Bug#373722: [Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#373722: web interface doesn't show list of available cupsys-driver-gutenprint drivers when adding a new printer

[Lorenzo Bettini]

I'm experiencing this problem with these versions.  My printer is an 
Epson Stylus Color II.

dpkg --list | grep cups
ii  cups-pdf                         2.4.2-1 
   PDF printer for CUPS
ii  cupsys                           1.2.5-1 
   Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - server
ii  cupsys-bsd                       1.2.5-1 
   Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - BSD comman
ii  cupsys-client                    1.2.5-1 
   Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - client pro
ii  cupsys-common                    1.2.5-1 
   Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - common fil
ii  cupsys-driver-gimpprint          5.0.0-2 
   printer drivers for CUPS
ii  cupsys-driver-gutenprint         5.0.0-2 
   printer drivers for CUPS
ii  cupsys-pt                        1.2.4-3+b1 
   Tool for viewing/managing print jobs under C
ii  libcupsimage2                    1.2.5-1 
   Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - image libs
ii  libcupsys2                       1.2.5-1 
   Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - libs
ii  libcupsys2-dev                   1.2.5-1 
   Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - developmen
ii  libcupsys2-gnutls10              1.2.5-1 
   Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - dummy libs
ii  libgnomecups1.0-1                0.2.2-5 
   GNOME library for CUPS interaction
ii  libgnomecupsui1.0-1              0.31-1 
   UI extensions to libgnomecups

I also tried to select LPT#1, but gutenprint drivers do not show up: I 
must manually provide a ppd file (in this case, 
/usr/share/cups/model/gutenprint/5.0/en/stp-escp2-ii.5.0.ppd.gz, which 
does not even print correctly, but that's another issue).
