Bug#626794: iceweasel: please remove the xprint Suggests

Package: iceweasel
Version: 4.0~b12-1
Severity: normal

Hi, thanks for supporting xprint from firefox/iceweasel all those
years ago.  To jog your memory, we needed xprint to support printing
internationl (nonlatin) webpages in firefox 2.  

Iceweasel/firefox 3 started using Cairo and Pango to handle printing
and internationalisation, so iceweasel doesn't need to Suggests: xprint 
anymore.

Xprint in fact is now deprecated upstream, no one uses it these days,
so I'm putting in a request to remove it from the Debian archives.

Thanks again for your xprint support!

Best regards,
Drew
