[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#660348: More info

[Nate Bargmann]

Since the bug report I purged and then removed any old files from
/etc/cups and /usr/lib/cups that did not belong to some other package.
I'll note that the ghostscript-cups package has a new file:

ghostscript-cups: /usr/lib/cups/filter/gstopxl

that is not present on the Wheezy box.  Also, the file:

ghostscript-cups: /usr/lib/cups/filter/gstoraster

is of a different size than on Wheezy, although that is probably to be
expected as ghostscript-cups 9.04 is installed on Wheezy at the moment.

Upon reinstalling CUPS I used the HL-5240 PPD provided by the foomatic
package.  After setting up the printer attempting to print a test page
resulted in a single blank page again and the error:

"PDF file is damaged - attempting to reconstruct xref table..."

in the job log.  This error seems to be recurring.
