Your system (at least your CUPS installation) is broken.
Running openSUSE 11.2 with the Tumbleweed repository
might be the reason why your system is messed up because
Tumbleweed is not intended for older openSUSE versions.

It is up to date. Read it carefully and you will see
that CUPS 1.1 is mentioned to describe the differences
how it was with CUPS 1.1 compared to how it is nowadays.
Perhaps for you using the newest stuff via Tumbleweed things
like CUPS 1.1 is not of any interest. But at least I have also
users in mind who still run CUPS 1.1 in particular in business
environments where they do not or cannot upgrade all the time
to the newest stuff because they do not want to change their
stable running systems.
