Package: cupsys Version: 1.2.7-4etch2 Severity: normal
After installing a plain etch last year (4.0r0) and just now after upgrading cups to 1.2.7 it was impossible to print to a printer connected to /dev/lp0, even so I'm a member of the 'lp'-group: crw-rw---- 1 root lp 6, 0 2008-01-20 20:01 /dev/lp0 Setting permissions to 666 of /dev/lp0 helped up to the next reboot. In my case, the problem could be solved setting the group of usr/lib/cups/backend/parallel to 'lp' and setting the GID-Bit (chmod 2755 parallel): -rwxr-sr-x 2 root lp 13K 2007-12-24 22:50 parallel Thus I'm able to print again, probably up to the next cupsys-update and hopefully beyond...
