Just wondering if you found anything out about this?  Alternatively, any suggestions about how we could diagnose or work around the issue?

On my (Fedora) system, all these files live in /usr/share/doc/cups.  There is a /usr/share/cups/doc pointing to this directory.  This seems backwards, and contributed to my confusion!

Even within /usr/share/cups, though, it seems odd to put the static content in a "doc" directory.  For example, I would have expected to see the images in a /usr/share/cups/images, or maybe /usr/share/cups/html directory.

Thanks!
