Subject: new cupsys fails to start, claiming can't bind port 631

Package: cupsys
Version: 1.1.23-13
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

The latest cupsys update broke the port binding for me:

root@ghreen { ~ }$ /etc/init.d/cupsys start
Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd
cupsd: Child exited with status 98!

/var/log/cups/error_log:
E [13/Dec/2005:23:16:09 -0600] StartListening: Unable to bind socket for
address 00000000:631 - Address already in use.

"lsof | grep 631" shows nothing binded to 631. I have checked and tried
to open the port myself, and I am sure it's open. I have also rebooted.

This probably means that the port is opened by an NFS-related kernel thread
because portmap (incorrectly) assigns the port there. You can confirm this
by stopping the NFS server (/etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server and
/etc/init.d/nfs-common) and starting cupsys again.

This is not a bug in cupsys, but a systemic problem with portmap's random
port assignment process.

Ok, sorry for the wrong guess. Bumping the severity back up.
