[Bug 1466157] [NEW] Unknown directive BrowsePoll in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf

 

Public bug reported:

A month or more ago, after a 15.04 update, I starting usually having  to
restart CUPS in order to print. Prior to that, CUPS was always ready to
go with my browsed printers after booting.

After an update last week, CUPS browsed has completely broken. I can not
print at all at work.  Restarting the cups or cups-browsed server does
not help (ie:

systemctl restart cups-browsed 
sudo service cups restart

)

This is a bit of deja-vu; see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/cups-filters/+bug/1159213  which was fixed.

Now I have

BrowseRemoteProtocols dnssd cups
BrowsePoll cups.ncs.mcgill.ca:631
Browsing On

in my cups-browsed.conf

but get the error

 Unknown directive BrowsePoll on line 84 of /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.

when I try to start cups.
