For what it's worth, the fact that it now removed the AuthInfoRequired line (which I merely commented out when editing the file with nano) finally resulted in the desired configuration. The fact that the file gets overwritten and changes are lost is still a problem, though.
Previously -- led by the DO NOT EDIT comment at the top -- I would do /etc/init.d/cups stop; nano /etc/cups/printers.conf; /etc/init.d/cups/start; maybe these commands are incorrect (i.e. maybe I should use invoke-rc.d instead)? -- Rewrites /etc/cups/printers.conf every night https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/627287 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
