With what did you update it?

Can you reproduce this problem?

Bug#886224: printer-driver-cups-pdf: Virtual pdf printer error: no output and config problem

[Rudolf Polzer]

You are right - the cups pdf printer is now working.

I changed the pdf output directory a long time ago before using
Apparmor, but now Apparmor needs to allow rw access to this directory.

So I updated /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.cupsd
and the pdf printing works.

The config problem remains unsolved.

I notice that you're using AppArmor.  Please check what the README
says about this.

Bug description:

The cups pdf printer produces no pdf output file.

After deleting the pdf printer, the add printer function does not work as 
expected:
After selecting "Generic" as printer make, no pdf printer model is selectable.
I instead selected one of the existing ppd files in /usr/share/ppd/cups-pdf
but this did not make the pdf printer work.

The bug started by my recent update from cups-pdf, where pdf printing did work,
to printer-driver-cups-pdf.
