Hello,

the bug is still present with cups

root at deepdance:~ -> dpkg -l | egrep "(cupsys|libcup)"

root at deepdance:~ -> ls -l /dev/lp0
crw-rw---- 1 root lp 6, 0 2006-08-24 13:02 /dev/lp0


error_log:

E [25/Aug/2006:11:33:51 +0200] [Job 194] Unable to open parallel port 
device file "/dev/lp0": Permission denied


It works after chmod a+rw /dev/lp0

This is strange as the parallel backend seems to operate as user "lp" and 
user "lp" had read write permissions on /dev/lp0 before, too:

lp        7310  4.9  1.0  16260  8388 ?        S    11:39
