Hello,

Finally, did someone from Brother come to the OpenPrinting Summit ?

Because now in Ubuntu Natty, even with the previous indications, it is
impossible to install Brother DCP 7030 as ther is a problem of
compatibility with libc6...

If I try the solution from Brother -
http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/faq_prn.html#f00090
- it's just the one that I described before but automatic, and it also
installs all ia32 and lib32 that I don't want.

If I try the manual method - download the drivers, dating from February
2008 for the 7030 (!) and sudo dpkg -i --force-all --force-architecture
brdcp7030lpr-2.0.2-1.i386.deb then sudo dpkg -i --force-all --force-
architecture cupswrapperDCP7030-2.0.2-1.i386.deb :

Both fail and I get the error message (translated from french)

brdcp7030lpr:i386 depends from libc6 (>= 2.3.4-1).
dpkg : treatment error of brdcp7030lpr:i386 (--install) :
dependency problems  - left unconfigured

Same for cupswrapperdcp7030:i386

So for the moment I am unable to use my Brother printer on Natty...
