Comment 1 for bug 27065

Message-ID: <email address hidden>

Subject: cupsd: Child exited with status 98!

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

After the last upgrade the init script exited with the subject
message (actually the message is from cupsd itself) and
the daemon did not start.
The problem appears to be the contrary of bug #319602.
In the present case I have a cupsd.conf with
the directive
Port 631
uncommented.
The same directive is included by the line (in cupsd.conf):
Include /etc/cups/cups.d/ports.conf
where the content of my ports.conf is simply:
Port 631

Commenting out the Include line make things work again,
however it is very strange that a repeated directive in conf file
is enough to render cupsd unusable.

Best regards
G. L. Gragnani
