-mt libqt4-network libqt4-assistant
libqt4-xml libqt4-dbus libqt4-script libqt4-designer libqt4-svg
libqt4-opengl libqt4-gui libqt4-sql libqt4-sql-sqlite m4 ncurses-term
pax lsb-core lsb-graphics lsb-cxx lsb-desktop lsb-printing lsb
openprinting-ppds-postscript-brother)

I really appreciate the possibility to have jockey care for the whole
driver installation, but I also would like to skip the step (which I did
by pressing "Close" in Jockey) altogether.

Regards, Lars
