Unfortunately, the lenny→squeeze upgrade is still broken.

See the bug [1] I filed against upgrade-reports, where I tried to upgrade a
default lenny GNOME desktop.

As you can see from the sid upgrade log for apt-get [2], the
system-config-printer-udev package is not automatically installed on upgrades
and instead the old and useless hal-cups-utils package is kept.

Most likely, because system-config-printer-udev is only recommended by
system-config-printer and system-config-printer-udev Conflicts with hal-cups-utils.

If we want to get hal-cups-utils removed on upgrades, maybe the Conflicts should
be moved to the system-config-printer package instead?

Getting David into the loop again, for his advice.

Cheers,
Michael
