An an upgrade to anything that want to modify *.config, |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
I so to the dir and save about-2-be-deleted version |
| 9 |
of all config files. For example in /etc/cups/ |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
printers.conf |
| 12 |
printers.conf.31aug11 |
| 13 |
printers.conf.5dec10 |
| 14 |
printers.conf.6jun2011 |
| 15 |
printers.conf.orig (original) |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
I could use the optional names during the updates, |
| 18 |
but those names are non sensical to me. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
It's saved my bacon on too many occasions, as cups |
| 21 |
it not the only brain_dead software and keeping |
| 22 |
config records that can be date correlated, helps |
| 23 |
on a variety of issues. Occasionally I prune the |
| 24 |
files.... I asways use hplip with HP printers. |
