Public bug reported:
I have three Computer with ubuntu installed, an AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2800+
desktop, an AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+ and a laptop with a Mobile Intel
Pentium 4-M 2GHz. On amd64 there are no problems in restarting cupsys or
starting and stopping it, on the i386 systems, when I try to restart cupsys
with sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart it hangs, and I have to give a Ctrl-C to
terminate. After the termination cups works fine.
The only way to restart cleanly is to switch to single user mode and give the
/etc/init.d/cupsys restart command.
I have noticed that on the amd64 (the PC with working cupsys restart) a pgrep
cuspd returns 2 PID and that /var/run/cups/cupsd.pid reports the highest, e.g.
# pgrep cuspd
4029
8366
# cat /var/run/cups/cupsd.pid
8366
on the other two systems there is only one cupsd instance running whose PID is
correctly reported in /var/run/cups/cupsd.pid . The main difference between the
working system and the non working ones is that I have installed cups-pdf on
the latters. But uninstalling it doesn't solve the problem.
