Package: discover
Version: 2.0.7-2.1
Severity: important
Hi,
discover is not loading the lp driver when a parport device is found.
This leaves a system without a working /dev/lp? device, leading to
printing not working without manual setup by the user (e.g. adding
lp to /etc/modules). The lp device is a fairly basic (but
important) device, which should work without user action.
See also #375395 for more information about the problem.
Regards,
Roger
