Hello Hongzheng,

This doesn't look related to ssl-cert. Please give me the output of

  ls -ld /etc/cups
  ls -l /etc/cups/cupsd.conf

This should be

  drwxr-xr-x 4 root lp 4096 2009-06-07 11:24 /etc/cups/
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1655 2009-04-17 11:52 /etc/cups/cupsd.conf

> Googling this bug tells us it is due to the lack of /etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem.
> The package ssl-cert is needed to generate this file.

cups has a strict dependency on ssl-cert, so that should be installed.

Martin
