I have both Zorin 15 and 16 installed ; but on Z16 the Epson install script fails to install driver for my Epson V300 Photo scanner:

Convenience functions to deal with *.deb packages
Given a list of possibly versioned dependency alternatives, echo the
name of the preferred package to install if the dependency isn't met
already. If the dependency is met, the empty string will be output.
This only works for dependencies that aim to add packages: Depends:,
Recommends: and Suggests:.
BUGS: The algorithm does not consider Provides:.
deb_to_install () {
candidate=
echo $* \
| sed 's/[()]//g; s/|/\n/g' \

candidate=
break
fi
if dpkg --compare-versions "$inst" "$op" "$ver"; then

break

}
Output the names of all packages that are listed as a requirement
(in a Depends:, Recommends: or Suggests: field) but not installed
yet.
