Bug Description
at some point, chromium has installed cupsd : cupsd isn't listed as installed in aptitude but it *is* listed under snap list
if i wanted cups installed and printer support i would have installed it myself this shouldn't be installing itself through the backdoor via autoupdate
there also doesn't seem to be anywhere in settings to turn it off

If you don't like it you can snap remove cups?
