Title:
  trusty tahr upgrade system error, cups based.

Status in cups-pk-helper package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  DIST-UPGRADED to trusty tahr, what a mess. Previously fine-working auto-loaded canon printer, now toast. Annoying sys error, like others complain but diff. details as follow, hand typed best I can. 
  Is it possible, linux is having viruses now? Keep asking me to sign into keyring; fix online did not solve. 
  Afraid to sign in, as its similar to a windows virus popup, etc. Signs of browser virus, transposer of type, only in browser window typing/addy bar, all spelling jumbled in pairs. Even after purging/reinstalling chrome. 
  Notice the below, says no log of upgrade, i did dist-upgrade, so should be there. 13.04 worked fine with printer. ....

  thinking apps, as keep failing weird errors, purged openshot, gimp, chromium-browser; reinstalled, all 3 bizarre problems.  No effect.
  still have the typo backwards spelling-affecting thing similar to virus, tho browser now fully replaced. 
  sys: dell latitude d620 amd64, running upgraded to trusty tahr; 

  no google info, others similar, but not identical cups origin:

  Sorry, Ubuntu 14.04 has experienced an error:
