Package: service-discovery-applet
Version: 0.4.4-3.1
Tags: patch
Severity: minor

Hello,

The current service-discovery-applet isn't really useful when it comes
to printer support.

I made a small patch that prints useful information (see attached
image) in order to setup the found printers, instead of giving a
message with 0 value that is given now (Detected printers can be
configured via the System->Administration->Printing menu)

The patch is made over the upstream master which I got from:
http://git.0pointer.de/repos/service-discovery-applet.git
