[ale] another CUPS issue

[Jim Philips]

I'm running Kubuntu here. My printer was configured and working before. But 
now whenever I try to configure my printer, KDE's print setup tools tell me 
that CUPS isn't installed. It is installed and cupsd is running. If I try to 
go to the CUPS admin interface at localhost:631, it never comes up. Some 
other tools complain about not finding foomatic-db. That's also installed. 
The Gnome cups tool is installed and it seems to have less trouble in 
locating the CUPS daemon, but it still takes forever.  I'm wondering if I 
shouldn't just rip out the CUPS deb package and build CUPS from source.
