Hello,

I am have tried as many ideas to resolve the same problem that
occurs with both Debian cups packages: 

cups_1.3.8-1lenny4~bpo40+1
<http://backports.org/debian/pool/main/c/cups/cups_1.3.8-1lenny4~bpo40+1.dsc>

cups_1.3.8-1+lenny6.dsc
<http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/c/cups/cups_1.3.8-1+lenny6.dsc>

The problem is related to test(s) during the "dpkg-buildpackage
- -rfakeroot" process:

make[3]: Leaving directory
`/media/hda7/Debian/4.0r4/kde/backports/cups-1.3.8/man/fr' make

Welcome to the CUPS Automated Test Script.

Before we begin, it is important that you understand that the
larger tests require significant amounts of RAM and disk
space.  If you attempt to run one of the big tests on a system
that lacks sufficient disk and virtual memory, the UNIX kernel
might decide to kill one or more system processes that you've
grown attached to, like the X server.  The question you may
want to ask yourself before running a large test is: Do you
feel lucky?

OK, now that we have the Dirty Harry quote out of the way,
please choose the type of test you wish to perform:

0 - No testing, keep the scheduler running for me (all systems)
1 - Basic conformance test, no load testing (all systems)
2 - Basic conformance test, some load testing (minimum 256MB
VM, 50MB disk) 3 - Basic conformance test, extreme load testing
(minimum 1GB VM, 500MB disk) 4 - Basic conformance test,
torture load testing (minimum 2GB VM, 1GB disk)

Enter the number of the test you wish to perform: [1]
Running the timid tests (1)

Now you can choose whether to create a SSL/TLS encryption key
and certificate for testing; these tests currently require the
OpenSSL tools:

0 - Do not do SSL/TLS encryption tests
1 - Test but do not require encryption
2 - Test and require encryption

Enter the number of the SSL/TLS tests to perform: [0]
Not using SSL/TLS (0)

This test script can use the Valgrind software from:

    http://developer.kde.org/~sewardj/

Enter Y to use Valgrind or N to not use Valgrind: [N]

I have tried a variety of web search terms and keywords to
figure out what this issue is for the last 3 days and many
attempts of both packages above.  I have to assume the cause is
simple.  Both meet the required installed packages criteria
that "dpkg-buildpackage" and the "./configure" scripts check
for.  I can run "./configure" and "make" just fine manually.
When I run "make test" then I experience the same as above.
Any insight would be appreciated.
