Package: cupsys-bsd
Version: 1.2.7-4etch2
Severity: important
We have cupsys-client and cupsys-bsd installed on client machines
without the cupsys package. Using lpr to print on these machines fails
because the /var/spool/cups/tmp directory (which is managed by the
cupsys package) does not exist. It seems this directory should be
maintained by the libcupsys package, not the cupsys package?
Creating the missing directory with the correct permissions has solved
the problem, so this should be an easy fix.
Regards,
Tim
