Suggestion from openprinting forums... Firstly, install the package with dpkg -i , then change the dependency on lsb to lsb-base by editing /var/lib/dpkg/status and finding the epson package in that file. Then change the Depends: line to lsb-base so it looks like
Depends: lsb-base Then run apt-get install -f to configure the dirver properly. The second thing is, because this isn't a real LSB system (or, seems so to me) then you have to have a LSB compatible loader in /lib64 so we need to symlink the standard link loader instead. As root, you would ln -s /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 /lib64/ld-lsb-x86-64.so.3 This satisfies the loader for the printfilter. After these steps, my networked XP-312 worked. I suspect this to be the case for many of the LSB based Epson drivers on Ubuntu 16.04 (maybe earlier versions of Ubuntu as well, actually). -- 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/ubuntu/+source/cups-filters/+bug/1536353/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
