Package: xprt-common
Version: 0.0.9.cvs20040114-3
Severity: wishlist


As Xprint accessing printers through other printing systems which have the 
concept of a default printer, it would be nice if Xprint selected one of 
these as its default printer.  I couldn't find a means of setting the default 
printer other than by setting the env. var. XPRINTER.  Here's a crude patch 
to the /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ script to set XPRINTER from the output of 'lpstat 
-d'.  As most printing systems provide a BSD-lpr/lpd-compatible lpstat, I 
think this should work right for most people.

The xprint-common package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the bugs that were still opened
against it.

For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/xprint . That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed, and suggestions of possible replacements.

Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.

Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
