Package: foomatic-bin
Version: 2.0-20020911-0.4
Severity: normal


Hi,

while running under 'sudo -s' foomatic-kitload is unable to install a
set of drivers for the lexmark z32. However, after a 'su -' it does
its work as it should ...

Doesn't look like wanted behavior ...?

Regards, 
 Michael Eyrich

Hi,

I am sorry that nobody took care of this bug. It was filed for an old version of the package and probably fixed in a later upload.

If you can reproduce it with the current version in unstable/testing please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.

Best regards,
Thorsten
