Released cups-filters 1.0.42, updated Debian package BZR
Hi,
I have released cups-filters 1.0.42, and updated the Debian package BZR
appropriately, but there is still a small problem:
cups-filters 1.0.42 incorporates foomatic-rip and makes the
foomatic-filters package obsolete. Therefore I have added
"Conflicts/Replaces/Provides: foomatic-filters" for the cups-filters
binary package in debian/control, so that apt-get uninstalls
foomatic-filters when installing the new cups-filters package. This does
not work completely, as the packages with versioned dependency on
foomatic-filters are not satisfied by the Provides in cups-filters,
probably due to the much lower upstream version number of cups-filters.
The offending packages are
printer-driver-m2300w depends on foomatic-filters (>= 4.0.0~bzr156).
foomatic-db-engine depends on foomatic-filters (>= 4.0).
printer-driver-pxljr depends on foomatic-filters (>= 4.0.0~bzr156).
How should I proceed?
Till
