I mean it nicely lists each package you'd need to install. Several of these depend on each other (like you can't install cupsys-* without cupsys), so you might only need to apt-get install a few to pull down all of them. I don't think you can eliminate any of them and if you're not strapped for space, I wouldn't tempt a good thing to go bad. > cupsys > libcupsys2 > cupsys-pstoraster > cupsys-client > cupsys-bsd > > Also, would i just do "apt-get install ___" for each of the items?
