Package: cups Version: 1.5.2-6 Severity: normal Hi,
I would like to report some unnecessary behaviour happened during updating cups package. During the update I was asked for root password for localhost for no reason appearently because I was logged in as root. On the top of it, I don't really think it verify any password written there, because first password, due to extraordinary question during update according to my experiencie, was just bunch of letters, but not password at all. Then I typed my real password for root, but it asked me again. So I typed something else and after that one more time and it continued to updating pdd files and successfully updated my system. It is weird at least to me, but there is lots of stuff weird to me. :) Here is a relevant part of update: Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd. Updating PPD files for cups ... Updating PPD files for cups-filters ... Updating PPD files for foomatic-db-compressed-ppds ... Updating PPD files for foomatic-db-engine ... Updating PPD files for c2esp ... Updating PPD files for escpr ... Updating PPD files for foo2zjs ... Updating PPD files for hpcups ... Password for root on localhost? And it is strange, that after first question to type the password, no more entries were made to /var/log/apt/term.log . Because the following were happening in terminal : Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd. Updating PPD files for cups ... Updating PPD files for cups-filters ... Updating PPD files for foomatic-db-compressed-ppds ... Updating PPD files for foomatic-db-engine ... Updating PPD files for c2esp ... Updating PPD files for escpr ... Updating PPD files for foo2zjs ... Updating PPD files for hpcups ... Password for root on localhost? Updating PPD files for hpijs ... Password for root on localhost? Password for root on localhost? Password for root on localhost? Password for root on localhost? Password for root on localhost? Updating PPD files for m2300w ... Updating PPD files for postscript-hp ... Updating PPD files for ptouch ... Updating PPD files for pxljr ... Updating PPD files for sag-gdi ... Updating PPD files for splix ... .... and so on but with different packages I do hope it is a bug, but if not I am sorry for wasting your time. :) I would like to say thank you very much for all your hard work and have a good day. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-1-rt-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages cups depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu1 ii bc 1.06.95-2+b1 ii cups-client 1.5.2-6 ii cups-common 1.5.2-6 ii cups-filters 1.0.2-1 ii cups-ppdc 1.5.2-6 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.41 ii dpkg 1.16.1.2 ii ghostscript 9.05~dfsg-3 ii libavahi-client3 0.6.31-1 ii libavahi-common3 0.6.31-1 ii libc6 2.13-27 ii libcups2 1.5.2-6 ii libcupscgi1 1.5.2-6 ii libcupsimage2 1.5.2-6 ii libcupsmime1 1.5.2-6 ii libcupsppdc1 1.5.2-6 ii libdbus-1-3 1.4.18-1 ii libgcc1 1:4.6.3-1 ii libgnutls26 2.12.16-1 ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.10+dfsg~beta1-2 ii libkrb5-3 1.10+dfsg~beta1-2 ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.28-1.1 ii libpam0g 1.1.3-7 ii libpaper1 1.1.24+nmu1 ii libslp1 1.2.1-9 ii libstdc++6 4.6.3-1 ii libusb-1.0-0 2:1.0.9~rc3-3 ii lsb-base 3.2+Debian30 ii poppler-utils 0.16.7-3 ii procps 1:3.3.2-3 ii ssl-cert 1.0.28 Versions of packages cups recommends: ii avahi-daemon 0.6.31-1 ii colord 0.1.16-2 ii foomatic-filters 4.0.13-1 ii ghostscript-cups 9.05~dfsg-3 ii printer-driver-gutenprint [cups-driver-gutenprint] 5.2.7-5 Versions of packages cups suggests: ii cups-bsd 1.5.2-6 ii cups-pdf <none> ii foomatic-db-compressed-ppds [foomatic-db] 20120212-1 ii hplip 3.12.2-1 ii smbclient 2:3.6.3-1 ii udev 175-3.1 -- Configuration Files: /etc/cups/cupsd.conf [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/etc/cups/cupsd.conf' -- debconf information: cupsys/raw-print: true cupsys/backend: ipp, lpd, socket, usb, snmp, dnssd -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
