Thanks to one person who commented privately,
but it has not resolved the problem.

I tried UNcommenting these lines, and just got errors
for permissions on the cache.

I did not see a file named passwd.md5

I did do apt-get update and upgrade for all the cups components.
interesting, it said it was upgrading things, but
the dpkg -l before and after have not changed
