OdyX was so kind to update cups in the mean time. It now no longer
creates a dangling symlink.
While this is still a valid and bad bug in systemd, I'm nonetheless
downgrade it to important, since the circumstances to trigger it are
pretty special. So neither critical nor grave really qualifies.

I've forwarded the bug upstream.
