I did as John Stiles instructs in post #18 and worked ok at the first attempt
in my Linux Mint Julia edition (based on Ubuntu Maverick Meerkat).
Thanks a lot to John for this clear and simple workaround.

SOLVED by the easiest way (Disabling cups apparmor profile)
Run these commands ...
mkdir $HOME/PDF
mkdir $HOME/PDF
sudo mv /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.cupsd /etc/apparmor.d/disable/.
sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor

I had nearly same problem in karmic. I already had the PDF directory in
my $HOME. Before updating to karmic, this worked normal.
Since karmic, I couldn't create PDF, too. I got logs like this.

The problem seems to be occurring in the prepareuser function of

I can't get it to work even if I create the PDF directory first. cups-

Oh, I see. But I don't really want to give DAC_OVERRIDE to cups-pdf,
it's crackful enough as it is, and DAC_OVERRIDE is very powerful. The
actual creation of ~/PDF works just fine for me (/home/martin/PDF), at
least it did in Hardy (we don't install cups-pdf by default any more).

Martin Pitt : This bug does not exist in Hardy, you're right. However,
this bug is always reproducible in intrepid with standard home folders.

Saivann, right, but the apparmor profile lives in the cups package
