Hi Paul, I'm reading your bugreport http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=372270 right now, as it will probably hit me when etch releases (for now I'm using a backport of samba on sarge, and thus have CUPS 1.1, which does not seem to have the problem).
You write that "The problem is of course that making smbspool 0700 in the .deb means it can't be used by non-priviliged users, which is pretty much everyone except those trying to use the kinda-hacky kerberos support in smbspool." Why is that so? Is the binary meant to be run by another program but CUPS? If not, it should still work fine even with out kerberos, only that smbspool will run as root, not as lp, which should not be a problem (unless security wise)? If there actually is a different use for smbspool, then why not install two copies, one with the regular permissions in /usr/bin/smbspool, and one with 700 in /usr/lib/cups/backends/smb Or am I missing something?
