[Bug 934291] Re: Deleting or stopping print jobs does not work

[Robie Basak]

Mario, thank you for the detailed analysis. This is really helpful.

I wonder though if the right fix would be to have cups-pk-helper run as
lpadmin, rather than root? I'm not familiar with the details though, so
I don't know if that would work or is possible. If the goal in having
lpadmin is to reduce things that must be root, then perhaps this is the
right answer though?

This probably does need sending up to Debian and getting their opinion.
In particular I don't want to inadvertently compromise security by just
making something run as root.

Till, do you have any opinion?
