Yes, cupsys-driver-gutenprint does need updating to meet the specification. However, the PPDs are generated by /usr/sbin/cups-genppd.5.0 and /usr/sbin/cups-genppdconfig.5.0 and auto-updated by /usr/sbin/cups-genppdupdate.5.0, and this will need some work to update and test. As an interim solution, a symlink will be the best solution, but I'll have a look at fixing it properly this weekend. Thanks, Roger -- .''`.
