With CUPS already shut down cups-browsed simply hangs and gets killed after a certain timeout. This can be fixed by defining the correct relationships in the systemd .service files and so the annoying hang can be avoided. [Test case] To reproduce the bug run sudo systemctl stop cups and after some seconds sudo systemctl stop cups-browsed with the shutdown of cups-browsed hanging. On system shutdown one gets the hang, but not always as it can happen that on some shutdowns cups-browsed shuts down before cups. After installing the fixed package, hhutting down cups requires shutting down cups-browsed before, so that the shutdown of cups triggers the shutdown of cups-browsed, making all shutdowns having the two services shut down in the right order avoiding a hang. [Regression potential] None. We only define a dependency between two services to make them shit down in the correct order.
