Unfortunately, the manufacturer PPDs did not make it onto the Edgy CDs.
So I propose to ship only the most important PPDs on the CDs, as there
is no space for all PPDs.

I have made fixed Ubuntu packages of foomatic-db now. They split the
linuxprinting.org-ppds package in two, one named linuxprinting.org-ppds
containting only the most important PPDs (3.5 MB) and a second one named
linuxprinting.org-ppds-extra with all the other PPDs (10 MB). The first
one will go onto the Feisty CDs, the second one will be provided in main
for optional download.

Get the source package files from

http://www.freestandards.org/~till/tmp/ubuntu/feisty/foomatic-db/

and the new binary packages from

http://www.freestandards.org/~till/tmp/ubuntu/feisty/foomatic-db/binary/

They should work on both Edgy and Feisty.
