The LPRng software is an enhanced, extended, and portable implementation
-of the Berkeley LPR print spooler functionality. While providing the
-same interface and meeting RFC1179 requirements, the implementation is
-completely new and provides support for the following features:
-lightweight (no databases needed) lpr, lpc, and lprm programs; dynamic
-redirection of print queues; automatic job holding; highly verbose
-diagnostics; multiple printers serving a single queue; client programs
-do not need to run SUID root; greatly enhanced security checks; and a
-greatly improved permission and authorization mechanism.
+of the Berkeley LPR print spooler functionality.

+This package does not contain anything by itself -- it is a
+"meta-package" that depends on the LPRng-core and LPRng-doc packages.
+Its purpose is to require dependencies so users can install this package
+only and have the the complete LPRng software pulled in by the package
+dependency mechanism.
