Description Andrew de Quincey 2005-10-14 17:56:50 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.2)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc 3.4.4 
OS:                Linux

If I configure my i386 based cups server from my amd64 machine, it breaks cupsd.conf - specifically, it changes

ServerBin /usr/lib/cups

to

ServerBin /usr/lib64/cups

Which would be fine for the amd64 machine, but is not fine for the i386 machine. :)

I can easily work round it by symlinking /usr/lib64, but thought I'd report it as it was rather confusing what had broken.

Actually, this has stopped happening now... the only thing I can think of is that I changed the print manager to use a remote print server as opposed to a local one. I then used the tool to manage the remote server, and that somehow some of the settings leaked across from the local one to the remote one.

It works fine now - leaves the path settings as-is.
