OK. Please could you check the versions of
perl
perl-base
perl-modules
I have
$ dpkg -s perl | grep ^Vers
Version: 5.8.4-8
$ dpkg -s perl-base | grep ^Vers
Version: 5.8.4-8
$ dpkg -s perl-modules | grep ^Vers
Version: 5.8.4-8
If you have the woody versions (5.6.1-8.9), the script might be
relying on a new Perl feature. In this case, if you install the
testing versions of these packages, does the upgrade now work?
(I'll have to check this with a perl expert.)

OK. If there are PPD files there, the grep part can't fail, so
@ppdglob should be filled. If you edit /usr/sbin/cups-genppdupdate,
and add after
if (@ppdglob) {
on line 92:
print STDOUT "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
(add the second line, after the first in the original file) and then
run /usr/sbin/cups-genppdupdate, what output do you see?
Thanks,
Roger
