[cups.general] Starting CUPS gets segfault

[Ken Smith]

Michael,

In response to this thread from last June. I have just seen these same 
symptoms on a FC6 production server. Deleting the content of 
/var/spool/cups solved the problem. I have saved a backup of it and the 
have the copies of the configuration and log files if they are helpful

Many thanks

Ken Smith
