Public bug reported:
When I try to add a printer (or any other operation requiring
permissions) in the CUPS web interface (http://localhost:631/), my user
and my password are asked. Then my password is rejected. My password
contains spaces at extremities and the problem get solved if I change it
for a password without spaces.
