Hi, I've recently adopted the lprngtool package, which was in a bit of a sorry state, and packaged up a new upstream version, which addressed a number of the longer term bugs. It's in unstable at the moment. I've just discovered that an /etc/printcap entry made with the stable version of lprngtool is completely incompatible with the new version of lprngtool. I'm wondering how best to proceed. I'm not sure that I can on-the-fly convert the printcap. I'm thinking the best thing I can do is detect this situation, and pop up a Debconf note alerting the user to the situation, but I wanted to get a general opinion on whether this would be considered abuse of Debconf notes before I did this. regards Andrew
