I don’t believe that calling cups-browsed bloat is fair, if you mean that it may increase the ISO image size somewhat ok, say that.
What I am hearing, and I what to understand properly, is that Manjaro is positioned as a more advanced user distro and not for everyday users and newcomers to linux?
That is what I hear, when over and over users on this forum are being sent to the AUR for drivers that don’t exist in the Arch/Manjaro repos when universal IPP printing is available. I really am trying to understand the logic behind not wanting your users, especially new users to not have to deal with configuring something that could be done for them automatically and instantly?
And as a matter of fact, there is no impact on boot time with the service enabled.
Linux Mint doesn’t seem to have an issue with it, it comes pre-installed on LMDE6,
I made my point and went to bat for the user.
FYI: Brother DCP-L2640DW not sure how to install drivers
