Do you take into account that cupsys was renamed to cups in the Intrepid
release cycle? This means the figures of "cupsys" and "cups" bugs have
to get summed up. For triagers it menas that everything which is still
valid in Intrepid needs to be moved to "cups".

In addition. triagers should know that the printing subsystem consists
of many packages, not only cups, but also ghostscript, foomatic-*,
hplip, gutenprint, splix, system-config-printer, ... Users do not know
that and assign printing-related bug reports to cups/cupsys or
system-config-printer in most cases. Triagers should move these to the
correct packages.
