+foomatic-filters for Debian
+---------------------------
+
+Note that the structure of the OpenPrinting (foomatic) printer
+configuration system in Debian (and upstream) has changed from the 2.0
+series. There are now 3 core packages:
+
+* foomatic-db: Contains the foomatic printer database.
+
+* foomatic-db-engine: Contains the foomatic-configure script.
+
+* foomatic-filters (this package): Contains the filter scripts for
+ various backend printing systems.
+
+In addition, the new foomatic-db-hpijs package includes the database
+entries for printers supported by the HPIJS print filter developed by
+Hewlett-Packard for its consumer inkjet line of printers.
