I can investigate more when I get home. But you don't need an hp
printer to see that there are nearly-duplicate files between the two
packages, which is the root of the problem.
I don't know if there are any substantive differences, or if people
would ever want to use one version rather than the other. (If they do,
then there's still a bug because it's not easy for them to work out
which one they do want.) I'd like to suggest we either
1- remove the ppds from one package or the other
2- put the colliding drivers into conflicting packages (if some users
will want one and some other other)
3- change the names so that they say for example "hp 7660 (cups)"
and "hp 7660 (foomatic)"
