Package: apsfilter
Version: 7.2.6-1
Severity: important

apsfilterconfig supports these options:

    4)  gimp-print (stp driver [DEPRECATED - use ijs]; version 4.2.x)
    5)  gimp-print (ijs driver; version 4.2.1 and later)

Gimp-Print is no longer available in Debian unstable, and gs-gpl and
gs-esp have dropped support for the STP driver.  As a consequence:

- option 4 is totally broken
- option 5 is also broken, because ijsgimpprint is no longer available.

This can be fixed by

- completely removing support for the STP driver; it's now obsolete
- supporting ijsgutenprint rather than ijsgimpprint; this is the
  recommended upgrade path for existing users, and the only option
  for new users.

ijsgutenprint is mostly compatible with ijsgimpprint, but supports
a far wider range of options.  The foomatic data in
foomatic-db-gutenprint lists the supported options.

This might be something upstream need to do, but this needs fixing for
etch.


Regards,
Roger
