[Impact]
The most intuitive way for users to maintain printers and look after
print jobs is the printing part of the GNOME Control Center. As this
tool makes use of cups-pk-helper for authentication, a lot of its
functionality is not working dur to the non-working in cups-pk-helper
package.
This way a key functionality in Ubuntu Desktop is not working which
may people turn away from Linux on the desktop.
[Test Case]
Do job operations (remove, move to other printer, ...) with print jobs
using the printing tool of GNOME Control Center ("Devices" ->
"Printers"). You will see that most or all of these operations do not
work.
They will work after installing this update.
[Regression Potential]
cups-pk-helper is only used by some graphical user interfaces for
printer operations, like the mentioned GNOME tool. It does not impact
printing itself, CUPS command line operations, or the CUPS web admin
interface.
Also the changes on cups-pk-helper are not done in its code or its way
how it works but only in its configuration (using a system user).
This way the regression potential is low.
