The 'unreproducible' tag lead to me re-test by installing from the alpha6 d-i (with no tasks) and installing printer-driver-cups-pdf. On purging the package the ppd was removed. In the light of the tag I thought it was just possible I had misobserved the behaviour on the other testing installation I was using (in spite of repeated testing) or it was caused by some other package. However, I thought I had deleted the partition holding the testing installation so decided I had nothing further to contribute and closed the bug. On reflection this action might be viewed as unhelpful and unmannerly. Apologies. It transpires I was mistaken and the partition was not touched. So trying 'lpstat -h localhost -v' gets zero output, which explains why the PDF queue was not deleted. On the other hand 'lpadmin -h localhost' does work. At first sight this looks like a bug in cups, but none of my other unstable installs behave like that. Time to look at how I might have fouled up that system. Regards, Brian.
