Bug#263430: kaddprinterwizard stomps on cupsys defaults



Hi all!

I can confirm that with the latest kdelibs-bin from sarge (4:3.3.1-4 0)
that the group of /etc/cups/cupsd.conf is changed from lpadmin to sys
upon changing anything in the print-server dialogue box with
kaddprinterwizard.

Additionally, kaddprinterwizard changes the DocumentRoot of the www
interface to CUPS from the compiled-in default
(/usr/share/cups/doc-root) to /usr/share/cups/doc,, breaking all the
online help and all the images in the www admin interface (making it
very hard to work out what is going on).

Note that if the value of DocRoot is already set within the CUPS config
file then the value is respected, it is just that the debian compilation
of CUPS has a different set of default values for these variables than
kaddprinterwizard.


The result is that one has to make a decision to either *only* use
kaddprinterwizard or *only* use the web interface to CUPS. At the least
this should be *very* clearly enunciated to the user, but preferably
they should play nicely with each other.

thanks!
Stuart
