I was hoping, these problems would go away after the recent rework of 
cups ports, but it seems, it only got worse. Not just AVAHI, DBUS, and 
X11 can lead to a circular dependency during a portupgrade.

Also, cups-filters is required for something as simple as printing a 
text/plain, but conflicts with foomatic-filters -- which provides 
support for additional printers.

If someone found the time and the energy to rework cups-ports, why are 
these problems still remaining?
