It is a purely optional package that depends on cups and its whole  
purpose
is to replace the SysV-lp system. Nothing more. If you don't want the
system replaced you don't install this package. We may choose a slightly
modifed prefix like
   CSWScups (CSW Solaris cups)
or something to mark that it doesn't install in /opt/csw but replaced
Solaris core functionality.


Best regards
