  FYI, here are the versions in the current Debian distributions. I
  was planning on upgrading to testing soon--here's another reason
  why:

    Debian package search results 

    Release  Package (size)
      stable apsfilter 5.1.4-1   (167.7k) 

	     A lineprinter input filter for systems with lpd/lpr

      testing apsfilter 6.0.0-1   (284.4k) 

	     Magic print filter with automatic file type recognition

     unstable apsfilter 6.0.0-1   (284.4k) 

	     Magic print filter with automatic file type recognition
