Bug#799042: cups-client: lpoptions no longer outputs anything
Package: cups-client
Version: 1.7.5-11+deb8u1
Severity: normal
At my lab, a machine has been reinstalled with Debian 8, and as I was
getting the following error:
cassis:~> lpq
lpq: Error - no default destination available.
zsh: exit 1 lpq
I wanted to know what was going on with lpoptions, but it returns
nothing:
cassis:~> lpoptions
cassis:~>
In strace output, I can see:
[...]
41018 open("/home/vlefevre/.cups/lpoptions", O_RDONLY) = 5
41018 fcntl(5, F_GETFD) = 0
41018 fcntl(5, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0
41018 read(5, "Default lip-multi-1 ColorModel=G"..., 4096) = 107
41018 read(5, "", 4096) = 0
41018 close(5) = 0
41018 exit_group(0) = ?
41018 +++ exited with 0 +++
so that the right file is read, but nothing happens.
My .cups/lpoptions file is:
Default lip-multi-1 ColorModel=Gray Resolution=1200dpi
Dest lip-multi-3 ColorModel=Gray Resolution=1200dpi
Note: concerning the lpq error, the reason seems to be that the
printer is no longer available in the queue given by "lpstat -a".
