Hello,

I would like to ask you to backport a newer version of 
system-config-printer to jessie-backports. The reason is that now CUPS 
2.2 is in jessie-backports, which breaks system-config-printer. The 
problem is described in bug #791705 and was obviously fixed in 
system-config-printer 1.4.8-1, according to the changelog.

Unfortunately, I cannot find that version anywhere to test it. The SVN 
repository linked from the PTS page seems to be broken or has moved.

The version currently in stretch needs several python3 packages which 
are not in jessie, so this does not seem to be an easy solution.

Thank you very much,

Andreas Heinlein
