* debian/patches/forward-port-cups-1-5-x-cups-browsing.patch: Re-introduced
CUPS Browsing/Broadcasting for automatic discovery of shared CUPS printers
on the local network. We will keep this for the Quantal cycle until we
get automatic discovery of Bonjour-broadcasted printers, which most
probably needs to be implemented in the application's print dialogs. This
will only be possible to be done in Quantal+1 (13.04). The patch is large
but all code added worked very well in many generations of CUPS and the
code added back in smoothly without need of alterations of the existing
code (LP: #1061063, LP: #1061069).
* debian/rules: Set "./configure" arguments
"--with-local_protocols='CUPS dnssd' --with-remote_protocols='CUPS dnssd'"
to make the re-introduction of CUPS Browsing/Broadcasting work correctly.
* debian/cups.postinst: Do not remove the "Browse..." keywords from cupsd.conf
any more as we have re-introduced the Browsing/Broadcasting functionality.
* debian/patches/fix-another-spot-where-avahi-crashes-cupsd-because-it-does-not-handle-null-values-from-its-own-apis.patch:
Fix another spot where Avahi crashes cupsd because it does not handle NULL
values returned by its own APIs (CUPS STR #4200, LP: #1041013).
* debian/patches/ipp-backend-did-not-send-cancel-request-to-printers-when-a-job-was-canceled-and-printer-did-not-support-create-job.patch:
The IPP backend did not send a cancel request to printers when a job was
canceled and the printer did not support Create-Job. This is to improve the
"ipp" backend as much as possible to reduce the ned of the "ipp14" backend
("ipp" backend of CUPS 1.4.x added to the Debian/Ubuntu package as fallback
in case of regressions of the current "ipp" backend).
