Summary0011433: Make CUPS optional
DescriptionWould be nice/useful make CUPS optional for building Scribus (perhaps adding a flags to cmake, something like -DWITHOUT_CUPS=1) to build Scribus on systems without CUPS, since if we attempt to build Scribus without CUPS available, we get errors about missing libraries and include files.
Steps To ReproduceAttempt to build Scribus on a system without CUPS and after

cd build
cmake ..

You will get an error about missing CUPS_LIBRARIES and CUPS_INCLUDE_DIR
TagsNo tags attached.

Not all... Sometimes CUPS causing Scribus crash on opening preferences dialog (it is known CUPS problem) because of buggy read of avaialble devices.
In my work I can live without any printing services in Scribus at all - all my output is going to PDF.
So...
For developers there could be CMAKE switch -DWANT_CUPS, for end-users printing support could be included as plugin.

Obviously i'm totally agree with you :-)
Your reason is a more step to have CUPS optional!
