Comment 27 for bug 302272

I'm happy to report that "apt-get install [kx]?ubuntu-desktop cups-" now works on Oneiric! Thanks to everyone who made this happen.

The below four packages are still in Depends:, and are probably not useful in an installation lacking a local printer, but they have a smaller footprint:

    foomatic-db-compressed-ppds
    foomatic-filters
    openprinting-ppds
    pnm2ppa

(Of these, pnm2ppa is the most notable, since it asks debconf questions---which in turn are relevant only to users with certain models of HP printers.)
