Comment # 2 on bug 1005395 from
This is another consequence of the poppler version upgrade in Leap 42.2
which requires a cups-filters version upgrade in Leap 42.2, see bug#983517
which now requires a cups-backends update in Leap 42.2 to the one
in the Printing project where it is already fixed:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
$ osc rdiff openSUSE:Leap:42.2 cups-backends Printing cups-backends

--- cups-backends.changes (revision 3)
+++ cups-backends.changes (revision 15)

+
+- Since cups-filters version 1.6.0 the beh backend is provided
+  by the cups-filters RPM as /usr/lib/cups/backend/beh which is
+  a C re-write of the beh backend written in Perl that is still
+  provided here but now named /usr/lib/cups/backend/beh.pl
+  to avoid that cups-backends conflicts with cups-filters.

>From my point of view this sequence of issues is a perfect example
why we should prefer stability in Leap over newest greatest stuff
which we do provide in Tumbleweed for those who need it and
this is also a perfect example for the difference between
SUSE Linux Enterprise products where things are kept stable
(in particular in SLE12 backward compatiblility is maintained
so that in SLE12 no cups-filters version upgrade is needed)
versus community projects like Leap where things are not
so much kept stable and backward compatible.
