See
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=164991#c7

I updated manufacturer-PPDs and hplip to have the fixed PPDs
installed and YaST shows the popup about re-build of its
printer database and theer was ineed a new model
"LaserJet 5Si MX" but nevertheless I still got a PostScript PPD
when I selected the "LaserJet 5Si".

After "rm /var/lib/YaST2/ppd_db.ycp" it worked (i.e. no
PostScript PPD for the "LaserJet 5Si").

Therefore I assume something is wrong with the
"model name -> PPD files" mapping when PPDs change.
I guess that obsolete relations "model name -> PPD file"
are not removed.

Closing old LATER+REMIND bugs as WONTFIX - if you still plan to work on it, feel free to reopen and set to ASSIGNED.

In case the report saw repeated reopen comments, it's due to bugzilla timing out on the huge request ;(
