Daniel, it would be a good idea if you could obmit the following offending section:

+/* Xprint should be banned from earth because:
+ * - it uses its own site.def file.
+ * - it doesn't respect that this is debian even if told so.
What do you mean here?

+ * - it uses its set of Imake Defines. (like if there are not enough around).
What do you mean here?

+ * - it is shipped outside already.
Isn't this history now as Xprint is again part of X.org?

+ * - people claims that it has GL support! how cool.. look here (from
xprint_site.def):
+ *   #define BuildGlxExt                    NO
This is wrong. Anything from the old Xprint tree has no GL support, only the new
version in the X.org tree supports this feature.

+ *   because the above isn't supported yet.
+ * - it builds (again???) BuildFreetype2Library and fonts???
+ * - a part of its license is not clear.
Please prove this claim. Everyone has commited all files under the MIT license
except files in xc/extras/ and claiming that there is something 'illegal' must
be proven and reported to the X.org board of directors ASAP. If you cannot prove
this claim remove it.
Thanks!
