Close. Perl scripts instead of blobs, which are much more portable across distros and versions. But at least for the .deb they didn't know enough to make em noarch. (Haven't installed a Brother on RH tech) When will companies learn to ask for community assistance?
Out of idle curiosity: what do those Perl scripts do? Are they downloading a firmware image to the printer, or are they installing something into CUPS?
I would think that if it's just a bunch of Perl scripts, than someone would add something comparable to CUPS, and call it a day.
