This naming is rather unfortunate, for a number of reasons:
Many systems who currently have cups services use a different naming, which
this has broken a few systems during the update from 1.7.5 where the
central service was cups.service, requiring changes of any related scripts
or documentation.

Secondly, the name is horrible to type, especially in non-OSX land where
service names need to be typed out, only secondary services intended to be
tied to other services seem to commonly use this naming scheme, not a
primary install-able service file.

I'm sorry for the rant, but I don't think many will be happy with this
change from the naming we use in every other service, and have used for
cups in the past.
