Description

usr/src/lib/print/mod_ipp/* allows printing via IPP protocol to printers managed using the (SysV-style) "lp" sub-system.
This module has to be compiled in a way compatible with whatever Apache version your distributions ships, which has become problematic.
In fact, the mod_ipp code has long been out of date with recent apache versions.
It's time to let mod_ipp go away, and direct users to CUPS for IPP printing.

If we get rid of mod_ipp, #7441 can be closed.

I see this as step #1 in eventually letting the sysv printing system (lpsched) go away altogether.
