[wellylug] I Found a bug! [a little one in a PPD file for CUPS]

Hello all,

I was kindly given Brother HL-1240 for free.  I had problems getting it
to print using cups/foomatic/ghostscript installed using apt-get for
debian woody. Following the troubleshooting instructions at
linuxprinting.org I found and fixed the problem.

The problem is in the HL-1240-hl1250 PPD file.  Line #338 should read
'hl1250' not hl1240.

I have 2 questions:

1.  Is it worth telling the debian and/or cups people?  Given that woody
is now quite old and this is a teeny little problem.
2.  Who would I tell?  

Thanks,

Leslie

PS: I love it when problems are solved!
