The presence of this package in Debian would improve the build processes
for packages such as Splix (currently their PPDs must be generated by
the package maintainer and shipped as part of the Debian diff).
The package is already present in Ubuntu: the following information is
taken from <http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/cupsddk>.
Package name : cupsddk
Version : 1.2.3
URL : http://www.cups.org/ddk/index.php
License : GPL
Programming Lang: C
Description : CUPS Driver Development Kit
The CUPS Driver Development Kit (DDK) provides a suite of standard
drivers, a PPD file compiler, and other utilities that can be used to
develop printer drivers for CUPS and other printing environments. CUPS
provides a portable printing layer for UNIX(r)-based operating systems.
The CUPS DDK provides the means for mass-producing PPD files and
drivers/filters for CUPS-based printer drivers.
This package should be installed for creating PPD files and for
developing printer drivers.
