Hi,

I have added the Braille support and today discussed it with the Ubuntu folks, and there we came to the conclusion to move Braille into a separate binary package named cups-filters-braille. I was about to do this now.

Especially in Ubuntu the new dependencies would need a move of packages from the Canonical-usupported part "Universe" to the supported part "Main" which requires security reviews of these packages.

So we decided to have the separate cups-filters-braille binary package which in Ubuntu will reside in "Universe". It can be promoted to "Main" there but then not by me but by the accessibility guys.

Hi,

the latest update of cups-filters wants to pull liblouisutdm1-bin which
in turn installs ~10Mb of additional dependencies.
Since I don't use any Braille drivers, it would be great if those
dependencies could be demoted to suggests or recommends or pulled in via
other means (e.g. via a task).
