Package: cupsys-client

Severity: minor
File: /usr/sbin/lpadmin
Tags: upstream

If the user is not root, this is asked over and over, no matter what
one types: root or user passwd, ^C, ^D

$ /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p epson -E -v parallel:/dev/lp0 -m stcolor.ppd
Password for jidanni on localhost?
Password for jidanni on localhost?...

It should detect that the user is not valid before asking.

Hello,

Some (long) time ago you filed this bug against cupsys or a related 
package. In the meantime the cupsys package has been renamed to cups and 
this bug was "lost". Since the bug is already quite old now it is being 
closed.

If the issue you encountered is still present in recent cups packages 
(as released with Debian 7.0 wheezy for example) the CUPS maintainers 
would very much appreciate a fresh report using:

    reportbug <package>

You should also mention the number of this bug if you think it contains 
valuable information.

Please note that further information sent to this bug is likely to 
remain unread, because the bug is currently not assigned to any existing 
package.


Thank you for for trying to improve Debian by reporting bugs.

Kind regards,
Andrei (with no relation to CUPS maintenance)
