Hi all, |

The above bug brings up 2 issues: |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
First, hplip says one thing, but does another with qt3 and qt4 use-based |
| 8 |
dependencies. This is obviously a bug that needs to be fixed. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
As a user, the second issue it brings up for me is what is the policy |
| 11 |
applied to the rest of the tree with regards to packages that can use |
| 12 |
one or more of several options (eg. qt3 or qt4) and have both / all |
| 13 |
flags specified? |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Do packages that can use both/all always use both/all? |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
When both/all flags are specified, which one takes preferences? Always |
| 18 |
the newer? |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Where is this documented (both from a users point of view, and from a |
| 21 |
policy point of view)? |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
If hplip the only package that can only use one of qt3/qt4 and as such |
| 24 |
that's why it's the only one with local use flag descriptions, or are |
| 25 |
there more which just haven't been documented? |
