Bug#681851: [Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#681851: escputil: requires module usblp which is blacklisted by CUPS
Didier 'OdyX' Raboud [2012-07-20 8:25 +0200]: Dear CUPS maintainers, as far as I understand our buglist, lifting the usblp blacklisting in Wheezy as was done in src:cups 1.5.3-4 would probably solve #681851 in src:gutenprint, #663868 in src:foo2zjs . But a) cups FTBFS on mips since 1.5.3-2, and b), the 1.5.3-3 diff is probably too big for Wheezy. So what are your plans for wheezy ? For the record -- there are no real Debian cups maintainers at the moment. Till is working on Ubuntu, and I haven't had an actual printer (nor real interest in it) for several years now. Unfortunately the RFA [1] has not gotten any action in three years :( It might actually be better to formally orphan the package in Debian to point this out more clearly. I'm still happy to sponsor Till's uploads into Debian, as I believe that so far this was better than letting it bitrot for several years.

Package: escputil Version: 5.2.8-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, to obtain ink levels from my USB printer (EPSON Stylus Photo P50) escputil needs access to the device /dev/usb/lp0 which is created by the module usblp, but this module is blacklisted by CUPS I tried using the raw device /dev/bus/usb/005/003 but it doesn't work either: Kann nicht auf /dev/bus/usb/005/003 schreiben: Das Argument ist ungültig (Cannot write to /dev/bus/usb/005/003 : The argument is invalid) After manually loading the module usblp escputil works fine, also CUPS still seems to be working. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages escputil depends on: ii libc6 2.13-33 ii libgutenprint2 5.2.8-1 ii libreadline66.2-8 ii libtinfo5 5.9-10 escputil recommends no packages.
