The bug manifested itself on a Linux Mint 21.1 system after installing a CUPS-update. LM 21.1 is based on Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy. After searching on the Linux Mint forum and this Ubuntu forum I decided to roll back the update and that did restore the CUPS server which had failed to start up properly; both cups.path and cups.socket with status failed. The update consists of two packages labelled 'cups 2.4.1op1-1ubuntu4.15' and 'cups-filters 1.28.15-0ubuntu1.5'. I guess the latter package does not play a role in this issue. The now again active package is labelled '2.4.1op1-1ubuntu4.12'. Printer configuration is done with 'system-config-printer 1.5.16ยด, a CUPS configuration tool. I have inspected /etc/cups/cupd.conf and at the end of the file after the line </Policy> follow the four lines mentioned elsewhere in this issue. But nevertheless the system prints. I took a look at older snapshots and the four lines seem to have been there without causing trouble, but that has changed with the latest update. I hope this helps finding the cause of the issue and a way to solve it. Thank you for your support.
