Package: cups
Version: 1.3.8-1
Severity: normal

Upon a fresh boot, samba can see all printers fine as evidenced by

#rpcclient  -c enumprinters localhost

However, if samba is restarted, I see the following message repeated 5 times in 
/var/log/cups/error_log:

E [22/Aug/2008:02:51:12 -0700] Unsupported character set "iso-8859-1"!

and the command above returns no printers. I found that it was necessary to add

   display charset = UTF8

into /etc/samba/smb.conf to force samba to use utf8 even if the system default 
is iso-8859-1. 

That seems to fix things. I would speculate that the reason samba sees
printers on boot is that it is started before the default system locale
is applied. 

It would be nice if the above fix were not necessary.

Version: 2:3.3.0~rc1-1

This bug was fixed upstream in 3.3.0rc1, as well as 3.2.6. Hence
closing with version tagging. In short, the bug is still in lenny but
is no more in experimental and will not be in sid....as soon as we
upload 3.3.x to sid, after lenny release.
