Comment 1 John (J5) Palmieri 2006-03-20 20:22:08 UTC

/usr/sbin/printconf-backend is spawned by hal_lpadmin in order to add and remove
printers.  This is a component of system-config-printer.  Reassigning.

Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2006-03-23 09:45:01 UTC

Don't remove that file.  It is created when you install CUPS, and should never
be removed.
