*** /tmp/tmp2P2w3P/bug_body

In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following:

  * debian/non-shipped-files.txt, debian/hplip.install: don't ship
    hp-upgrade and upgrade.py, as we want to use proper packaging, and want
    to prevent security issues.
    - CVE-2013-6427

Thanks for considering the patch.
