[Bug 40795] Re: cannot write /var/cache/cups/ppds.dat

[joosteto]

I just tried on the live Ubuntu 6.06 CD:

  dpkg --force-depends -i hplip_0.9.11-2_i386.deb hplip-
data_0.9.11-2_all.deb

but that didn't solve the problem. Unfortunately the debian unstable
packages want to pull in different python and libc versions, so I
haven't tried using apt-get or friends.

To resume:
  Ubuntu 6.06: problem as described above
  Debian-testing (as of last weeks): Same problem.
  Debian-unstable (tried hplip-0.9.11-2): Works OK.
  Ubuntu 5.10: Works OK.
