Package: system-config-printer
Version: 0.7.70-1
Severity: minor

Bug first reported in Ubuntu by Matthew Paul Thomas:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/system-config-printer/+bug/554174
*****
Ubuntu Lucid, all updates installed
1. In Ubuntu Software Center, navigate to "Get Software"
> "Developer Tools" > "Python".
2. Scroll through the list.
What happens: "Printing"/"Configure Printers"
(system-config-printer-gnome) appears in the list.
What should happen: It shouldn't be there.
This is because the system-config-printer-gnome package has "Section: python",
which it should not.
It's nothing particularly to do with Python,
it just happens to be written in that language.
I suggest changing to "Section: gnome".
***
The problem also exists in Maverick Ubunu.
Attaching a patch to fix the problem
Kindly apply the patch and update the section
