Bug Description
Binary package hint: cups
cupsd.conf configuration file is inconsistent about IPv6 addressed in ACL rules (Allow / Deny)
It takes "::1" and "[xxxx:
but daemon exits with its universal message (that it can't read config file) when it gets "[::1]" or IPv6 address without [ ].
It is quite hard to suspect, that (knowing that ::1 works and [::1] does not) it works this way.
And by hard I mean >1h I spend by brute-forcing which of the lines causes trouble.
