As said by others, dri can stay in the default base profile, as it |
| 13 |
only affects things when X is specifically installed, in which case |
| 14 |
dri would be a good default to have. |

I'm not sure whether we need to keep cups at all. I haven't printed |
| 17 |
anything from my personal PC or laptop in years. And I'm sure I'm not |
| 18 |
the only one. So I'm voting for dropping cups useflag from all |
| 19 |
profiles. If some people think it is necessary, maybe it can be moved |
| 20 |
up to the more complete desktop profiles for gnome and kde. For a |
| 21 |
simple non-gnome/kde desktop, I see no need for cups to be enabled by |
| 22 |
default at all. Since this may be an unexpected change for some, let's |
| 23 |
only drop it from the new 13.0 profiles. |
