Does anyone have a suggestion?
cups.conf file and set all permissions to allow all and allow,deny

bear in mind I have BASH installed but not sure that's necessary.

For network printers there is no need too install the cups package.
Just add a printer like I described a few posts before.

Are there any working suggestions to solve the installscript problem?
Otherwise we will never get cups out of the devel repo.
After the cups libraries are out of devel, gtk+ must be recompiled
with the cups libraries. Then other gtk+ applications can be build
with printer support.

I just reread the thread and found I had missed out on your
work with leafpad and abiword, will give that a go shortly.
Looking at the cups situation,
am I assuming correctly that
Code:
/extras-devel/pool/fremantle/free/c/cups/ cups_1.3.8-maemo3_armel.deb
I have a lot of other things I am involved in so the timeslice
on my efforts is somewhat irregular
I do want this fixed so I can run it natively on my main machine,
I only have it working on my testing unit at the moment,
because I hope to do a seamless install on the one I rely upon.

The problem of the missing links is in the postinst file of the
cups package.
db_get cupsys/backend && SELECTED=$RET
$RET seems to be always empty.

I got it!
The problem was, that fakedebconf provides debconf-2.0,
which does not work correctly with this postinstall-script.
The cups package now depends only on debconf, not debconf-2.0.
Now the backend-links are made.
I have uploaded new packages to the repo.

I think, there is no need for bash.

Hmm, there was hidden dependency on it, one of postinst scripts starts with #!/bin/bash , glad to hear it is no longer the case
