Package: cupsys
Version: 1.1.20final+rc1-10
Severity: important

Hi,

suddenly my Lexmark printer stopped working. Apparently the
conversion tools have been dropped to be included in cupsys.

I needed to build a program called z42_cmyk in order to it
working again. I guess this is a fundamental problem that 
drivers supported in gimpprint or foomatic-db don't know
what programs they need in order to work properly. 

Usually I would suspect that cups would detect that a driver
is not fulfillable to and maybe tell what's the problem!

Here: 'you need z42_cmyk in order to make this printer functional'

Nevertheless, maybe it would be wise to include those tools in 
the printing system (it worked previously, so somehow I suspect that
this tool has been simply dropped from the upstream sources)

BTW, I downloaded the GPL source of the tool for z4x at:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~pastolk/

Thx for package cupsys!

Cheers,

Alexander

p.s.: Maybe this is the wrong package, but since I really have no time
to figure out which part of the printing packages should deal with
this, I post it to cupsys. Feel free to reassign it, but CC me!

Hello,

This is an automatic mail sent to close the RFP you have reported or 
are involved with.

Your RFP wnpp bug is being closed because of the following reasons:
- It is, as of today, older than 365 days.
- It hasn't had any activity recently.

As this is an automatic procedure, it could of course have something
wrong and probably it would be closing some bugs that are not 
intended by owners and submitters (like you) to be closed, for
example if the RFP is still of your interest, or there has been 
some kind of activity around it. In that case, please reopen the
bug, do it, DO IT NOW! (I don't want to be blamed because of
mass closing and not let people know that they can easily reopen
their bugs ;-).

To re-open it, you simply have to mail control@bugs.debian.org
with a body text like this:

 reopen 282235
 stop

Further comments on the work done in the bug sent to
282235@bugs.debian.org would be truly welcomed.
Anyway, if you have any kind of problems when dealing with
the BTS, feel free to contact me and I'd be more than happy to help
you on this: <damog@debian.org>.

A similar process is being applied to other kind of wnpp bugs.

Thanks for your cooperation,

 -- David Moreno Garza <damog@debian.org>.
