Public bug reported:

To fix bug 99372 Jonathan Riddell has decided on using foomatic-db-
gutenprint to provide the Gutenprint PPDs as the KDE Printing Manager
cannot cope with the on-the-fly PPD generator of cupsys-driver-
gutenprint. To save space in Kubuntu he has released the "Depends" on
ijsgutenprint.

foomatic-db-gutenprint contains Foomatic XML data to generate PPD files
for the IJS driver of Gutenprint, ijsgutenprint. These PPDs are not able
to use the cupsys-driver-gutenprint driver. Not having ijsgutenprint
installed makes the PPDs generated from the data in foomatic-db-
gutenprint non-functional. So the "Depends" on ijsgutenprint cannot be
removed to save space on Kubuntu. The correct solution is to take
cupsys-driver-gutenprint out of the Kubuntu seed and add ijsgutenprint
instead.
