    Anyone else had problems with this?

    I dist-upgraded from sarge to sid abt. three days ago, and lost
    (amongst others) cups. As far as I could understand, there was a
    conflict between two versions of libcupsys2. At first, I worried
    that I had either to remove gnumeric or most of kde apps. So I
    waited a couple of days. Then I decided to sacrifice gnumeric, and
    try at least to get cups up and running again. So I removed gnumeric
    and juggled a few versions in the foomatic-gimp-print / libcupsys2 /
    etc until aptitude said nothing was broken, and installed. Magic! -
    cupsys was up and running, I could log onto localhost:631 and it all
    looked good. But I cannot print or add a printer or do any admin
    function. I get "client-error-bad-request" or "client-error-gone"
    for every action.

    Does anyone else have problems with recent cupsys? Do these errors
    indicate anything particular I should check? Is cups really broken
    now or did I drop the crockery myself? I have googled until I was fed
    up with french and russian discussions (the one I understand with
    difficulty, the other not at all) of client-error-bads, but found
    nothing useful yet.

    TIA
