[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#383290: cupsys: after an update the socket backend isn't available any longer

[Jürgen Braun]

Subject: cupsys: after an update the socket backend isn't available any longer
Package: cupsys
Version: 1.2.2-1
Severity: important

*** Please type your report below this line ***

After updating cupsys, the socket backend isn't any longer 
in /usr/lib/cups/backend. It still exists in /usr/lib/cups/backend-available, 
but the symbolic link is missing. So every printer that uses the socket 
backend gets disabled when used the first time.
