Package: cupsys
Version: 1.1.23-12
Severity: normal
When cupsd is running as unprivileged user like 'cupsys' by using
'RunAsUser' directive on cupsd.conf, /etc/init.d/cupsys (stop|restart)
does not work.
It's because of start-stop-daemon's '--user root' option. Just removing
this option, the problem could be fixed.

Yes.

RunAsUser is officially removed from upstream source.
Although Debian CUPS source package has RunAsUser patch, we don't enable
it to avoid any privilege problems.
You can build with --enable-privilege-dropping configure option to enable
this feature.
