Description Arvid Requate univentionstaff 2017-03-21 19:46:19 CET
Apparently cups doesn't support the file:/ device type any more (?), even though we have "FileDevice yes" in /etc/cups/cups-files.conf. Jobs send to printers that use this device are simply lost. I have looked into this with Felix but we have not found the reason for this yet. If this bug gets fixed, then the workaround in ucs-test Bug #43912 should be reverted again.
