Let's sum it up. If I understand correctly, permission to depend on
openslp has not been granted. Instead, we can declare a dependency on
SUNWslpu. It will not result in automatic installation of libslp, but
will display a message during package installation, that SUNWslpu is
missing. The 64-bit libslp is in differently named packages between
Solaris 9 and 10, which could be potentially be a showstopper.
However, in the case of cups, because (by coincidence) there are no
64-bit cups libraries, we don't need to declare a dependency providing
the 64-bit libslp. Therefore, we'll declare a dependency on SUNWslpu
until 64-bit cups libraries come along. We'll revisit the issue then.
Is that the result of our discussion?
