Right, so you meant that CUPS-PDF should automatically add the PDF printer in CUPS at installation time and delete it at removal time.
While this is doable, using postinst and prerm maintainer scripts, there are disadvantages to this method: 1) Users might want to use a PPD other than the default one. 2) Automatically making this printer the default is not desirable in cases when the user also has a real printer attached to their system. We want to let the user freely choose which one should be the default. I'd really like the input of the Ubuntu printing team on how to approach this request. PS: the instructions you linked to really point to CUPS itself failing the grandmother test. :) -- add/remove the PDF printer in CUPS at installation/removal time https://launchpad.net/bugs/82674 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
