- I've fixed the conflict between cups and cups-filters by stopping the
- latter to install the conflicting files.

The fix I have in my tree (still testing) was to have
cups-filters install the conflicting files, rather than cups,
since cups can't do anything with the files with the default
filter set.

The conflicting files are:
        share/cups/banners/classified
        share/cups/banners/confidential
        share/cups/banners/secret
        share/cups/banners/standard
        share/cups/banners/topsecret
        share/cups/banners/unclassified
        share/cups/data/testprint

- I had filed a bug report about the conflict a month ago, but didn't
- get an answer yet.

I'm still trying to figure out why other cups systems on my
network doesn't see the printers "exported" by the master cups
print server.
