Changelog
cups (1.4.6-8) unstable; urgency=low
[ Till Kamppeter ] * debian/patches/usb-backend-accept-old-usblp-uris.dpatch: Let the libusb-based "usb" backend accept also the old device URIs from the usblp-kernel-module-based "usb" backend, so that printing stays working for users who update from an old CUPS package with the usblp-based backend without needing to migrate the URIs. Warnings in error_log tell about the use of old URIs and the advantages of updating them. * debian/patches/cups-deviced-allow-device-ids-with-newline.dpatch: Fixed segfault happening sometimes when a device with a newline in its device ID is found. [ Martin Pitt ] * Drop usb-backend-both-usblp-and-libusb.dpatch. It's causing crashes, and upstream does not want it either. Instead, add a blacklist file debian/local/blacklist-cups-usblp.patch and install it into /etc/modprobe.d/; that way, we don't require kernels to disable usblp, and allow other spoolers than cups to work. * debian/cups.postinst: rmmod usblp on upgrades from earlier versions or fresh installs, to make above change effective without reboots as well. -- Martin Pitt <email address hidden> Fri, 10 Jun 2011 11:35:33 +0200
