Public bug reported:
I am running Cups on a Lucid server, with etckeeper installed. Just
about every night, I get an email from the cron job for etckeeper
because the printers.conf and printers.conf.O files have changed. This
is because Cups keeps state information about the printers in this file,
instead of under /var (where it is supposed to go).
The "State" and "StateTime" lines in that file look like the most
glaring offenders, but there may be others. That kind of information
should be kept under /var.
