Hi all, as you might have seen from the recent activity on [email protected], I have been working to push this "action 1" trough, so here is a status update for it:
- All printer driver packages under the Debian Printing Team umbrella have
been renamed to printer-driver-*, nominally to:
printer-driver-c2050
printer-driver-c2esp
printer-driver-escpr
printer-driver-foo2zjs
printer-driver-m2300w
printer-driver-pnm2ppa
printer-driver-ptouch
printer-driver-pxljr
printer-driver-sag-gdi
- In the process, short descriptions, relationships, sections and priorities
have been unified.
- In the process, some of those have seen new upstream updates, nominally:
epson-inkjet-printer-escpr and foo2zjs.
- Meta-packages have been uploaded as `printer-driver-all` and `printer
driver-all-enforce`, the latter having "Depends" instead of "Recommends"
for the sake of transitions (as britney (currently) doesn't check
installability of Recommends). Those metapackages currently _don't_
Recommend printer drivers that are not named as above (and I intend to keep
it that way.)
Remaining tasks for this "Action 1":
- Cleanup archive overrides, as all "transitional packages" have been moved
to extra/oldlibs.
- Update reverse dependencies of all the transitional packages to the new
meta packages (that should be an update of foomatic-db mostly).
- File bugs (at severity `normal`) against packages not under the team
umbrella to get those renamed too; eventually provide patches.
- Get all that migrated to testing.
Any comment, other idea ?
Cheers,
