Due to a bug in qpkg due to it not using the Portage API directly. If
you look in the ebuild, you'll see that no such dependency exists (it's
probably getting it from "!media-gfx/gimp-print-cups".

Sincerely,

Daniel

Indeed, please file a bug then. http://bugs.gentoo.org Also you have 
a look at http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23944 for qpkg's
dependency checking.

Okay, I filed a bug. I know epm doesn't use the Portage API because its 
written in Perl, but does etcat?
