Bug description:
  Impact
  =======
  Users who upgraded Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 LTS to Ubuntu GNOME 16.10 using do-release-upgrade (update-manager too because it calls do-release-upgrade) had system-config-printer-gnome uninstalled. system-config-printer-gnome is required for the Printers panel of the Settings app to work.

  Test Case
  =========
  Ensure that gnome-control-center depends on system-config-printer-gnome.

  Regression Potential
  ====================
  Unless someone has a reason to not want system-config-printer-gnome installed, there doesn't seem to be any regression potential here.

  Other Info
  ==========
  I (jbicha) am not applying this change to zesty now, because I want to merge system-config-printer with Debian first so that gnome-control-center can depend on system-config-printer-common instead of system-confg-printer-gnome.

  Original Bug Report
  ===================
  I've a freshly-installed Ubuntu GNOME 16.04.1 LTS system that I upgraded to 16.10 using 'sudo do-release-upgrade' in a terminal[*].  The upgrade process removed system-config-printer-gnome, which I've discovered today, when my attempts to configure a new printer failed with an unhelpful error message.

  /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log (and I hope ubuntu-bug will attach it to
  this bug) indicates that system-config-printer-gnome was removed
  because (the old version of) it depended on packagekit-system-
  interface, which is not in yakkety.

  [*] because six months earlier when I used the GUI update-manager to
  upgrade an Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 system to 16.04 LTS I had a lot of pain
  related to the GUI bits (the screensaver-won't-unlock-post-gnome-
  shell-upgrade bug, and the update-manager-UI-freezes-on-ctrl-shift-I
  bug).
