foomatic-filters is indeed obsolete. foomatic-rip in a CUPS-only version is now in cups-filters which is required by cups. So you should simply remove foomatic-filters from the tasks, its functionality is included in cups-filters now.
foomatic-filters is only useful for legacy non-CUPS print environments (LPRng? Is this still maintained?). foomatic-filters is not developed upstream any more.
