Thanks, Elizabeth. The epson printer packages like many other 3rd party packages require the Ubuntu standard package lsb. Unfortunately, lsb is not yet available in 16.04; the developers are peddling as fast as they can. I was just wondering if anyone was aware of a schedule for introducing the packages which are defined to be part of the release. Actually, I forgot that I was using this 3rd party package! I can wait. The missing packages will probably show up by beta-1. I'll print with one of my other computers until then. <div class="gmail_quote">On Jan 18, 2016 12:10 PM, "Elizabeth K.

Xubuntu didn't participate in the Alpha 1, so we strictly speaking haven't had a milestone at all yet. > I am writing as I own an Epson XP-410 multifunction printer whose drivers > (Epson-proprietary and open software versions) are dependent on the package > lsb.

If I understand you correctly, are you saying these packages are not installable right now due to dependency issues? Or that they don't work with your printer because of a version problem? I don't have any insight here, just trying to get all the details. -- Elizabeth Krumbach Joseph || Lyz || pleia2 -- xubuntu-devel mailing list <a href="mailto:xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com">xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com</a> <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel</a> </blockquote></div>
