Bug Description
I'm using dapper 20060417.
Currently for most PostScript printers there is no driver avaiable in Ubuntu out of the box, therefore ubuntu-desktop should depend on package linuxprinting.

There are two possibilities:
- Add an appropriate dependency to ubuntu-desktop. For that this bug has to be moved to ubuntu-desktop and to be assigned to the maintainer of ubuntu-desktop (I assume that ubuntu-desktop is a meta package only containing dependencies and no files).
- Join the packages foomatic-db and linuxprinting. org-ppds. Upstream they are one package named foomatic-db.
WDYT should be done?
