cups-filters 1.0.44-1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

cups-filters (1.0.44-1) unstable; urgency=low


  * New upstream release 1.0.44

  [ Till Kamppeter ]
  * Split binary package "cups-filters" into "cups-filters" and
    "cups-filters-core-drivers". In low-footprint (mobile) environments we
    can restrict the printer support to only IPP printers with known
    common languages (PDF, PostScript, PWG Raster, PCL) to get rid of
    the heavy load of drivers and PPDs for thousands of printers. From
    cups-filters we need only the "cups-browsed" and
    "cups-filters-core-drivers" (plus library packages) then and with
    "cups-daemon" and "cups-core-drivers" from CUPS and "poppler-utils"
    and "libpoppler" from Poppler one gets a low-footprint printing stack
    for mobile devices setting up IPP printers automatically (Needs
    "CreateIPPPrinterQueues Yes" in cups-browsed.conf).
  * AppArmor profile: Allow reading and writing in /tmp/ as cups-browsed
    creates temporary files when setting up native IPP printers PPD-less
    ("CreateIPPPrinterQueues Yes" in cups-browsed.conf).

  [ Didier Raboud ]
  * Strip UNRELEASED 1.0.39-1 changelog entry (Closes: #733981)
  * Drop update-rc.d arguments in Debian, as they are no longer
    supported

cups-browsed: OpenPrinting CUPS Filters - cups-browsed

 This package provides cups-browsed, a daemon which browses the Bonjour
 broadcasts of shared remote CUPS printers and makes the printers
 available locally, replacing the CUPS broadcasting/browsing which was
 dropped in CUPS 1.6.x. This way the old behavior of having the remote
 printers available automatically is now re-implemented with Bonjour.
 .
 cups-browsed is also useful with a CUPS >= 1.6 client to allow the
 latter to browse the printer list of CUPS < 1.6 servers (by using the
 old 'cups' protocol in BrowseRemoteProtocols).
