Ooops, sorry for the mistake, I wanted to say Package cups-pdf.
I have suffered a problem with similar symptoms to bug #301406. But in my system the problem afects all users including root:Sun Aug 14 01:17:46 2005 [ERROR] failed to set file mode for PDF file (/root/cups-pdf/Test_Page.pdf)Another issue here is whether you indeed are on a Debian system or on Ubuntu. Some settings must be changed to be able to use cups-pdf on Ubuntu, otherwise cups-pdf indeed cannot set the permissions, because Ubuntu maintainers modified it to run as a non-root user.
This is a Debian Sarge.
But: cupsys only recommends gs-esp. I think this is related to bug #312244 . I think one of cupsys or cups-pdf must depend on ghostscript to make the package functional and to avoid the problem and the confusing messages in the cups-pdf.logAfter some experimenting I've found that installing the package gs-gpl, and restarting the virtual printer after that, seems to solve the problem.Are cupspdf or cupsys packages dependant from gs?cupsys depends on gs-eps, which provides the Ghostscript we need.
