With my Debian Printing Team member hat: Le mardi, 6 décembre 2016, 10.18:23 h CET Philip Hands a écrit : > What is a print server? (CUPS) web server? (apache2)
The "print server" entry in tasksel should be rethought, as it nowadays only depends on CUPS, and recommends various helper drivers & co. If one really wants to setup a shared print server, they would install CUPS on a pristine Debian and configure CUPS from there on. If CUPS is "only" meant to be used as local print server, it should really be a recommends of the desktop tools caring about printing. I don't really see the point anymore about having this entry in the d-i tasks selection; and would suggest to remove it entirely, and (eventually) add an entry in the Release Notes saying "if you want a print-server, install CUPS". Btw, there's https://bugs.debian.org/824645 for which I put up a cleanup patch, but I can't push it. :/ OdyX
