samba - Sep 2005 - completed printjobs stay in queue after "upgrade" 3.0.20rc2 -> 3.0.20

A few weeks ago, I upgraded Samba 3.0.1x to 3.0.14a . After the upgrade, 
all completed printjobs on all 40 printers stayed in samba's print queue 
(they were removed from the unix-printqueue). When I installed 
3.0.20rc2, everything back to normal.

But since the upgrade this weekend to 3.0.20, the same thing happens 
again: no jobs were removed from the samba printerqueue's.

Removing the .tdb files clears the queue, but doesn't solve the problem...

Any hints?

Yesterday evening, I installed the old 3.0.20rc2 files again (make revert).

When I first tested, printjobs were removed just fine from the windows 
queue. But this morning, printerqueues were filling up again.
I don't see anything related in the logfiles.

Should I remove all the printer tdb files before restarting samba?

Am I the only one with this problem (in this version of Samba)?

I just combed through the diff between 3.0.20rc2 and 3.0.20.
I don't see anything that would cause the problem to re-emerge.
Is is possible that you just didn't see it on 3.0.20rc2 because
of network conditions?  And once 3.0.20 was running long enough
the problem popped back up?

I'll try to setup an LPRng server tomorrow and track this down.

Brecht,

Just out of curiousity, try setting the lpq command to
"/usr/bin/lpq -s -P%p@linus".  LPRng has a way of reporting
completed jobs.  I'm still looking to this though.

$ lpq -Pq1
Printer: q1@tornado
~ Queue: no printable jobs in queue
~ Server: no server active
~ Status: job 'root@tornado+250' saved at 12:13:51.055
~ Rank   Owner/ID               Pr/Class Job Files                 Size Time
done   root@tornado+250             A   250 smbprn.00000005.5Pa 112115
12:13:50

$ lpq -s -Pq1
q1@tornado 0 jobs

Scratch that last idea.  Could you send me a screen shot
of the windows print queu window showing the completed jobs ?
