16 Sounds like your argument is more like a opinion. I built my desktop
17 about 6 years ago and the next thing bought after the build was a
18 printer. I use it daily. I'm 42 so I don't have access to a "free"
19 printer at a school or some public printer. Everyone here charges by
20 the page so it is much cheaper for me to own my own printer.

22 Removing the cups USE flag still doesn't fix the problem I pointed out
23 in another reply. If you unpack the tarball and set the USE line as you
24 should, the circular dependency is still there. Correct? So nothing is
25 "fixed" by doing this.
