Bug#1111468: cups-client: lpstat does not report 'job-name' whatever the options used...
Package: cups-client
Version: 2.4.2-3+deb12u8
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

ineffective)?
* What was the outcome of this action?
* What outcome did you expect instead?q
What I did:
- I printed a file. It failed.
- I wanted to reprint it, but forgot its name.
- I managed to get the name of the file using the Gnome/GUI app System-Config-Printer. It's listed under "job-name"
- I'm now trying to do the same from CLI.
- I have tried with LP, LPQ, LPSTAT, using all possible options (verbose, etc.). None seem to have any option that gets the "job-name" printed
- SIDE NOTE: the apt package manager config is somewhat broken. I also installed LPRNG. It overwrites (CUPS-)lpstat with a tools that complains about /etc/printcap not existing. I purged the package, then I had to force reinstall (CUPS-)lpstat because /usr/bin/lpstat was removed and CUPS version not reinstalled...
