Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: cupsys

After dist-upgrading edgy on Oct 3, printing to a remote cups server
stopped working.  After some digging, I saw that execution of
/usr/lib/cups/backend/ipp was failing (as shown in
/var/log/cups/error_log).  I looked at the executable and saw the
permissions set to: 700 for both /usr/lib/cups/backend/ipp and
/usr/lib/cups/backend-available/ipp.

Changing the permissions to 755 allowed me to print again.
