[Foo2zjs-maintainer] Bug#466758: foo2zjs: up-to-date upstream release

[Thomas Uhle]

Hi there!

I needed to update your foo2zjs package in order to get the Samsung  
CLP-315 working properly as your current foo2zjs code base is way too  
old. I thought it would be a good idea to update your patches of  
version 20070718dfsg-9 to get them working with the current upstream  
release 20090122, which has been taking quite a long time. Finally  
done, I wished other people to benefit from my work.
With this in mind I came across this patch request with Luca's  
unreleased packages of last autumn. Maybe those packages would have  
helped me to save my time, but anyway, now that I have done myself an  
update of the package's code base, I don't want to dump it.
Please find attached to my e-mail a tarball with all the necessary  
files to re-build the current up-to-date packages foo2zjs and  
hannah-foo2zjs, also including both binary builds of last night. My  
system is based on Xandros 4.5/ Debian etch/stable+backports, so the  
hannah binary build may not install on a clean Debian installation.  
Anyhow, although the updated foo2zjs package supports lots of new  
printers (I have already revised the download script getweb), I did  
not touch the helper application hannah to reflect those changes. I  
leave this up to you as you may clean up the code faster than I. And I  
am fine sticking to the console/terminal.

I would be very happy if my work could be of use for you.

Regards,

Thomas Uhle
