I check my /etc/alternatives dir, it was empty. I had to rpm -U --force
lpr package to have the scripts executed, as rpm -F was not enough. So
now it seems to be OK here.
Now i got blank pages printed, with "No spool file found" error message
from the printer. Queuing jobs in local spool list is OK (i checked with
lpd down), but transmission seems to be wrong.

Here what i found in /var/log/urpmi.log
Tue Aug 29 15:01:12 2000 urpmi called with --auto rhs-printfilters
/var/lib/urpmi/depslist.ordered file not found, run urpmi.addmedia first
And in /var/log/messages
ao� 29 15:01:05 agathe DrakX: trying to load fr_FR.po from ./po.cz2
The first one is curious : why does urpmi try to install an
already-installed package (rhs-printfilters), and why does it ask to add
a new media to produce an ordered dependences list ?
The second not sufficient to determine if it is a warning or an error
causing printerdrake to abort.
