        updates (LP: #1828401)
        - debian/patches/lp1828401.patch: don't use undocumented Ghostscript

  • cups-filters (1.8.3-2ubuntu3.3) xenial-proposed; urgency=medium
    
      * Applied another measure to avoid cups-browsed hanging on shutdown
        (LP: #1638986):
         - Do not schedule failed operations for repeating during shutdown.
      * Added facility for time-stamped debug logging into a file (Use
        "-l" command line option or "DebugLogging file" cups-browsed.conf
        directive).

  • cups-filters (1.8.3-2ubuntu3.2) xenial-proposed; urgency=medium
    
      * Applied several measure to avoid cups-browsed hanging on shutdowb
        (LP: #1638986):
         - Made sure that the local CUPS daemon is always accessed the same way
           and not sometimes via domain socket and sometimes via localhost:631.
         - Shortened timeouts for http connections so that in case of a
           server access failure the functions return more quickly.
         - Always close http connections correctly after use.
         - If the implicitclass backend fails to access a remote server, do
           not repeat the job immediately but after a certain time interval,
           to avoid cups-browsed getting notification bombs.
         - Call g_main_context_wakeup(NULL) after each g_main_loop_quit(gmainloop)

  • cups-filters (1.8.3-2ubuntu3.1) xenial-proposed; urgency=medium
    
      * Added "Requires=cups-service" to the cups-browsed.service file to make
        cups-browsed always shut down before CUPS to avoid the system hanging
        during shutdown (LP: #1579905).

  • cups-filters (1.8.3-2ubuntu3) xenial; urgency=medium
    
      * Undo cups-filters-lsb and cups-filters-invalid-mta changes, we
        will fix this in a more generic way in a post-release update.

  • cups-filters (1.8.3-2ubuntu2) xenial; urgency=medium
    
      * Added Conflicts:/Replaces:/Provides: foomatic-filters-beh to the
        cups-filters binary package due to the fact that the beh backend is
        now part of cups-filters (LP: #1563686).

  • cups-filters (1.8.3-2ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium
    
      * Merge from Debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
         - Added the binary packages cups-filters-lsb and cups-filters-invalid-mta
           to temporarily replace the dropped LSB support in Debian/Ubuntu which
           we need for distribution-independent printer driver packages. This
           will be removed as soon as a new concept for distribution-independent
           printer driver packages is in place.
         - Added build dependency on python3-all-dev for the cups-filters-lsb
           binary package.
    
    cups-filters (1.8.3-2) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      [ Till Kamppeter ]
      * Install the new /usr/share/cups/mime/cupsfilters-ghostscript.convs file
    
    cups-filters (1.8.3-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream release
       - cups-browsed: When creating or modifying a local print queue
         set the printer-is-shared bit to false in a separate IPP
         request as this operation errors on queues directly pointing
         to remote CUPS queues with the IPP backend. This way we can
         ignore the error and assure that all other settings are
         applied (LP: #1560099)
    
      * Refresh debian/copyright to reflect the gstoraster convs file split
    
    cups-filters (1.8.2-3) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.7 without changes needed
      * Drop superfluous liblouis-data dependency (Closes: #816304)

  • cups-filters (1.8.2-2) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Make the liblouis-bin an alternate recommendation of liblouisutdml-bin
        (Closes: #813094)

  • cups-filters (1.8.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream release
        - cups-browsed: Optionally generate also local queues pointing
          to remote raw queues. Usually only queues pointing to remote
          queues with PPD/driver are created (Closes: #814020)

  • cups-filters (1.8.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream release
        - cups-browsed: Do not disable queues which still have jobs (and
          therefore cannot be removed) when avahi-daemon goes away, the
          print server is most probably still available and printing can
          be continued. Especially important on mobile devices where
          avahi-daemon is shut down when the print dialog is closed (and
          the job(s) still printing).

  • cups-filters (1.7.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream release
        - cups-browsed: Added possibility to trigger the auto shutdown
          by the queues of cups-browsed being without jobs. Before
          auto shutdown was only possible when all queues have gone
          away. This allows auto shutdown on mobile devices where
          avahi-daemon is also used for other things than printing.

  • cups-filters (1.6.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream release
       - foomatic-rip: Fixed buffer overflow when reading environment
         variables CUPS_FONTPATH, CUPS_DATADIR, and GS_LIB
         (Bug #1336)
       - beh: Introduced beh, the Backend Error Handler, a wrapper
         backend to make handling of backend errors more
         configurable
      * Refresh debian/copyright
      * Install the 'beh' backend in cups-filters

      * New upstream release
       - cups-browsed: Add -c, -o and -h command line options
      * Remove libpng12-dev Build-Depends alternative to libpng-dev
        (Closes: #810174)
      * Remove leftover cups-filter-dbg comment in debian/control

  • cups-filters (1.4.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream release
       - foomatic-rip: SECURITY FIX: Also consider the semicolon (';') as an
         illegal shell escape character. Thanks to Adam Chester for the hint
         (CVE-2015-8560, Closes: #807930)
       - Added support for Braille embossing via CUPS
    
      [ Till Kamppeter ]
      * Changes for the upstream addition of the Braille embosser drivers
      * Moved the implicitclass backend from the cups-filters into the cups-browsed
        binary package as it is used by cups-browsed (and so already needed by a
        level-1 printing stack)
      * Added dependencies on imagemagick (>= 6.4~), liblouisutdml-bin, and
        poppler-utils to cups-filters, as they are needed to convert images, text,
        and PDF to Braille, added antiword and docx2txt to Suggests: as they allow
        converting Word files to Braille

      * New upstream release
        - foomatic-rip: SECURITY FIX: Also consider the back tick ('`') as an
          illegal shell escape character. Thanks to Michal Kowalczyk from the
          Google Security Team for the hint (CVE-2015-8327)
    
      [ Till Kamppeter ]
      * Moved /usr/share/cups/mime/* from cups-filters to cups-filters-core-drivers
        to get them installed in the level-2 printing stack on mobile devices.
