Bug#230209: Foomatic parameter changes are responsible for the problem



Hi,

as you can see below, I discussed with the kdeprint developer, and it looks
like the problem is that foomatic lost the "-t" parameter.
I have now a workaround (re-add the -t option to foomatic), so I don't see
the bug as so important, but I don't know how you want to handle it.

Cheers, Eric

Looking at several foomatic packages, the same flags as you have
are also used for 3.1. So it seems like backward compatibility
has been broken in foomatic somewhere between 3.0 and 3.1.
I'll contact foomatic developer about this.

Michael.
