Bug#745838: cups: usb printer stopping printing anything after testing upgrade - Unable to send data to printer
clone 745838 -1
reassign -1 libusbmuxd2 1.0.9-1
retitle -1 libusbmuxd2: breaks cups for some USB printers: causes LIBUSB_ERROR_PIPE
thanks
I hadn't noticed: usbmuxd and libusbmuxd2 have split into separate
packages. I had upgraded both when this bug appeared: usbmuxd to
1.0.8-5 and libusbmuxd2 to 1.0.9-1: I don't know which is the guilty
party, or maybe it's some sort of interaction between them?
