Bug Description

Pull request #247 to the upstream system-config-printer project removes the dependency on python3-requests:

https://github.com/OpenPrinting/system-config-printer/pull/247

As I understand it, this is the last dependency on python3-requests in the default desktop image:

https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/germinate-output/ubuntu.jammy/rdepends/requests/python3-requests

so backporting this change would allow the removal of python3-requests (and probably python3-chardet and python3-idna) from the desktop image.

Thanks very much for your time.

I have asked the upstream maintainer, Zdenek Dohnal, to spin a release before 22.04 FF. This would be much better than a backport.

I have done the 1.5.16 release now:

I will update the Ubuntu package of s-c-p before FF.

Uploaded system-config-printer 1.5.16 to Jammy. This should solve the problem.
