Details

Description:
CUPS requires ghostscript to function properly, so ghostscript should be an explicit dependency of the cups package

Additional info:
cups-1.3.7-1

Steps to reproduce:
1. install CUPS w/o ghostscript
2. configure printer
3. print test page

Attached example from debug-level error log showing missing "gs" error.

[off-topic?]
Shouldn't CUPS fail without gs? Should this go upstream?
