Hello distro maintainers:
Plasma Print Manager makes use of the system-config-printer (s-c-p)
package—specifically the dbus service it provides for both grouping
physical devices and recommending driver options. This has been
optional, but for Plasma 6.1 we'd like to make it required to ensure a
better all-around UX.
On some distros it appears that the s-c-p project is split into 3 or 4
sub-packages (SUSE*), but on others, everything seems to be all included
in just one package (FreeBSD).
Our requirement is only the dbus-service component of s-c-p. We
therefore recommend splitting the dbus-service component out into it's
own package and only and making that package a dependency for Print
Manager in Plasma 6.1.
Any suggestions welcome.
thanks,
Mike
