Samuel, for what is file2brl exactly good for and how important is it for
the Braille printing support of cups-filters?
It is not strictly essential, in that liblouis-bin could be used instead
to get the braille translation. That will lower the quality of the
translation, because liblouis-bin has no notion of document structure
for instance, so it will not be able to properly use the title/paragraph
signs, etc, it will only able to translate the raw text output. If we
do this, we'd need a way to warn the user through CUPS that he should
really install liblouisutdml-bin to get better output.

Thanks. So if I add liblouis-bin to Depends: and move liblouisutdml-bin
to Suggests: does everything "just work"? Or does it need changes in the
upstream code?
If changes are needed, Samuel, please post a patch here. Also please
post a patch to get a warning into error_log telling the user that with
liblouisutdml-bin he gets better results. Make sure that the warning
also appears in error_log if the user uses the default LogLevel and not
"debug". Thanks in advance.
