After re-installing Xubuntu 16.04 this morning, I was able to find a suitable driver for my Epson XP-410 printer by adding the package, printer-driver-escpr. There was no requirement for lsb as a prerequisite.
dpkg -L printer-driver-escpr /. /usr /usr/lib /usr/lib/printer-driver-escpr /usr/lib/printer-driver-escpr/libescpr.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib/cups /usr/lib/cups/driver /usr/lib/cups/driver/escpr /usr/lib/cups/filter /usr/lib/cups/filter/epson-escpr /usr/lib/cups/filter/epson-escpr-wrapper /usr/share /usr/share/cups /usr/share/cups/ppd-updaters /usr/share/cups/ppd-updaters/printer-driver-escpr.ppd-updater /usr/share/doc /usr/share/doc/printer-driver-escpr /usr/share/doc/printer-driver-escpr/copyright /usr/share/doc/printer-driver-escpr/changelog.Debian.gz /usr/lib/printer-driver-escpr/libescpr.so.1 I would recommend that the other affected parties should try this approach with 16.04. Stay away from the Epson site downloads. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1536353 Title: [regression] Printer drivers install is broken as lsb package is not available anymore To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lsb/+bug/1536353/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
