Bug Description

[edit: This bug originally referred to libgnomeprint2.2-0, but has been updated.]

There are still a few packages that depend on libcupsys2, which is a dummy package. I know that's what dummy packages are for, but I'm filing this bug as a reminder to update the dependencies.

This is on an up-to-date Intrepid. I've attached to bug to libgnomecups because that's what I have installed at the moment; should I link it to all packages below?

$ aptitude search '?depends(libcupsys2)'
p eggcups - notification area icon for printing jobs
p flphoto - Image manager with great printing function
p kdelibs5-dev - development files for the KDE 4 core libra
p libfox-1.6-0 - The FOX C++ GUI Toolkit
p libfox-1.6-dev - Development files for the FOX C++ GUI Tool
p libfox1.4 - The FOX C++ GUI Toolkit
p libfox1.4-dev - Development files for the FOX C++ GUI Tool
i A libgnomecups1.0-1 - GNOME library for CUPS interaction
p libgnomecups1.0-dev - GNOME library for CUPS interaction (header
p libnet-cups-perl - Provides an interface for printing with CU

changing the description on this libgnomeprint doesn't make sense, the summary doesn't match the bug now, you should better open other bugs about the remaining issues
