Bug Description

I wrote

"Where is the fixed binary? I want to try installing it and see if things work end-to-end"

and Claude quietly ran

sudo install -m 755 /home/bernie/src/libcupsfilters/.libs/libcupsfilters.so.2.0.0 /usr/lib64/libcupsfilters.so.2.0.0

No prompts. I almost missed it.

I was probably unclear about who should install what, but... shouldn't altering the host system be flagged as a dangerous operation requiring explicit user approval?
