[Bug 802304] Re: Take hplip-gui into the standard installation/live session of Ubuntu/Edubuntu

[Martin Pitt]

This still needs work, though:

 - It pulls gksu back in, which we don't want by default. Programs
should use PolicyKit (pkexec if they must, but preferrably a privileged
D-Bus backend which checks polkit privileges)

 - It pulls PyQt4 in, which is deprecated -- this should be ported to
Qt5.

Bug description:
  Now, where Ubuntu/Xubuntu/Edubuntu (Oneiric) has Qt on the desktop CD,
  we can get the full functionality of HP's printer driver suite HPLIP
  into the GNOME-based flavors of Ubuntu. We only need to seed hplip-gui
  and users get the HP Toolbox (hp-toolbox), the GUI for sending faxes
  (hp-sendfax), the GUI for the automatic download of firmware files
  (hp-plugin), ...

  So we should add hplip-gui to the desktop seeds.
