Thanks Paul,
My system seems to match yours on the context issue.
I noticed there are updates to SELinux in the same updates so wander if 
there was a problem before SELinux was updated. If that's the case I think I 
need to re-apply the cups update, if I can find the details.
Regards
Dave

You may be in need of a relabeling for SELinux there.  Try this:

su -c 'restorecon -R /etc/cups'

My system shows the label for that file as:

-rw-r-----  root lp   system_u:object_r:cupsd_rw_etc_t:s0 
subscriptions.conf.O
