I mean I got the dependencies resolved to a point that I could keep the programs I wanted. See if you can get gnome-cups-manager running and try adding a printer through it. Otherwise where does adding a printer fail? Here is a list of the cups related packages I have installed if it helps (I am not sure all are needed but I didn't feel like trying to figure which to throw out): i cupsomatic-ppd - linuxprinting.org printer support - transi i A cupsys - Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - server i A cupsys-bsd - Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - BSD comm i A cupsys-client - Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - client p i cupsys-driver-gimpprint-data - Gimp-Print printer drivers for CUPS i cupsys-pt - Tool for viewing/managing print jobs under i A foomatic-db - linuxprinting.org printer support - databa i A foomatic-db-engine - linuxprinting.org printer support - progra i foomatic-db-gimp-print - linuxprinting.org printer support - databa i foomatic-db-hpijs - linuxprinting.org printer support - databa i foomatic-filters - linuxprinting.org printer support - filter i foomatic-filters-ppds - linuxprinting.org printer support - prebui i gnome-cups-manager - CUPS printer admin tool for GNOME i A libcupsimage2 - Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - image li i A libcupsys2-gnutls10 - Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - libs i libgnomecups1.0-1 - GNOME library for CUPS interaction i libgnomecupsui1.0-1 - UI extensions to libgnomecups > -- > richard > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
