Strange, my version is 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.2-3, the one before it in the
changelog was 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.2-2. Was your -2bpo1 a local or
experimental version?
But following the upstream discussion, I have been able to restore CUPS
(and postscript/default) by manually deleting all references to user
preferences "print.*" in prefs.js. Although the bug discussion
indicates the problem will return in a few weeks time.
Curiously, now that I can test them, I find that both of them are now
successfully printing the non-latin pages. I guess that means Xprint
will now fade in importance, but I'll keep maintaining it for the time
being.
