so i have removed the cups from synaptic and wanted to switch back to a more stable env
replace the unstable string with testing in
cat /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing main deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing main deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing non-free deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing non-free deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing contrib deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing contrib
record all the packages that you have for posterity
sudo dpkg --get-selections > dpkglist.txt
remove some packages that offend your desktop eg some gnome3 ones or cups
then is time to restore the package list as it was before removal and update
sudo dpkg --set-selections < dpkglist.txt sudo apt-get -y update sudo apt-get dselect-upgradeNow is time to reinstall cups
sudo apt-get install cups hplip
