Comment 13 for bug 444126

I just had somebody on IRC who had the same problem with a Canon Pixma IP3600 and the vendor-provided drivers.

There are two problems:
1. The driver packages from Canon have versioned dependencies, so the "Provides: libcupsys2" doesn't work.
From what I can see, it should be easy to build our own packages instead though, with corrected dependencies (they are i386-only and would have to go in multiverse though, because some libraries are binary-only).

2. in response to an e-mail from the person I spoke to, Canon answered:
"see our disclaimer about linux :Section 14 para93:We are quit working on linux driver please contact your linux distrubutor"
Nice, Canon, but the box that this person's printer came in says that it works with "Linux"...
