CUPS needs upgrading for rsyslog and upstarted init.d

[Martin-Éric Racine]

Binary package hint: cups

It appears that CUPS needs to be upgraded to take into account the switch from ksyslogd to rsyslog and for the upstarted init.d migration:

insserv: There is a loop between service rsyslog and cups if stopped
insserv: loop involving service cups at depth 4
insserv: loop involving service samba at depth 3
insserv: There is a loop between service rsyslog and cups if stopped
insserv: loop involving service rsyslog at depth 4
insserv: loop involving service udev at depth 3
insserv: loop involving service umountnfs at depth 8
insserv: exiting now without changing boot order!
 * Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd [ OK ]

Removing CUPS and re-running "sudo inssserv" makes the above error messages disappear.

Only the shutdown actions seem affected, so maybe this wouldn't be too difficult to fix.

[dino99 (9d9)]

is it still a problem ?
