I'm happy to receive a patch or an update :-)

The Debian packages printfilters-ppd, magicfilter and apsfilter depend
or suggest the transfig package (needs to be renamed, but the new
fig2dev already provides transfig, so this still works).

magicfilter internally runs "/usr/bin/fig2dev -Lps -P -l dummy" if
someone tries to print a file that has a #FIG header.

apsfilter calls "fig2dev -Lps -c -z "$PAPERSIZE" | print_ps" to print
fig-Files (file detection via file(1)).

In printfilters-ppd I cannot find the fig2dev call.  The packages
depends on transfig (not only a suggest), but it seems that the build
mechanism is somewhat broken, so it isn't included...
