The 'unreproducible' tag lead to me re-test by installing from the alpha6
d-i (with no tasks) and installing printer-driver-cups-pdf. On purging
the package the ppd was removed. In the light of the tag I thought it
was just possible I had misobserved the behaviour on the other testing
installation I was using (in spite of repeated testing) or it was caused
by some other package.
However, I thought I had deleted the partition holding the testing
installation so decided I had nothing further to contribute and closed
the bug. On reflection this action might be viewed as unhelpful and
unmannerly. Apologies.
It transpires I was mistaken and the partition was not touched. So
trying 'lpstat -h localhost -v' gets zero output, which explains why
the PDF queue was not deleted. On the other hand 'lpadmin -h localhost'
does work.
At first sight this looks like a bug in cups, but none of my other
unstable installs behave like that. Time to look at how I might have
fouled up that system.
Regards,
Brian.
