Sometime in the past few days hpijs came to my attention in a way that escapes me at the moment, but I remember being puzzled by it. What is also puzzling is that hpijs doesn't show up here in the output of eix: Installed versions: 2.0.4^t(06:49:33 AM 08/28/2015)(X acl dbus java pam python ssl systemd threads -debug -kerberos -lprng-compat -selinux -static-libs -usb -xinetd -zeroconf ABI_MIPS="-n32 -n64 -o32" ABI_PPC="-32 -64" ABI_S390="-32 -64" ABI_X86="32 64 -x32" ELIBC="-FreeBSD" LINGUAS="-ca -cs -de -es -fr -it -ja -pt_BR -ru" PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7") Homepage: http://www.cups.org/ Description: The Common Unix Printing System When I run ufed, though, I do see an hpijs useflag described, because it's listed in /usr/portage/profiles/use.local.desc (dated today). Here is a good use for the new git-based portage tree (which I'm not using yet, BTW): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/ I just spent 10 minutes searching through the commits related to cups and I can't find anything about hpijs, but I know there's something strange going on with that useflag.
