Package: cupsys
Version: 1.1.23-13
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

The latest cupsys update broke the port binding for me:

root at ghreen { ~ }$ /etc/init.d/cupsys start  
Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd
cupsd: Child exited with status 98!

/var/log/cups/error_log:
E [13/Dec/2005:23:16:09 -0600] StartListening: Unable to bind socket for
address 00000000:631 - Address already in use.

"lsof | grep 631" shows nothing binded to 631. I have checked and tried
to open the port myself, and I am sure it's open. I have also rebooted.
