I had a problem with CUPS which caused documents to be printed over and over 
forever.  I removed all of cups including all directories and files,  and 
then re-installed it.  After the installation, I was unable to add SMB 
printers.  I found that the link /usr/lib/cups/backend/smb was missing.  
After creating it using ln -s `which smbspool` /usr/lib/cups/backend/smb 
everything worked.

I had a look at the rpms, cups, cups-common, libcups1 and none of them appear 
to create this link.  Is there a reason why?  

Is there another package which creates this link when it is installed?

Or is this link only created by the initial installation of the system?

regards
Dave
