Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: cupsys-bsd
Printing by a networkprinter in ubuntu feisty (up to date with updates) gives
an error: no lpd in usr libs cups backend.
Made a symlink sudo ln /usr/lib/cups/backend-available/lpd
/usr/lib/cups/backend/
Printing through gnome-cups-manager -> print test page works after making a
symlink
Printing with other applications does not work. A gscript file is sent to cups
-spool but no action from the printer.
Previsiously, using lpd instead of cupsys-bsd worked fine with no problems.
De/re installing all cups packages and printerdrivers was not a solution.
Making a new printer definition through gnome-cups-manager did not work at all
(als under root). Had to use the old backup file from etc cups printerconf to
get back in the state " can only print testpages"
Looks something went wrong with the last 2 cups updates.
** Affects: cupsys (Ubuntu)
