At least in my environment, /usr/local/bin/ is parsed before /usr/bin/, which means "lpr" is called from the cups package before the system version of lpr. The cups lpr creates really strange errors like: % ls | lpr lpr: error - no default destination available. % ls | lpr -Php5 lpr: unable to print file: server-error-service-unavailable cups is a dependency for a couple of other packages, so the unsuspecting user could install it without knowing that he could change his print environment. -- My PGP public key is at http://pgpkeys.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=yengst%40photon.com Lookup anyone's PGP key at http://pgpkeys.mit.edu:11371/ Thomas R.
