grave: "makes the package in question unusable or mostly so"
<rant>
Have I also mentioned that cups error reporting (or, more specifically,
the catastrophic lack of it) is a festering reeking maggot-ridden
mountain of suppurating shit?
You'd think it would be easy enough to log an error message like
"execve: /usr/lib/cups/filter/texttops: No such file or directory" to
bestow upon the humble sysadmin a clue as to *why* the document format
is not supported. But no, all I get is:

busy="Dirty files"
... leaving me to grovel though the configuration files and figure out
not just which step of cups' byzantine internal processes is not working,
but what those steps are in the first place!
There should be a log message somewhere explaining the sequence of filters
that cups chooses to apply, and detailed error output if any of them fail.
Maybe I could just go back to lprng + magicfilter...
