Oh, good!
Your patch doesn’t include the patch
gnu/packages/patches/cups-dir.patch
We also usually don’t put so many unrelated changes into the same
commit. I see that your commit updates “cups-minimal”, adds a patch,
changes the configure-flags for “cups-minimal” and “cups”(?) ... It
would be better to split them into separate commits.

Shouldn’t it read the configuration from “/etc” first and only then look
up its default configuration file in “$out/etc/”? It’s weird that this
unchanged file (or was it changed by the missing patch?) would be
reported as containing errors.
