Public bug reported:
If the file `/etc/default/cups` does not exist, or it contains
`LOAD_LP_MODULE=yes`, then *cups-filters* creates the file
`/etc/modules-load.d/cups-filters.conf` with the contents:
```
# Parallel printer driver modules loading for cups
# LOAD_LP_MODULE was 'yes' in /etc/default/cups
lp
ppdev
parport_pc
```
However, if the file `/etc/default/cups` contains `LOAD_LP_MODULE=no`
and *cups-filters* has already created the file `/etc/modules-load.d
/cups-filters.conf`, then the previous behavior equivalent to
`LOAD_LP_MODULE=yes` will persist even after completely reinstalling the
*cups-filters* package.
The only solution is to manually remove the file `/etc/modules-load.d
/cups-filters.conf`. I think the proper behavior would be for *cups-
filters* to remove the file if it exists during installation but
`/etc/default/cups` contains `LOAD_LP_MODULE=no`.
