To the lpr maintainer (which I'm not).
The bug is that somewhere in the rmjob routine the full qualified
hostname is compared with the short hostname alone in order to
determine the owner.
I wasn't able who put in the full hostname.
Owen: lpr 5.9-11 works (but probably doesn't have the security fix)
David, who stumbled over this problem too.
