Bug Description
The fix of patching smbspool is really just a workaround; the previous behaviour
of smbspool made more sense. Rather than smbspool preferring the environment,
cupsys should avoid passing the printer URI as the first argument (and use only
the environment). This seemed exceedingly nontrivial for Warty, however. We
should revisit it for Hoary.

Upstream had the same idea, this is reported as
http:// www.cups. org/str. php?L933
I filed a samba bug
https:/ /bugzilla. samba.org/ show_bug. cgi?id= 2029
to inform the smbspool developers and asked them to coordinate with the CUPS guys.
