Package: hpijs Version: 2.8.2+2.8.2-1 Severity: wishlist Hello, I have a headless server where my printers are connected to. According to the upstream home page (hplip.sf.net) hpijs is just what I need. I find it annoying that hpijs depenends on hplip which in turn installs a whole bunch of other packages that I neither want or need. When I understand the upstream description correctly, hpijs is a part of hplip, so when it is split out into its own package, the dependency should be the other way around, i.e. hplip should depend on hpijs. With the current situation, it is possible to have hplip installed without hpijs. I am not sure whether this makes sense, not to speak of work without errors. The packges describtion also "advises to also install the hplip package", which kind of absurd when this is forced via a depends. Anyway, IMHO it would be appropriate only to suggest hplip. Bye, Joerg
