Thank you for your report!

However, processing it in order to get sufficient information for the
developers failed (it does not generate an useful symbolic stack trace). This
might be caused by some outdated packages which were installed on your system
at the time of the report:

encounter the crash, please file a new report.

Thank you for your understanding, and sorry for the inconvenience!

So the real reason for this failure is that the cups-dbg package only has debug symbols for libcups*.so, not for the daemon or the other programs.
