[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#437536: log rotation fails due to unknown "cupsys" user

[Frank Pavageau]

Package: cupsys
Version: 1.2.12-3
Severity: normal

I get the following error in my cron.daily mail:
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
error: cupsys:14 unknown user 'cupsys'
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate exited with return code 1

due to the following line in /etc/logrotate.d/cupsys:
        create 640 cupsys lpadmin
