Mario, thank you for the detailed analysis. This is really helpful. I wonder though if the right fix would be to have cups-pk-helper run as lpadmin, rather than root? I'm not familiar with the details though, so I don't know if that would work or is possible. If the goal in having lpadmin is to reduce things that must be root, then perhaps this is the right answer though?
This probably does need sending up to Debian and getting their opinion. In particular I don't want to inadvertently compromise security by just making something run as root. Till, do you have any opinion? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to cups in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/934291 Title: Deleting or stopping print jobs does not work Status in gnome-control-center: Incomplete Status in cups package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Deleting or stopping print jobs through the "gnome-control-center -> printers" menu is not possible.
