Summary and Info:

As of now nxclient (the nomachine client) has a dependency of cups. I need nxclient, but I had lprng installed, and I don't like cups. Is it possible to have cups as an optional dependency? Would it be that nxclient breaks without cups, or perhaps just the printing support part? If the later, well if cups is not satisfied, perhaps that's expected, and the more reason to make it optional (maybe someone doen't even want printing support)...


Steps to Reproduce:

None.
