Ok, I have finally retested this security check:
With /etc/printcap the check runs normally.
Without /etc/printcap these are the messages generated:
# Checking printer configuration files...
--ERROR-- [init006e] `/etc/printcap' does not exist (file src).
--ERROR-- [init006e] `/etc/printcap' does not exist (file infile).
I do not have a problem with this solution assuming this error can be filtered in the tiger.ignore file.
