Install Gnome-Manual-Duplex in 20.04

  • 772

Until I upgraded to 20.04 I used Gnome-Manual-Duplex to print front to back on my HP laserjet.

However this package depends on python-gamin and python-cups which are no longer available in the repos.

How do I re-install Gnome-Manual-Duplex and its dependencies in Focal Fossa?

    You still can download and install it by using dependencies from 19.10:

    cd ~/Downloads
wget http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/python-cups/python-cups_1.9.73-2build2_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install -y ./python-cups_1.9.73-2build2_amd64.deb

wget http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gamin/python-gamin_0.1.10-5build1_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install -y ./python-gamin_0.1.10-5build1_amd64.deb

wget http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/pygtk/python-gtk2_2.24.0-6_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install -y ./python-gtk2_2.24.0-6_amd64.deb

wget https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/g-manual-duplex/gnome-manual-duplex_0.70_all.deb
sudo apt-get install -y ./gnome-manual-duplex_0.70_all.deb

    and use it as before.
