Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: cups

Just did a dist-upgrade to Intrepid beta.  I'd modified the CUPS config via the 
printing config application but the upgrade still presented me with a diff of 
the config file with the new one and asked me what to do.  For a non-technical 
user that is just not acceptable since a non technical user:
  - has no idea what CUPS is
  - has no idea what the config file is/does
  - has no idea how to interpret the file
  - has no way to know that the printing setup application has modified it on 
their behalf
  - has no idea whether the config file format has changed and so the old one 
cannot be kept
  - ultimately has no idea whether to keep it or not.

I'd expect any changes that I'd made via the printing manager
application to be automatically carried over.
