Cups update with problems?

Hello,

OMV LX 3.03

KDE (up to date)

Recent updates for CUPs showed a warning/error message:

failed in the link /usr/share/man/man1/lpq.1.xz -> /etc/alternatives/lpq.1.xz: /usr/share/man/man1/lpq.1.xz, it exists but it is not a symbolic link

Does it mean something to be concerned about?

Thanks

Thanks for excellent reporting. For an accurate answer we need to ask @Colin, @TPG, @crisb, or @bero.

As far as I know man=manual so that is some kind of compressed file for manual pages? That’s a guess on my part. And I could be completely wrong. Also is your printer working. If so then my guess is that not something to worry about but developers may need to know about. And I’m embarrassed that I didn’t catch this when I updated my Lx 3 systems. :astonished:

yes its just a missing man page link which will cause no harm.

i’ve submitted a fix for this anyway.
