You do not need any special packages. The bug is supposed to be fixed in Precise. Release is the coming Thursday, but if it is urgent installing its latest snapshot today should already be stable enough (or beta 2 and then installing all updates). For your testing simply update your Precise system to the current state, ending up with cups 1.5.2-9ubuntu1. This package has already all mentioned patches applied.

If it still fails then for the tests you did in the Red Hat bug report ipptool is needed, it is probably already installed, as under Ubuntu it is in the cups-client package. If some other tool is missing, entering the command line will show a message telling with which command you can install the missing tool.

Note that in Oneiric the last fix (1.5.2-1, comment #25) did not get backported.

You can also test with a Precise Live CD before upgrading your system to Precise. The fix should already be on the beta2 live CD.
