Package: foomatic-filters-ppds Version: 20050913-1 Severity: wishlist
Hi, I tried to compare the PPD files provided by the foomatic-filters-ppds package and the PPD files provided on the linuxprinting.org website. As an example I chose a printer I happen to use regularly: a Kyocera-FS-9100DN. So I looked at those files: /usr/share/ppd/Kyocera/Kyocera-FS-9100DN-Postscript.ppd.gz http://www.linuxprinting.org/download/PPD/Kyocera/en/Kyocera_Mita_FS-9100DN_en.ppd and found out that they have very little in common. The Debian file is much smaller and contains: *FileVersion: "1.1" whereas the linuxprinting.org file seems much more complete and contains: *FileVersion: "8.2" Additionally the linuxprinting.org website provided localized PPD files, which would be nice to have in Debian. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (100, 'unstable'), (99, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.14-1-686 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages foomatic-filters-ppds depends on: ii foomatic-filters 3.0.2-20050720-1 linuxprinting.org printer support Versions of packages foomatic-filters-ppds recommends: ii cupsys 1.1.99.b1.r4841-1 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii cupsys-drive 4.3.99+cvs20051122.dfsg.1-1 printer drivers for CUPS ii foo2zjs 20051113-1 Support for printing to ZjStream-b pn ppm2ppa <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
