           Summary: cups needs g++ non-optional
           Product: Codex
           Version: stable grimoire
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: printer
        AssignedTo: sm-grimoire-bugs AT lists.ibiblio.org
        ReportedBy: thomas-forum AT orgis.org


I tried to install a basic server with minimal footprint with stable grimoire 
and stumbled over cups not compiling because of missing C++ compiler.

configure goes through but the compilation stops at some C++ file (don't have 
the log here now).

I see that g++ is an _optional_ dependency for cups... but when I glance at 
INSTALL.txt from the cups source:

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

You'll need ANSI-compliant C and C++ compilers, plus a make
program and Bourne shell.  The GNU compiler tools work well -
we've tested the current CUPS code against GCC 2.95.x with
excellent results.

So, I think we may have to face it and admit that we cannot have a cups print 
server without g++ - or is there some trick I don't know?
