  • cups (1.7.0~rc1-0ubuntu4) saucy; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/cups-1.6.4-changes.patch: Merged latest fixes from upstream,
        taken from CUPS 1.6.4, as there is no public repository of CUPS any more
        and due to Apple policies the next 1.7.x release, 1.7.0 final, happens
        only with the next release of Mac OS X. Fixes:
         - Removed some duplicate page size definitions for some ISO sizes that were
           causing problems
         - The IPP backend did not add the "last-document" attribute
         - Added a SyncOnClose directive to cups-files.conf to force cupsd to
           call fsync before closing any configuration/state files it writes
           (LP: #1157972, Red Hat bug #984883).
         - Added USB quirk rule for Lexmark E238
         - Closed server connections were still not always detected
         - The libusb-based USB backend now loads its list of quirks from files
           in /usr/share/cups/usb instead of using a hardcoded table, this
           makes spotting and fixing USB problems much easier.
         - The scheduler did not properly register ICC color profiles with
           colord
      * debian/patches/usb-backend-more-quirk-rules.patch,
        debian/patches/handle-server-terminating-connection.patch,
        debian/patches/colord-add-profile-fix.patch: Removed, included upstream.
      * debian/patches/pidfile.patch,

        debian/patches/airprint-support.patch,

        debian/patches/show-compile-command-lines.patch,
        debian/patches/log-debug-history-nearly-unlimited.patch: Refreshed with
        quilt.
      * debian/local/apparmor-profile: Silenced AppArmor noise in syslog
        (LP: #1229766).
      * debian/local/cupsd-sync-files-on-close.patch: Activate CUPS daemon
        syncing files when closing, so that config files (like printers.conf)
        do not mysteriously disappear (LP: #1157972, Red Hat bug #984883).
      * debian/cups-server-common.install: Install /usr/share/cups/usb/ with the
        USB backend quirk rules file.

  • cups (1.7.0~rc1-0ubuntu3) saucy; urgency=low
    
      * debian/local/cups-daemon.cups.upstart: Increased timeout for waiting for
        the CUPS daemon to get ready before automatically configuring printers
        from 3 sec to 30 sec, on slower systems CUPS often needs more than 3
        seconds and so the automatic printer configuration does not get done
        (LP: #933308).
      * debian/cups.dirs: Create empty /etc/cups/interfaces directory
        (LP: #499585).

      * debian/patches/manpage-translations.patch: Temporarily deactivated, po4a
        problem.
      * debian/cups-client.install, debian/rules: Install the newly added ippfind
        utility and its man page.

      * debian/libcups2.symbols, debian/libcupsppdc1.symbols: Refreshed using the
        diff of the dpkg-gensymbols output during build.

  • cups (1.6.3-1) unstable; urgency=low
    
    
      * New 1.6.3 upstream release:
        - The lp, lpq, lpr, and lpstat now display an error message advising the
          use of the /version=1.1 ServerName option (<rdar://problem/14290628>)
        - Added documentation about the /version=1.1 option to ServerName in
          client.conf (<rdar://problem/14216262>)
        - httpStatus(HTTP_ERROR) did not return a useful error message
          (Closes: #645436)

          printer set in the lpoptions file (Closes: #711848)

        - The scheduler no longer tries to do Kerberos authentication over the

        Thanks to Evgeni Golov (Closes: #704238)

      [ Didier Raboud ]

      * Update the patch adding libusb error handling to also discard its
        errors in the counting of warning messages; this should make the
        error-suite succeed in more cases.

      [ Till Kamppeter ]
      * In Ubuntu, let the cups-daemon binary package depend on
        avahi-daemon, not only recommend it, as the Upstart script for CUPS
        starts CUPS only after starting avahi-daemon (LP: #1133794).
      * In the logrotate config file: Do not remove CUPS' log files while
        the CUPS daemon is running. Stop CUPS, move the files, and then
        start it again.  This avoids crashes during the log rotation process
        (LP: #1086019).
      * Add patch to add more error handling to the libusb-based USB
        backend, especially to avoid a crash when USB is disabled in the
        BIOS (LP: #1108719).
