Package: cups
Version: 1.3.10-2
Severity: important
I got
merom:/home/richard# tail -1 /var/log/cups/error_log
E [27/Jun/2009:12:54:21 +0200] [cups-driverd] Unable to write
"/var/cache/cups/ppds.dat" - Permission denied
after installing ghostscript-cups (printing was broken with missing
pdftoraster before that).
chmod g+rw /var/cache/cups/ppds.dat
fixed that, but why is it necessary to do this by hand?

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, this report
could be re-opened or a new bug report, possibly referencing this one,
submitted. Please note there are now separate cups and cups-filters
packages.
Thank you for your report.
Regards,
Brian.
