Cannot install foomatic-filters

["Jeff Johnston" <jjohnston28@cox.net>]

Greetings,

First of all thanks to the developers for the best distro I've ever
used.

I'm attempting to get my HP PSC 1315 to work.  I have two machines
running Debian at the moment, one named Gandalf and the other is
Mythbox.  I have installed foomatic-filters on mythbox and everything
works perfectly.

On Gandalf I get the following errors when I attempt to install
foomatic-filters:

If I do not have the folder /etc/foomatic I receive this error

I have purged the package (dpkg -P foomatic-filters) to no avail.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
