As far as I can see the smb backend (which is a symlink) is owned by the
smbclient package. The pap script for CUPS and the executable should
probably be in the same package since the script is useless without the
binary. A dependency of netatalk (or e.g. netatalk-client) on cups also
makes more sense than a dependency of CUPS on netatalk, IMHO.
BTW, I already see a "Personal LaserWriter 320 v2013.112 (en)" in the
CUPS admin... Seems to be /usr/share/cups/model/apple/aplw3201.ppd.gz in
the cups-drivers-1.1-51mdk package. Are you talking about a different
LaserWriter, Jeroen?
