[STR New]

If the variable CUPS_SERVER is defined, it is not possible to override its
definition by using lp -h {printserver}.

This is caused by a call to _cupsSetDefaults() in the cupsUser() function
after the definition of the cups_server by -h. _cupsSetDefaults reset
cups_server to the value of CUPS_SERVER without verification of the current
value of cups_user.

I will try to propose a potential fix.

The issue is tracked for Ubuntu in the following bug :
