lprng is only partially installed after upgrade.  Aptitude and apt keep 
telling me this.  However, it seems to work fine, and I have no problems 
talking to my postscript laser printer. 

lprng's line in interactive aptitude is:

Ch    lprng                          3.8.B-2.1    3.8.B-2.1

on trying to clear its status by an explicit install, it appears not to 
be able to 'start' it: 

root@notlookedfor:/home/hendrik/printme# aptitude install lprng
The following partially installed packages will be configured:
  lprng 
No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used.

Any ideas?
