I got to launch it again, so I have finish with a cron job like
*/10 * * * * systemctl status cups.service|grep -q 'inactive (dead)' &&
systemctl start cups
but it is a dirty solution. I have no idea of what make it stop.
NB: I have seen problems related to apparmor, this machine has no apparmor
package.
[Impact]
If you want to use the CUPS web interface in Xenial and therefore set
"WebInterface Yes" in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf, CUPS could auto-shutdown
when it is idle and then an attempt to access http://localhost:631/
via a web browser fails. People get confused as other access to CUPS
[Testcase]
Take a CUPS setup on Xenial with no shared print queues and CUPS only
listening on the domain socket. Activate the web interface via
cupsctl WebInterface=Yes
Now you are able to access the web interface via
http://localhost:631/. Wait for some minutes without accessing CUPS
until the CUPS daemon shuts down automatically. Try to open the web
interface again and it will not work.
With the fixed CUPS package CUPS will not auto-shutdown when the web
interface is activated.
[Regression Potential]
Low, as we are removing a simple distro patch to get back to the
original, upstream behavior.
[Regression in Pending SRU page]
* Regression in autopkgtest for c2esp (armhf): test log
This autopkgtest seems always fails :

* Regression in autopkgtest for libreoffice (i386): test log
It's a known issue, A regression in the kernel, which breaks libreoffice with
java enabled on i386 :
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1699772
... so until this is fixed upstream in the kernel and backported in an
ubuntu kernel, I'm afraid the only option is to just ignore the
failure.
