Subject: cups: printer prints empty sheets only
Followup-For: Bug #377604
Package: cupsys
Version: 1.2.1-3

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

Some days ago the first Debian bug report I ever sent was erraneously
declared
for package "cups 1.2-3" and thus filed as BUG 377604 and sent to
unknown-packages at qa.debian.org, In the meantime I found out that it belongs
to package cupsys. To make good for that, I shall send this mail to the said
BUG number at debian.org and, using another mail, directly to Debian
CUPS Maintainers <pkg-cups-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org> and to the
author of
HOWTO-BUGREPORT.txt, Mr. Kenshi Kmuto <kmuto at debian.org>, with my original
report and its ever so long cupsattach.txt.gz as attachments, Please do
understand that correspondence and other printouts are burning under the
fingernails now, not being able to print since June 9th. There have even
been some financial losses already.

Please excuse my being thus awkward and sending report to the wrong package.
For you, of course, things do look different, but for me as ordinary debian
user cups is cups and it is neither cupsys nor cups-devel nor
cups-whatever-you
want (well, and 'testing' is 'desktop' and 'unstable' is 'testing' and
'stable'
is 'absolutely unusable  except for servers' because I can't risk to receive
state-of-the-art-software after I have died).

Yours
