Public bug reported:
Tried to upgrade CUPS to latest version but it stopped working.
On reinstallation using these commands:
sudo apt purge cups cups-client cups-bsd
sudo apt purge hplip hpijs printer-driver-gutenprint
Could not install '/var/cache/apt/archives/cups-
client_2.1.3-4ubuntu0.4_amd64.deb'
The upgrade will continue but the
'/var/cache/apt/archives/cups-client_2.1.3-4ubuntu0.4_amd64.deb' package may
not be in a working state. Please consider submitting a bug report about it.
