[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#426112: cupsys: file ownerships not adapted after upgrade

[Géraud Meyer]

Package: cupsys
Version: 1.2.11-2
Severity: important

The remote administration is impossible because /etc/cups/ssl/* are 
still owned by root.
The cancellation of jobs is impossible because the corresponding files 
in /var/spool/cups/ are still owned by root.
After a new installation of cups (that is after removal and installation 
of cups 1.2.11) I noticed that the ownership/access rights of 
/usr/lib/cups/backends was not the same (but I might have changed it 
myself manually in the past).

Since the files are not part of the cupsys package I am not sure it is 
*really* a bug. However nothing prevents one from doing something about 
it (like a warning during the upgrade or a simple line in NEWS.Debian) 
so please consider it a wishlist report in that case.

Regards
