Comment 2 Fabrice Bellet 2009-09-11 11:37:20 UTC

I see the same behaviour. Starting s-c-p with cups stopped is a possible workaround.

Comment 3 Tim Waugh 2009-09-14 10:51:38 UTC

Please try the test update:

Comment 4 Francisco Moraes 2009-09-14 12:26:45 UTC

Yes, the problem is fixed by the test update. Is there one of the bugs that fixed this issue?

Comment 5 Tim Waugh 2009-09-14 15:33:04 UTC
