    Yeah, a memory leak like that is definitely a bug.

    All I can say is that you have the 'gnome-cups-manager' package
    installed (based on a search on packages.debian.org). My
    recommendation would be to remove that package and just use the web
    interface (http://localhost:631/) to manage cups instead.
