Seb, you see here why the future lies in immutable distros, it is so
easy to create a complete mess with conventional ones ...

The steps were all an act of desperation. By stumbling over the cups-
snap repo on OpenPrinting (and therefore installing the CUPS Snap) Marc
has tried to get rid of the Debian packages of CUPS and used this
"systemctl mask ..." hammer (against the debianized CUPS) which I even
did not know about. And also this hammer deletes a file which comes from
a package and therefore "systemctl unmask ..." does not work (systemd
bug???). So I walked him through cleaning up the mess so that one can
investigate the real bug again ...
