Bug Description
After the recent cups update, my printing system broke by saying some packets were damaged (cups among them). Being a somewhat newbie I thought it was smart to purge cups and try to reinstall it (it was not btw).
The attempt failed as dependencies where not fulfilled:
Trying to reinstall cups I received among other dependencies the following
Hängt ab von: libcups2 (= 2.1.3-4) aber 2.1.3-4ubuntu0.2 soll installiert werden
dpkg -l | grep libcups
ii libcups2:amd64 2.1.3-4ubuntu0.2
ii libcups2:i386 2.1.3-4ubuntu0.2
But there is a bunch of other programs and libraries that depend on 2.1.3-4ubuntu0.2.
To me, I see no way how to resolve this conflict.
Best regards
