bug#63198: cups-service-type uses PAM-enabled 'cups' by default which prevents authentication

[muradm]

This change broke cups for me like this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

cups-minimal does not include ippfind utility.


Maybe that was your original issue?

from above and "prevents users from authenticating" from commit

Could you please elaborate more on "loop on authenticating my user" message? Does it mean that you could not authenticate as your user at all, or does it relates to authentication at http://localhost:631

for managing printers?
