After about 10 hours of me pulling my hair out due to the complete and utter lack of documentation for GNOME2 and its Python bindings, I have produced "foomatic-gui". It does some rudimentary autodetection (click on "Add", make sure you have parport_pc or the kernel USB printer driver loaded, choose the interface, click "Forward" a lot).
Download URL: http://blog.lordsutch.com/foomatic-gui-0.1.tar.gz (probably not permanent). License: GPL. Probable future features/TODO: - Packaging as a .deb - Use GtkHTML (or whatever it's called) to render add foomatic database info for printers and drivers in the druid. - Better error handling - i18n; the code is marked, it just needs to actually have the po stuff run on it. - Managing instances for CUPS - A proper test page (instead of swiping the one from CUPS) There's nothing inherently Debian-specific about it, although the detect.py module is probably a bit Linux-centric.
