Bug#582687: gnome: Remove recommendation of hal-cups-utils.

Subject: gnome: Remove recommendation of hal-cups-utils.
Package: gnome
Version: 1:2.28+7
Severity: normal
User: pkg-utopia-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: halectomy

*** Please type your report below this line ***

Dear Debian folks,


could you please remove the recommendation because HAL is deprecated [1]. `hal-cups-utils` is recommended by `system-config-printer` anyway (but will be removed [2] in the future), so I think it is not needed.


Thanks,

Paul
