Comment 0 for bug 1086019

Every day I get a 'System Problem Detected' dialog that says that cupsd has crashed. The symptom is similar to the one described in bug 1034045.

I expected this would be fixed by cups 1.6.1-0ubuntu11, but I have that version installed and the errors persist. The test case in bug 1034045 does not result in an immediate crash of cupsd. Specifically, this does not produce a crash on my system:

1. Run 'sudo rm -f /var/crash/_usr_sbin_cupsd.0.crash'
2. Run 'sudo service cupsd restart'
3. Verify that a new /var/crash/_usr_sbin_cupsd.0.crash file has been created (and if on a desktop, that a new crash notification has been shown).
