I believe the system is baselayout-1 and is amd64.
The trouble is open files, at least some of which appear to be related
to bash and locale (see the files below).
I use grub. On the kernel line can I specify sh instead of bash?

A workaround is to downgrade to cups-1.3.11-r1 (current stable).

The later failed and googling showed that I should use instead

Merging pcmciautils required merging dev-util/yacc.
I don't know why it wouldn't accept bison.
dev-util/yacc failed to build due to a file collision
