Did you replace the old CUPS configuration files with the maintainer's new versions when you upgraded? I think this is strongly recommended because of the changes in format. In any case, you need to fix your /etc/apt/sources.list. Something is seriously broken if you cannot install the current version of the cupsys package with apt(itude). Please post the output of the following three commands: grep '^deb ' /etc/apt/sources.list apt-cache policy cupsys aptitude -F "%p%V" search '~i~R^cups!~slibs' | sed 's/ \+/ = /' -- Regards, Florian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
