Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: cupsys

On hardy, CUPS (cupsys 1.3.7-1ubuntu3.1) is unable to listen on the network.
With the cupsd.conf.default used as cupsd.conf, the errors is this:
E [01/Dec/2008:09:53:21 +0100] Unable to open listen socket for address 
127.0.0.1:631 - Permission denied.
E [01/Dec/2008:09:53:21 +0100] Unable to create broadcast socket - Permission 
denied.

With a modified cupsd.conf (Listen *:631), the error is a bit different:
E [01/Dec/2008:10:31:29 +0100] Unable to open listen socket for address :::631 
- Permission denied.
E [01/Dec/2008:10:31:29 +0100] Unable to open listen socket for address 
0.0.0.0:631 - Permission denied.
E [01/Dec/2008:10:31:29 +0100] Unable to create broadcast socket - Permission 
denied.

In both cases, nothing else is bound to port 631. This problem also seems to 
cause CUPS being unable to detect printers on the network (I'd guess it uses 
broadcast for this, which does not work).
Please let me know if you need additional information.
