Hi all, as you might have seen from the recent activity on debian-printing@l.d.o, I have been working to push this "action 1" trough, so here is a status update for it: - All printer driver packages under the Debian Printing Team umbrella have been renamed to printer-driver-*, nominally to: printer-driver-c2050 printer-driver-c2esp printer-driver-escpr printer-driver-foo2zjs printer-driver-m2300w printer-driver-pnm2ppa printer-driver-ptouch printer-driver-pxljr printer-driver-sag-gdi - In the process, short descriptions, relationships, sections and priorities have been unified. - In the process, some of those have seen new upstream updates, nominally: epson-inkjet-printer-escpr and foo2zjs. - Meta-packages have been uploaded as `printer-driver-all` and `printer driver-all-enforce`, the latter having "Depends" instead of "Recommends" for the sake of transitions (as britney (currently) doesn't check installability of Recommends). Those metapackages currently _don't_ Recommend printer drivers that are not named as above (and I intend to keep it that way.) Remaining tasks for this "Action 1": - Cleanup archive overrides, as all "transitional packages" have been moved to extra/oldlibs. - Update reverse dependencies of all the transitional packages to the new meta packages (that should be an update of foomatic-db mostly). - File bugs (at severity `normal`) against packages not under the team umbrella to get those renamed too; eventually provide patches. - Get all that migrated to testing. Any comment, other idea ? Cheers, -- OdyX
