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. ** Affects: gutenprint (Ubuntu) Importance: Critical Status: Confirmed ** Affects: kubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Critical Assignee: Jonathan Riddell (jr) Status: Confirmed ** Changed in: gutenprint (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Critical Status: New => Confirmed Target: None => ubuntu-7.10-rc ** Also affects: kubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: kubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Critical Target: None => ubuntu-7.10-rc ** Changed in: kubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: kubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Jonathan Riddell (jr) -- foomati-db-gutenprint NEEDs ijsgutenprint https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/149899 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a bug contact for kubuntu-meta in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
