Package: cupsys
Version: 1.1.23-10
Severity: normal
on upgrade of cupsys, you get asked questions about "diff y/n" to a
config file - cups.conf - that is RADICALLY altered by KDE and Gnome's
print managing programs, e.g. you can add browsing with the KDE print
manager, change admin and security settings etc.
this sort of thing is apparently "bad form" and may even be a debian
policy violation.
cups.conf should NOT be in /var/lib/dpkg/info/cupsys.conffiles.

Dear Debian User,
This bug report was submitted against a version of CUPS that is no
longer supported in Debian. Use of our limited, volunteer supported
resources is best served by not keeping around old, hardware-specific
and inactive bugs for longer than desirable, so the report is now being
closed.
You may, of course, wish to review the reported problem. It would be
appreciated if any future investigation could be conducted using the
testing or unstable distributions. If considered necessary, a new bug
report, possibly referencing this one, would be submitted. Please note
there are now separate cups and cups-filters packages.
Thank you for your report.
Regards,
Brian.
