I've seen that some people need to purge |ippusbxd| before they can use

Is this a fix rule? Then I'd like to add a break dependency to
|ippusbxd| in my Ubuntu ppa.
ippusbxd has inherent problems that cannot be easily fixed:
https://github.com/OpenPrinting/ippusbxd/issues/15
https://github.com/OpenPrinting/ippusbxd/issues/14
ippusbxd may occasionally work with escl backend or not, but in any case
it will not work stable.
There is a replacement free of these problems:
https://github.com/OpenPrinting/ipp-usb
Note, this software is only needed to connect IPP-over-USB enabled
device using USB. It is not needed if network connection is in use.
