 Posted: Sun Apr 20, 2014 3:19 pm Post subject: Getting rid of cups |
 |
|
I am trying to get rid of cups. I don't have a printer and therefor I don't need it.
So in my make.conf, I got the flag -cups.
But it seems impossible. When I unmerge cups and cups-filters, it is always coming back.
Also, ghostscript-gpl always seems to need cups, event if I compile it with the -curl flag.
| Code: | # emerge -aqv --update --deep --with-bdeps=y --newuse world
[ebuild N ] sys-libs/zlib-1.2.8-r1 USE="minizip -static-libs" ABI_X86="(64) -32 (-x32)"
[ebuild N ] net-print/cups-1.7.1-r1 USE="X acl dbus gnutls pam python ssl systemd threads usb -debug -java -kerberos -lprng-compat (-selinux) -static-libs -xinetd -zeroconf" LINGUAS="-ca -es -fr -it -ja -ru" PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python2_7 -python2_6" PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7 -python2_6"
[ebuild N ] app-text/ghostscript-gpl-9.10-r2 USE="cups dbus -X -bindist -djvu -gtk -idn -static-libs" LINGUAS="de -ja -ko -zh_CN -zh_TW"
[ebuild N ] net-print/cups-filters-1.0.43-r1 USE="dbus foomatic jpeg perl png tiff -static-libs -zeroconf"
The following USE changes are necessary to proceed:
(see "package.use" in the portage(5) man page for more details)
# required by net-print/cups-1.7.1-r1
# required by net-print/cups-filters-1.0.43-r1
=app-text/ghostscript-gpl-9.10-r2 cups |
Why? |

vlynd,
| Code: | | emerge -aqv --update --deep --with-bdeps=y --newuse --tree world |
or | Code: | | equery depends cups |
The latter works with installed packages, the former formats the emerge output.
However app-text/ghostscript-gpl-9.10-r2 cups the cups USE flag is on in ghostscript-gpl.
Is that set in your package.use perhaps?
From the ebuid
| Code: | | IUSE="bindist cups dbus djvu gtk idn linguas_de static-libs X" |
so cups is not forced on there.

Thanks for the fast reply.
| Code: | # equery depends cups
* These packages depend on cups:
dev-java/icedtea-bin-6.1.12.7 (cups ? >=net-print/cups-1.4)
dev-java/icedtea-bin-7.2.4.3 (X ? >=net-print/cups-1.4)
(cups ? >=net-print/cups-1.4)
dev-qt/qtgui-4.8.5-r1 (cups ? net-print/cups)
gnome-base/gnome-settings-daemon-3.10.2 (cups ? >=net-print/cups-1.4[dbus])
net-wireless/bluez-5.15 (cups ? net-print/cups)
www-client/chromium-34.0.1847.116 (cups ? >=net-print/cups-1.3.11)
x11-libs/gtk+-2.24.23 (cups ? net-print/cups)
x11-libs/gtk+-3.10.8 (cups ? >=net-print/cups-1.2) |
When I look at the use-flags of all that packages, I see that none of them has the cups-flag enabled (except ghostscript):

vlynd,
I can turn off cups on the command line se it is not being forced on by anything I have installed.
[ebuild UD ] app-text/ghostscript-gpl-9.10-r2 [9.14] USE="X gtk -bindist -cups* -dbus -djvu -idn -static-libs" LINGUAS="-de -ja -ko -zh_CN -zh_TW" 0 kB
Notice the -cups*.
Please post and the entire content of /etc/portage/package.use

I have a similar situation, but there is no way around cups if you want to have icedtea:

vlynd,
That all looks good.
What does | Code: | | USE=-cups emerge -aqv --update --deep --with-bdeps=y --newuse world |
tell?
The USE on the command line overrides USE almost everywhere else. I would like to think it will fail and say that something else needs something built with +cups but I have a feeling that it will just work and we will be none the wiser.
Command live USE is normally a very bad thing as portage will not remember the setting but in this case, the information may be useful.

It seems that this bug is not going to be resolved... |

| It appears that this is a permanent problem for quite some people, now including myself. Something is forcing ghostscript-gpl to USE cups. Has anyone found a way out of this yet? I'd hate something dirty like packages.provided... |

for ghostscript-gpl, it looks like the cups use flag doesn't filter out cups-filters if -cups is used (ebuild problem?)

Nice find!
It seems that (also?) the app-emul/emul-linux-x86-baselibs pulls it in?
| Code: |
The following USE changes are necessary to proceed:
(see "package.use" in the portage(5) man page for more details)
# required by net-print/cups-1.7.3
# required by app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-baselibs-20140508-r14[abi_x86_32]
# required by sys-boot/grub-0.97-r13[ncurses,-static]
# required by @selected
# required by @world (argument)
>=app-text/ghostscript-gpl-9.14 cups
|
EDIT: and that's the last one, I could just confirm... So - why would the emul pack require cups all of the sudden, without a USE flag to possibly control that? I am sure it wasn't needed before. |

You should be able to make a copy of the ebuild in your local portage
and add the cups flag for cups-filter or just remove it.
And then create a new Manifest.
I am running ghostscript-gpl-9.05-r1 from my local directory and it doesn't have cups-filter in it.
I may have removed it, it's been so long I don't remember.
As far as the emul-linux-* I'm still running 20131008-r6 and it doesn't pull in cups.

| That's what I did, however it would be better to know why a complex pack like the baselibs decided to use cups unquestionally... I know it didn't used to do so, but I'd like to use the latest one for Steam. |

emul-linux has included 32-bit libcups since 2006. But now when USE=amd_x86_32 is enabled, emul-linux expects net-print/cups to supply the 32-bit libcups, instead of supplying it itself. With amd_x86_32 enabled, emul-linux is now almost more of a virtual package than a real one.
It isn't really worth making emul-linux have finer granularity in what it pulls in, because the current focus of the multilib effort is fixing package dependencies so that they depend directly on the relevant native package instead of on emul-linux, with the long term intent to get rid of emul-linux completely. The most common packages (such as wine) have already been fixed. See https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Multilib_porting_status#Dependency_update_status .
It may already be possible for you to safely uninstall emul-linux. Perhaps you'll need to track down a few remaining reverse dependencies, and work around them somehow. See https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-7509542.html?sid=c5b44664c998872c1c014477e22c3048#7509542 for more information about this (especially "Step 1", and also "Some related links"). |

Thank you for the exhaustive response!
Things are a bit clearer now. I'll perform some Steam cleanups now. |
