-# Mutual RPM package requirements are meanwhile considered to be bad because
+# Since Nov 14 2007 ghostscript-library does no longer require /usr/bin/hpijs
-# such cyclic dependencies which makes it harder to automatically solve dependencies.
+# but only "Suggests hplip-hpijs" (see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#341564).
-# Actually the hpijs driver requires Ghostscript (i.e ghostscript_any, e.g. ghostscript-library).
+# When ghostscript-library is installed, try to install hplip-hpijs if it is available:
-# But ghostscript-library must also require the hpijs driver which is the more imortant requirement
-# because when a user (or a printer setup tool) wants to set up a HP printer with the hpijs driver
-# it must be 100% sure that all what the hpijs driver needs to run is also installed.
-# Therefore the requirement is weakened for this package:
 Supplements:    ghostscript_any
+# On a minimalist system only hplip-hpijs may be installed
+# (e.g. because of the above supplements for ghostscript_any)
+# or on a minimalist package repository (e.g. on the openSUSE CDs)

+# Recommend only the matching version of the hplip main-package
+# (compare the "Requires: hplip-hpijs" entry above) but do not depend
