on Gentoo you have:
qlist net-print/cups | grep backend
...
/usr/libexec/cups/backend/implicitclass
/usr/libexec/cups/backend/beh
/usr/libexec/cups/backend/serial
/usr/libexec/cups/backend/parallel
/usr/libexec/cups/backend/driverless-fax
/usr/libexec/cups/backend/driverless
/usr/libexec/cups/backend/cups-pdf
but now I see this in Gentoo ebuild:
# Install in /usr/libexec always, instead of using /usr/lib/cups, as that
# makes more sense when facing multilib support.
sed -i -e 's:CUPS_SERVERBIN="$exec_prefix/lib/cups":CUPS_SERVERBIN="$exec_prefix/libexec/cups":g' configure ||die
econf "${myeconfargs[@]}"
sed -i -e "s:SERVERBIN.*:SERVERBIN = \"\$\(BUILDROOT\)${EPREFIX}/usr/libexec/cups\":" Makedefs || die
sed -i -e "s:#define CUPS_SERVERBIN.*:#define CUPS_SERVERBIN \"${EPREFIX}/usr/libexec/cups\":" config.h || die
sed -i -e "s:cups_serverbin=.*:cups_serverbin=\"${EPREFIX}/usr/libexec/cups\":" cups-config || die
so it appears to be a Gentoo addition.
Would perhaps
pkg-config cups --variable=cups_serverbin
or
cups-config --serverbin
be acceptable? If no we can just drop this and Gentoo will continue to patch bluez for cups
