Re: Debian printing packages

thank you very much for your inclusion of the Common Print Dialog

sure, anytime!
For all of these there is a new generation (2.0b1) available upstream
now and cpdb-libs and cpdb-backend-file would be easy to update
already. cpdb-backend-cups depends on libcupsfilters2 which is about
to be updated to in Debian. None of the CPDB packages depends on
libppd2 (the CUPS backend is ready for the New Architecture, but works
with current CUPS as well).
Ok, I will wait until the current versions successfully migrate to
Debian testing and have a look afterwards.
The betas should get finally released in ~1 month or so. If this is
too late for Bookworm, we should update to the 2.0b1 versions of the
cpdb-... packages at least in Experimental.
The new version sounds like a SONAME change in cpdb-libs? So, yes this
is too late for Bookworm.
By the way, is Debian's HPLIP package up-to-date with upstream? And if
not, could you update it? Bookworm should not come with outdated HPLIP.
I just uploaded a new version and now have a look at some bugs, so the
next upload will follow soon.
Thorsten
