Package: cupsys Version: 1.2.0 We're getting a bunch of complaints, mainly from Ubuntu users, that the CUPS web interface is crippled by default - you can't add printers, etc. without adding users to the shadow and lpadmin group.
CUPS includes customizable web interface content, and we highly recommend that ALL Linux distributions at least update the "Standard Configuration" help file (doc/help/standard.html.in) to provide the details of your customizations. You can also update the standard help page templates (templates/help-header.tmpl and templates/(locale)/help-header.tmpl) and/or the home page files (doc/index.html.in and doc/(locale)/index.html.in), or even add Debian-specific help file(s) in the /usr/share/doc/cups/help directory. In short, please put the instructions for enabling all of the CUPS web interface in a more visible place. It will save all of us a lot of wasted time!
