The following patch makes cupsys-driver-gutenprint use the new
location. I'll upload it shortly.

+ * cupsys-driver-gutenprint: Move PPD files from
+ /usr/share/cups/model/gutenprint/5.0 to /usr/share/ppd/gutenprint/5.0, to
+ comply with the Debian PPD File Structure Specification
+ (http://wiki.debian.org/PpdFileStructureSpecification). The postinst and
+ postrm scripts have been updated to remove the old PPDs, generate new PPDs
+ in the new location, and to upgrade PPDs using the new location.
+ Closes: #396642.
+ * debian/control: cupsys-driver-gutenprint Depends upon cupsys or cups >=
+ 1.2.5, so CUPS is guaranteed to find the PPDs in the new location.
