>Description:
I want to use ghostscript-esp because it includes drives that have been
removed from the other ghostscript distributions.  I don't want to install
CUPS.  ghostscript-esp does not actually require CUPS to run.

>How-To-Repeat:
Build print/ghostscript-esp and watch it build CUPS.

>Fix:
Make CUPS support optional using the pkgsrc option framework.
