You have @cups in DAEMONS ... probably need @cupsd?

You need to start cupsd in rc.conf daemons... not cups

Hmmmnnn. Now I'm confused... According to my console login prompt, I'm currently using 2.6.39-ARCH And after a recent pacman -Syu cups stopped loading for me until I changed my Daemons line to say cups rather than cupsd.
There had, if I remember right, been a {is it 'rc.confpacnew' or 'rc.conf.pacnew'?} that didn't have cups listed in the daemons line. Anyway I remember putting "cupsd" the new rc.conf first, and when that didn't work I edited it to just say "cups". I didn't think much about it at the time. All I cared was that my printer worked again.
But why would one Arch Linux installation need "cups" in the daemons line while another needs "cupsd"???

Which version of cups needs 'cups' in the DAEMONS array?
