Bug#848718: cups: 'dpkg-reconfigure cups' refers to the parallel backend
Package: cups
Version: 2.2.1-46-g10887d272-1
Severity: minor
Running 'dpkg-reconfigure cups' gets a user the information that some
PPC kernels crash with the parallel backend. That may have have been
correct some time ago; it may even be applicable now.
However, the parallel backend is not one of the listed backends (it is
now part of cups-filters) so there is nothing a user can do about it
from this dialog.
I would suggest the sentence "Unfortunately, some backends....." could
be removed without affecting the usefulness of the debconf process,
Regards,
