Bug#381428: cupsys: Device dialog does not how any entry

Package: cupsys
Version: 1.2.2-1

While trying to add a printer, the dialog never presents a device
selection, it stays empty. This way, I am not able to add any printer.
The folder backend was missing first and I copied it in from
/usr/lib/cups/b... It is looking like it does not even read the folder
contained.

The problem "CUPS doesn't provide any backends if there is an error
during installation" is already fixed in 1.2.1-4, #376499.

But you said CUPS didn't provide nothing even if you copied backend programs
from /usr/lib/cups/backend-available to /usr/lib/cups/backend, right?
correct, could you send me a working /etc/cups. Maybe we have a big difference there.
What kind of printer do you use? USB connection?
Are you using udev?
I am using udev and I have plain Paralell-port printer (Lexmark R+)


Thanks again for your help :-)

Ciao, Matthias Wieser
