Not now there isn't.
In the beginning cups-bsd was seen as the package to contain the cups-bsd
daemon and configure it:
cupsys (1.1.0-0b3d1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream version.
* Daemon 'cups-lpd' (new to this version) added to cupsys-bsd, with
appropriate update-inetd calls, so cupsys-bsd is now a complete
replacement for lpr.

Then the view changed:
cupsys (1.3.7-5) unstable; urgency=low
* debian/cupsys-bsd.install: Remove daemon/cups-lpd. It really does not
belong into -bsd.

The man pages seem to have started life in the cupsys package because:
cupsys (1.1.12-4) unstable; urgency=low
* Move cups-lpd man page to cupsys-bsd. Closes: #122311.
Then the executable was moved! Perhaps one day it will be reunited with
its manuals and they will live happily together ever after. :)

Brian.
