Bug Description
Binary package hint: cupsys
I performed the following steps:
1) Booted into single user mode
2) apt-get update
3) apt-get dist-upgrade
Now I now longer have a working CUPS system.
Here's what versions of cups was loaded prior to the upgrade:
ii bluez-cups 3.9-0ubuntu1 Bluetooth printer driver for CUPS
ii cupsys 1.2.8-0ubuntu5 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - server
ii cupsys-bsd 1.2.8-0ubuntu5 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - BSD comman
ii cupsys-client 1.2.8-0ubuntu5 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - client pro

ii cupsys-
ii libcupsimage2 1.2.8-0ubuntu5 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - image libs
ii libcupsys2 1.2.8-0ubuntu5 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - libs
ii libgnomecups1.0-1 0.2.2-5ubuntu1 GNOME library for CUPS interact
Here's what versions of cups I now show:

When I view my printer via the WEB browser, I see that the printer is in a stopped state. If I try and start it, I see the error message:
