As I needed to print, I tried to repair this problem. First I copied an
old cupsd.conf file I had in place of the updated one. No success. Then
I replaced all of my /etc/cups folder with the one I had from a Ubuntu
9.04 backup. Still same Child exited on signal 15! error.

Then I went in Synaptic and removed everything that was linked to CUPS.
Purge all files that I found using "sudo find / . -name cups".
Reinstalled CUPS from Synaptic : no success! But the error message was
now "Child exited on signal 1!".

The final and successful solution was to download the latest CUPS source
from their website and then make installing it. But it seems I lost the
print notification in the system tray when I print. Well, at least it
prints!
