Package: cupsys
Version: 1.2.1-3
Severity: normal
{r...@tea:~}# lppasswd -a root
Enter password:
Enter password again:
lppasswd: Unable to open password file: Permission denied
{r...@tea:~}#
stracing lppasswd reveals that it is trying to create /etc/cups/passwd.new
Temporarily chmod'ing og+w /etc/cups reveals that passwd.new is created as user
"lp", but /etc/cups is owned by root.
Note: The man page says lppasswd is setuid root, but ls -l shows that on Debian
it is setuid lp. Therefore it does not work because it has no write access to
/etc/cups

Hi,
This bug no longer applies to current versions in repositories.
(It was fixed in 1.3.7-5 and current stable release is 1.3.8.1+lenny8)
So, it can be closed.
Thanks,
Jean
