I'll bite. It does. Install a print daemon (lpr(ng)), install anything else that's even remotely related to printing, it drags in CUPS, and CUPS blows away lpr(ng). Nice. Bug report submitted (Bug#431725), but I don't hold out much hope for lpr*. CUPS is cool and pointy-clicky. -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
