Andrew,

Thank you and everyone for your kind attention.

Andrew, you hit exactly the problem. You as well, Rebecca, but I didn't realize it. The problem described in the brainexterder blog is quite different from the printing problem I was experiencing so I failed to make the connection.

Therefore what I reported was not a bug: error status 1 is correctly reported from the upgrade subprocess when it is unable to change ownership of printers.conf. Of course there is the underlying problem with cups authentication but I'll leave that to the bug administration to decide the fate of bug 532053.
