systemd support has been integrated. Socket activation patch can be dropped, bearing in mind that systemd service files' names have been changed.
I propose the -blfs patch replaced with following instructions:
sed -i "/MAN.*.EXT/s:.gz::g" configure config-scripts/cups-manpages.m4 sed -i "s:555:755:g;s:444:644:g" Makedefs.in cat > conf/pam.std.in << "EOF" # Begin /etc/pam.d/cups auth include system-auth account include system-account session include system-session # End /etc/pam.d/cups EOF
Support for OpenSSL has been removed in favor of GnuTLS, so the optional switch needs to be removed. Content type patch still applies, but I don't know if it's still necessary as I don't fully understand what it fixes. If the above instructions are to be used, then aclocal and autoconf don't need to be run anymore.

Content type patch: if I don't use it, I cannot access my network printer at Lubuntu. It took me about three months to find a solution for that. During that time, I could not update anything printer related.

Thanks, Armin, modified according your suggestions.
I removed both patches. However, using remote access to a cups server needs a clear description, modifying the basic client configuration we give and the server configuration.
I succeeded today, following
http://www.debianadmin.com/setup-cups-common-unix-printing-system-server-and-client-in-debian.html
which was suggested by Eugen Bartice in the support list. Have tried introducing a text there, but didn't like what I wrote. Thought to just include the link in the page, but I'm not sure if it is suitable for BLFS.
Also I'm not sure which are the essential modifications, i.e., if all instructions in Debian's page are really necessary.
Bruce, please, I need help in this part. Perhaps, a ticket just for this purpose would be good.
Almost fixed at r14515.
The PAM file creation could be moved into Configuring section, where it once was, especially since PAM isn't strictly required.
