Hi all,

I have compiled cups-1.4.4 in /mit/sipb/arch/sun4x_510/build/cups-1.4.4
(and a stupidly simple test seems to work okay, but I will test more), but 
I have not yet installed it.
Before I do so, I want to ask: does it seem like a bad idea to install the 
clients as just 'lpq', 'lpr', etc. (instead of something like 'cups-lpq')?
I don't have a sense for how many people 'add -f sipb' on sun4x_510, which 
would cause a change in which lpr they get (and its syntax).
I suppose that anyone still using solaris-athena is probably expected to 
know what they're doing, so maybe it's not a big deal.

I will take silence as a go-ahead to install as-is, probably tomorrow 
night.

-Ben
