Package: lprng
Version: 3.8.28-2
Severity: important

Any remote print jobs coming in seem to make the lpd spooler just hang.
Typing 'lpc lpq <printername>' will hang until I kill it
This hanging on lpc commands starts just a few minutes after print jobs
start coming in.  If enough come in before the lpc command hangs, lpc
will show the jobs as 'incoming'.  The complete job will be received --
verified with ethereal -- and can be seen in a file named 'tempxxxx' in
the printer spool directory, but never gets turned into a data file
with the dfA* naming convention, and the remote system evidently never
gets a success code returned, because it sends the same job again.

To top it all off, this happens on kernel-image-2.6.8-1-686-smp or
kernel-image-2.6.3-1-686-smp, but everything works just fine on
kernel-image-2.4.25-1-686-smp.

This bug is about 3 years old and there have been multiple version 
updates.  I could not reproduce the bug back then and would have no
chance of doing it now.  closing bug.
