Surely, there's really something wrong here. I've installed CUPS 1.2.3
in another RedHat system(RHEL ES 4), both are x330s btw, and this other
system is reporting the same problem:

Something has changed with the filters between CUPS 1.2.2 and CUPS 1.2.3. This problem has not occured in CUPS 1.2.2.

Is anyone else running RHEL ES 4 and seeing the same thing?

This seems to occur only on RedHat systems. AIX and Solaris are working just fine.

Thanks,
Angel
