Not in the Debian packages, but the build process strips the s/guid bits
out until you explicity put them back in (since around 3.6.20 - July
2000)

I believe the default build does set these flags.

 Subject: LPRng: curious setuid

 Hello all:
 I was curious with lprng 3.7.4 on Solaris, hsould it be running setuid
 root? I remember some security issues in the past but I think that was
 with 3.6.something. Guuidance is greatly appreciated.

 Thanks,

 Phil
