Package: cups-browsed Version: 1.21.6-4 Severity: normal With etckeeper on a laptop that often is taken around to different networks, I see lines like these on apt-get --purge dist-upgrade all the time:
[master 48dee15] saving uncommitted changes in /etc prior to apt run […] create mode 100644 cups/ppd/pr_bn_1og_Brother_HL_L8250CDN_Laser_Colour_Duplex_172_2.ppd […] So, these files are autogenerated and not created then changed by the local admin. (They are also automatically deleted). There’s a place for such files in the filesystem standard, and it’s /var/lib not /etc. Please move this stuff out of /etc, TYVM. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers buildd-unstable APT policy: (500, 'buildd-unstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=C (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/lksh Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages cups-browsed depends on: ii cups-daemon 2.2.10-5 ii libavahi-client3 0.7-4+b1 ii libavahi-common3 0.7-4+b1 ii libavahi-glib1 0.7-4+b1 ii libc6 2.28-8 ii libcups2 2.2.10-5 ii libcupsfilters1 1.21.6-4 ii libglib2.0-0 2.58.3-1 ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.47+dfsg-3 ii lsb-base 10.2019031300 Versions of packages cups-browsed recommends: ii avahi-daemon 0.7-4+b1 cups-browsed suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
