Bug#478280: /usr/bin/lppasswd: lppasswd is installed setuid 0

[Helmut Grohne <helmut@subdivi.de>]

Package: cupsys-client
Version: 1.3.7-5
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/lppasswd

$ man lppasswd

SECURITY ISSUES
       The lppasswd command is installed setuid to root. While every
       attempt has been made to make it secure against exploits that
       could  grant  super-user  privileges  to  unprivileged users,
       paranoid system administrators may wish to disable or  change
       the ownership of the program to an unprivileged account.  (So
       Debian installs lppasswd command with setuid to lp)
...
$ ls -la /usr/bin/lppasswd
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root lpadmin 11496 Apr 23 11:14 /usr/bin/lppasswd
$

Debian doesn't install lppasswd with setuid to lp. Please either fix the
manpage or the permission.
