I do not want to change the flip_duplex of ppd_file_t. What I want to
tell is that libcups does not support the new cupsBackSide keyword. Now
to add support to the "cups" output device I would have to reparse the
whole PPD as the CUPS library does not support the keyword.
Or should I better recommend to the HPLIP developers (and other driver
developers) to use the deprecated cupsFlipDuplex?
