Package: openoffice.org
Version: 1:2.3.1-2~bpo40+1
Severity: important

Due to a (Canon) driver needs, I had to switch lprng -> cups.
OOo2 automatically sees the avai printers, but forgets all the available 
'printers' already configured. Also, spadmin now offers only the possibility
to add either a fax or a pdf converter.
This is both bad and wrong:

bad) since all user's (config/setup/customization) work is wiped away!!
wrong) since 'printer' is a generic output device/queue which not necessarily
  is available via cups (eg filters that popup gui to hylafax)!

Now I've re-setup the hylafax 'printer', which is listed as a PDF filter 
instead of a fax (which would insist on asking for the fax# while that's
the purpose of the filter/gui) or the usual generic 'printer' icon.

Hope OOo is not going to try to become as too-smart as mozilla does ...

thanks
