Package: cupsys
Version: 1.3.0-3
Severity: important

When adding a remote printer via CUPS, it looks for ppd file into
/opt/share/ppd, which is not correct, from error_log:

E [27/Aug/2007:12:37:14 -0500] [cups-driverd] Unable to open PPD directory "/opt/share/ppd": No such file or directory

I had to insert the ppd location by hand,

/usr/share/ppd/foomatic-rip/linuxprinting.org-gs-builtin/Samsung/Samsung-ML-2010-gdi.ppd.gz

This is one of many locations from which CUPS looks for PPD.  That
none exist there by default is normal, since the /opt hierarchy is
meant for third-party packages.

In other words, this is not a bug.
