Niels,

thank you for the quick reply.  I'm afraid the change is indeed pretty
intrusive, it completely swaps out the used code base.  Can I get in a
change to README.Debian to inform the users of the non-working CUPS
printer? Here is my suggestion.

"CUPS support for Roger Router in Jessie is currently known to be
non-working. The maintainer will try to release a backport after the
jessie release.  Until then, you can either recompile version 1.8.9-3 or
higher for yourself to get the fix or get the known-good, precompiled
and signed binaries straight from the maintainer at
http://oss.leggewie.org/bdo774116/";

Would that be acceptable?

Regards

Rolf
