[Pkg-hpijs-devel] Bug#649991: Bug#649991: Please rename the hplip packages to the printer-driver- convention

[Till Kamppeter]

Thanks for the patch.

The patch is not complete. The "hplip-data" binary package contains the 
PPD files for HP's PostScript printers, so the "hplip" package is also 
a printer driver. The PPD updater is in "hplip" (a packaging bug).

So there should be a new binary package named 
"printer-driver-hp-postscript", containing these PPDs (current file 
/usr/lib/cups/driver/hplip, should then be 
/usr/lib/cups/driver/hp-postscript) and the corresponding PPD updater.

The "hpijs-ppds" package is not needed by CUPS as CUPS auto-generates 
the PPDs based on the .drv file in the "hpijs" binary package. 
"hpijs-ppds" is only needed for non-CUPS spoolers which cannot cope 
with a .drv file. WDYT, should "hpijs-ppds" also be renamed to 
"printer-driver-..."? Should it keep its name? Or should it get dropped?
