Package: cups Version: 1.5.2-5 Severity: wishlist cups currently ships cupsd.conf as a conffile with hand-written contents. As soon as cups is started, however, it replaces this file with its own version, which removes some options that are set to their default values, removes the comments, changes the white space and so on. The result is that it's no longer useful to perform a diff between the shipped cupsd.conf and the current one, making conffile prompts much less useful than they would otherwise be.
Please ship a copy of cupsd.conf as written out by a default installation of cups to work around this problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (530, 'testing'), (520, 'unstable'), (510, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages cups depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu1 ii bc 1.06.95-2+b1 ii cups-client 1.5.2-5 ii cups-common 1.5.2-5 ii cups-filters 1.0.2-1 ii cups-ppdc 1.5.0-13 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.41 ii dpkg 1.16.1.2 ii ghostscript 9.05~dfsg-2 ii libavahi-client3 0.6.30-6 ii libavahi-common3 0.6.30-6 ii libc6 2.13-26 ii libcups2 1.5.0-13 ii libcupscgi1 1.5.0-13 ii libcupsimage2 1.5.0-13 ii libcupsmime1 1.5.0-13 ii libcupsppdc1 1.5.0-13 ii libdbus-1-3 1.4.18-1 ii libgcc1 1:4.6.2-12 ii libgnutls26 2.12.16-1 ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.10+dfsg~beta1-2 ii libkrb5-3 1.10+dfsg~beta1-2 ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.28-1.1 ii libpam0g 1.1.3-7 ii libpaper1 1.1.24+nmu1 ii libslp1 1.2.1-9 ii libstdc++6 4.6.2-12 ii libusb-1.0-0 2:1.0.9~rc3-3 ii lsb-base 3.2-28.1 ii poppler-utils 0.16.7-3 ii procps 1:3.2.8-11 ii ssl-cert 1.0.28 Versions of packages cups recommends: pn avahi-daemon 0.6.30-6 pn colord 0.1.16-2 pn cups-driver-gutenprint <none> pn foomatic-filters <none> pn ghostscript-cups <none> Versions of packages cups suggests: ii cups-bsd 1.5.2-5 ii cups-pdf <none> ii foomatic-db-compressed-ppds | foomatic-db <none> ii hplip <none> ii smbclient 2:3.6.3-1 ii udev 175-3.1 -- Configuration Files: /etc/cups/cupsd.conf [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/etc/cups/cupsd.conf' -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
