Package: cupsys Version: 1.1.23-10 Severity: important Hi,
the init-script for cups /etc/init.d/cupsys simply starts cupsd in the background and then finishes immediately, although cupsd is not yet accepting requests. In my case, samba was started just a second after cupsd by the samba init-script and because cupsd was not yet ready, samba could not get the list of available printers. I had to restart it manually to have it working. Of course, I had the same problem during the next restart... Maybe one could put an artificial delay into the cupsys script to make sure that cupsd is ready once the script completes. I tagged this bug important because I think any user of the cups/samba (or another combination of cups with a program that is depending on cups being available during startup) can potentially run into this problem and it can be triggered (as it was in my case) by simply removing some packages that stretch the delay between running the cupsys init-script and the samba init-script. Thanks a lot and best wishes, Martin. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.11.6 Locale: LANG=C, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages cupsys depends on: ii adduser 3.63 Add and remove users and groups ii debconf 1.4.30.13 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-21 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcupsimage2 1.1.23-10 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libcupsys2-gnutls10 1.1.23-10 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libgnutls11 1.0.16-9 GNU TLS library - runtime library ii libpam0g 0.76-22 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpaper1 1.1.14-3 Library for handling paper charact ii libslp1 1.0.11a-2 OpenSLP libraries ii patch 2.5.9-2 Apply a diff file to an original ii perl-modules 5.8.4-8 Core Perl modules ii xpdf-utils 3.00-13 Portable Document Format (PDF) sui ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-4 compression library - runtime -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
