Hi,
I think I've found an error within the cups-pdf port/package. With the
default installation, on my 2 systems (4.1 and current) there weren't
any files under /var/spool/cups/${user} created. Within the
/var/log/cups/error_log I've found, that cups-pdf has to run under root.
So I've changed the /usr/local/libexec/cups/backend/cups-pdf
permission as described on the cups-pdf homepage to 0700 for root. Not
everything runs as expected. If someone can confirm this error, could
you please fix the port, so that
/usr/local/libexec/cups/backend/cups-pdf gets the correct permissions?

-> "Starting with version 1.2.0 CUPS implements the "RunAsOption" no
longer. In order to ensure CUPS-PDF is running with the required root
privileges you have to make 'root' the owner of the cups-pdf backend and
set the file permissions of the backend to 0700 (root only)."
Thanks and best regards,
Sven
