Foomatic-filters and suidperl, Was: Printing with cups doesn't work

Hy all, I am printing through cups to a postscript printer connected via ethernet. If I try to print for example a simple textfile, the job doesn't print. I have setup another System with OpenSuSE 10 and there the exact same setup does work as expected

OK, now I have more info and think it is a bug/dependency in foomatic-rip. I have setuid /usr/bin/suidperl because of some cgi-scripts which should be running as special users. It seems that this interferes with the foomatic-filters?! I don't understand exactly why, because foomatic-rip doesn't need any special uid nor has it the setuid bit set. Does someone has the same problem and solved it somehow? Micha
