[Bug 40795] Re: cannot create printers in live system

[Till Kamppeter]

In the current state of Edgy, foomatic-db-engine is fixed, so that CUPS
does not list any printer/driver combos any more for which no PPD file
is available. So for an installed system, update foomatic-db-engine (and
also foomatic-db, or better do a full "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get
dist-upgrade" as many other printing bugs got fixed, too), then remove
your non-working print queue(s) and re-create it/them. For further tests
on a live CD, try to get the newest ISOs (I hope there are already ISOs
with the stuff which got uploaded last week).
