I am not an expert on qmake myself but AFAIK qmake _is_ the configure
script, you build by running "qmake" which creates "Makefile" and then
"make" to actually compile and link the program. And you can pass
configuration parameters to qmake, i.e. you can run "qmake "CONFIG +=
print_to_cups" qpdfview.pro" to process "qpdfview.pro" into "Makefile"
but setting the configuration option "print_to_cups" beforehand.

The problem is that you can only reliably add configuration options.
Even though you could run "qmake "CONFIG -= print_to_cups"
qpdfview.pro" it won't work as it is overwritten by the statement in
"qpdfview.pri". (The "-after" option of "qmake" does not change this
either.)

So the easiest solution would probably be that I replace the
configuration option "print_to_cups" by "print_without_cups" (then
disabled by default) so that one can run "qmake "CONFIG +=
print_without_cups" qpdfview.pro" to disable the CUPS support. Will
commit that in a minute...

Regards, Adam.

P.S.: Could you try to send these messages to the mailing list? Thanks.
