Looking at: https://wiki.debian.org/MaintainerScripts The new package, may need to have a preinst stanza which version checks which package version upgrade is happening from and still execute systemctl stop cups.path unit. Upgrades after that one should be fine without a preinst. And preinst should then be dropped after next LTS. Obviously a new package needs to be prepared and we should test it a bit. Shall we start a https://bileto.ubuntu.com/ devirt PPA for this update into zesty and eventual SRUs? -- Regards, Dimitri. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to cups in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1642966 Title: package cups-daemon 2.1.3-4 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 Status in cups package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in init-system-helpers package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: This is in xenial-proposed, please block release to -updates accordingly :) ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: cups-daemon 2.1.3-4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-46.67-generic 4.4.24 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-46-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: zfs zunicode zcommon znvpair zavl ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 CupsErrorLog: Date: Fri Nov 18 11:13:15 2016 ErrorMessage: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-05-02 (200 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160420.1) Lpstat: device for mallards-officejet-pro-8600: dnssd://Officejet%20Pro%208600%20%5BD63461%5D._ipp._tcp.local/?uuid=1c852a4d-b800-1f08-abcd-d89d67d63461 MachineType: Dell Inc.
