Interesting.  Should I reassign the bug to you?

In the meantime, I should probably make foomatic-db-gutenprint
conflict with foomatic-db-gimp-print (and make foomatic-db-gimp-print
an empty transitional package).  This isn't strictly necessary, since
they should coexist, but the old drivers are now gone, making
installation of both together of dubious value.


Regards,
Roger
