Is the fix of bug 1579905 applied? Does that fix also solve the problem here? Or is pitti's suggestion of comment #6 also needed.
I think that pitti's approach is also important as cups-browsed needs the network. At least on some systems it communicates with CUPS via localhost:631 which probably would not work if the network is already shut down. cups-browsed needs to communicate with CUPS also during its shutdown as it removes the CUPS queues it created when shutting down. So it is important that cups-browsed shuts down before CUPS and before the network. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to cups in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1591274 Title: cups-browsed hangs on shutdown Status in cups package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have a new XPS13, running an up-to-date 16.04. The shutdown process takes ages - something is clearly getting stuck. It eventually completes, but is (or seems like) several minutes.
