This is the third time this has happened to me. I can not, for the
life of me figure out why.
I do notice that when it happens I get "child died" error 99 when
cupsd starts.
This time, as in the past, I solved the problem by remerging gimp and
gimp-print. I can't remember this happening when I used
gimp-print-cups. This might be wishful thinking but it is my guess.
Note, the masked version of gimp-print was the one where I had to make
those synlinks. I went back to 4.2.5
