Guys,

  After updates to cups yesterday, printing to a laserjet4 stopped working.
After searching, I discovered /usr/lib/cups/backend/parallel did not exist. Why
was it removed from cups PKGBUILD? The size is minimal in the days of gigabyte
drives and there are still many parallel and serial printers.
