I see that I have already tried v5.0.0.99-1, compiling from source, but I backed out to v5.0.0 -- I don't remember the reason for going back, so I'll try again.

Some observations with the LSB version:

- the .deb produced by converting the .rpm wants to install in /opt instead of /usr/share (Ubuntu default location).

- the installation instructions at OpenPrinting (your link) are not very clear.

Result with v5.0.0.99-1:
/var/log/cups/error_log is filling up with 'cupsdAuthorize: Local authentication certificate not found!', queued jobs have status 'Stopped: job-stopped'. Unable to use escputil (same reason?).

I'll have to go back to v5.0.0 for productivity reasons ;-). Let me know if you want some more tests, in another place if this is too far off the Launchpad topic.
