I had printing with CUPS working on my debian machine. Then I played with
several new software packages. Then I could not print from my debian
machine. I could still print from MS machines. On the debian machine, I
removed the printer and reinstalled it using KDE Control Center. Now I can
print from the debian machine again. The printer is a Samba shared printer to
the Debian machine. Physically, the printer is hanging off of an MS machine.
Has anybody else had an experience like this?
I am inclined to to think that installing and removing packages (or rpms) can
degrade a working system. If so, what is the probability of it happening?
(likely, maybe, infrequently)
Is it common practice on this list to have a regression test that is run
after each upgrade on a machine?
