Hi Julien, you're right, we should retire Xprint. I would like to see it one last time in squeeze as a "grandfathering" step, and then drop it after that completely. I agree, once we've dropped it, there's no real need to include the support libraries and utilities. I've been giving higher priority to work, but I want to get this last revision of Xprint done before the freeze (I'll wrap upstream in a final release too).
