DESCRIPTION
       cups-config is the CUPS program configuration utility. It should be
       used by application developers to determine the necessary command-line
       options for the compiler and linker, as well as determining
       installation directories for filters, configuration files, and drivers.

OPTIONS
       --api-version
            Displays the current API version (major.minor).

       --build
            Displays a system-specific build number.

       --cflags
            Displays the necessary compiler options.

       --datadir
            Displays the default CUPS data directory.

       --help
            Displays the program usage message.

       --image
            When used with --libs, adds the CUPS imaging library to the list
            of displayed libraries.

       --ldflags
            Displays the necessary linker options.

       --libs
            Displays the necessary librarys to link to.

       --serverbin

            backends are stored.

       --serverroot
            Displays the default CUPS configuration file directory.

       --static
            When used with --libs, shows the static libraries instead of the
            default (shared) libraries.

       --version
            Displays the full version number of the CUPS installation
            (major.minor.patch).
