lpd from lpr-2000.05.07-4.2. And "apt-get install lpr-ng" says
	E: Couldn't find package lpr-ng

Yes, although I don't know what the "compatibility mode" is supposed
to be.

The Debian kernel does not tell its paXX version... But it has
	CONFIG_PARPORT=y
	CONFIG_PARPORT_PC=y
	CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_CML1=y
and especially
	CONFIG_PARPORT_GSC=y
enabled. Should I try to update to pa22?
