** Description changed:

  [ Impact ]
  
  During our testing on Linux desktop platforms, we found that there’s a
  low chance (2/200) that loading the parport_pc module on a platform
  without paraports leads to ACPI stress test failure. Similar issues have
  been reported in different places[1][2]
  
  The module loads unconditionally due to module.conf in cups-filters.
  This is unecessary because modaliases and related mechanism (udev etc.)
  already handle this.
  
  [ Fix ]
  
  Do not include parport_pc module in cups-filters' debian/local/modules-
  load.conf, in the following merge proposal from Debian:
  
  - Disable parport_pc automatic load (Closes: #1139318):
  https://salsa.debian.org/printing-team/cups-filters/-/merge_requests/3
  
  [ Test ]
  
- 1. Install the packge
- 2. Redo the ACPI stress test on the said platform. The platform should pass 
the test.
+ 1. Install the package on a platform without paraport
+ 2. Run lsmod. paraport_pc shouldn't load.
