Version: stable
Severity: grave
Justification: causes non-serious data loss
recent update to the 4.0 version and several dist-upgrades later
I am unable to find the cupsys package necessary to install the
cups server on my printer server. Other packages are available.
aptitude displays <none> <none> as the current and available versions.
clang:~# apt-get install cupsys
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Package cupsys is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
libcupsys2-dev cupsys-common cupsys-client cupsys-bsd
E: Package cupsys has no installation candidate

Dear Debian User,
This bug report was submitted against a version of CUPS that is no
longer supported in Debian. Use of our limited, volunteer supported
resources is best served by not keeping around old, hardware-specific
and inactive bugs for longer than desirable, so the report is now being
closed.
You may, of course, wish to review the reported problem. It would be
appreciated if any future investigation could be conducted using the
testing or unstable distributions. If considered necessary, a new bug
report, possibly referencing this one, would be submitted. Please note
there are now separate cups and cups-filters packages.
Thank you for your report.
Regards,
Brian.
