  [ Marc Deslauriers ]
  * debian/local/apport-hook.py: Also attach AppArmor information and logs.

  [ Jamie Strandboge ]
  * debian/local/apparmor-profile: deny capability block_suspend. It is noisy
    and doesn't seem to actually be needed. This can be revisited if it turns
    out it is needed. (LP: #1031583)

  * debian/patches/network-backends-snmp-queries-optional.patch: SNMP queries
    by network backends can get suppressed now by adding "?snmp=false" to the
    end of the URI. SNMP queries to Bonjour-shared CUPS queue will get
    suppressed by default.
  * debian/patches/usb-backend-reset-after-job-only-for-specific-devices.patch:
    Let the USB backend only send a clean-up reset after the job if it is
    really needed (LP: #1032456), force-uni-directional access for Canon

    which are not yet committed upstream: Canon MP500 (LP: #1032456), MP510
    (LP: #1050009), MP550 (CUPS STR #4155), MP560 (CUPS STR #4155), Brother
    HL-1430 (LP: #1038695), Oki Okipage 14ex (LP: #872483), Oki B410d
    (LP: #872483), all Zebra printers (LP: #1001028).
  * debian/patches/cupsd-conf-remove-obsolete-browse-directives.patch:
    Removed obsolete "BrowseOrder" and "BrowseAllow" lines from cupsd.conf.
  * debian/patches/get-ppd-file-for-statically-configured-bonjour-shared
    -queues.patch:
    Applications could not get the PPD file for statically-configured Bonjour-
    shared print queues (CUPS STR #4159)
  * debian/patches/get-ppd-file-for-statically-configured-ipp-shared
    -queues.patch:
    Applications could not get the PPD file for statically-configured IPP-
    shared print queues (CUPS STR #4178)
  * debian/patches/printers-c-recognize-remote-cups-queue-via-dnssd-uri.patch,
    Treat raw queues pointing to a CUPS server as remote queues (using PPD on
    server) also if they have a "dnssd://..." URI.
  * debian/patches/avahi-not-considered-at-some-dnssd-conditionals.patch: At
    some points Avahi was not considered in conditionals for DNS-SD. This
    broke most of the printer sharing functionality.
  * debian/patches/prevent-crash-due-to-null-host-name-or-fqdn-from-avahi.patch:
    Prevent crash due to NULL host name or FQDN from Avahi (CUPS STR #4183,
    LP: #1046982, LP: #1034045).
  * debian/patches/fix-crash-on-shutdown-caused-by-broken-avahi-config.patch:
    Fix crash on shutdown caused by broken Avahi config (CUPS STR #4192,
    LP: #1036974).
  * 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/cupsd-no-crash-on-avahi-threaded-poll-shutdown.patch:
    Fixed crash which sometimes happens on shutdown of the CUPS daemom,
    caused by a wrong shutdown sequence for shutting down the Avahi threaded
    poll (CUPS STR #4213, CUPS STR #4180, LP: #1034045).
  * debian/patches/filter-out-all-control-characters-from-the-1284-device
    -id.patch:
    Do not only filter newline characters out of device IDs but any
    non-printable character (CUPS STR #4124).
  * debian/patches/ipp-backend-did-not-specify-the-compression-used.patch:
    The IPP backend did not specify the compression used (CUPS STR #4181).
  * 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).
  * debian/patches/work-around-some-broken-ipp-printers.patch: Work around
    some broken IPP printers (CUPS STR #4190). Also catch late authentication
    issues so the backend doesn't just spin on a print request that will never
    succeed.
  * debian/patches/ipp-backend-abort-the-outer-loop-if-we-get-a-failure-from
    -send-document.patch,
    debian/patches/ipp-backend-could-get-stuck-in-an-endless-loop-on-certain
    -network-errors.patch:
    Prevent IPP backend from falling into an infinite loop in certain
    situations (CUPS STR #4194).
  * debian/patches/fix-make-check.patch: Fix "make check".
  * debian/patches/ubuntu/ubuntu-disable-browsing.patch: Updated.
  * debian/cups.install: Removed all references to the discontinued cups-polld.
  * debian/rules: Removed lines for deletion of filters, fonts and glyphs which
    have moved to cups-filters and also the line for commenting out conversion
    rules.
  * debian/rules, debian/cups.install, debian/cups-common.install: Do not
    install fonts and charsets, there are none any more in CUPS.
  * debian/control, debian/libcupsdriver1-dev.install,
    debian/libcupsdriver1.symbols, debian/libcupsdriver1.install:
    libcupsdriver.so got moved to cups-filters as part of libcupsfilters.so.
  * debian/libcupsimage2-dev.install: image.h removed, this API has moved to
    cups-filters.
  * debian/rules: Removed "--with-remote_protocols='CUPS dnssd'" from the
    ./configure command line and removed the "CUPS" from
    "--with-local_protocols='CUPS dnssd'". These settings are not supported
    any more in CUPS 1.6.x.
  * debian/rules, debian/libcups2-dev.examples: Removed references to scripting/
    this subdirectory does not exist any more in CUPS 1.6.x.
  * debian/libcups2.symbols, debian/libcupsimage2.symbols: Refreshed using the
    diff of the dpkg-gensymbols output during build.
  * debian/cups.postinst: Clean /etc/cups/cupsd.conf from all keywords and
    settings which got obsolete with the dropping CUPS Broadcasting/Browsing
    in CUPS 1.6.x: BrowsePoll, BrowseAllow, BrowseDeny, BrowseOrder, and
    BrowseRemoteProtocols lines get removed and the "cups" argument gets
    removed from the BrowseLocalProtocols line (LP: #1052897).
  * Split the "cups" binary package into "cups" and "cups-daemon".
    Installation of "cups-daemon" without "cups" gives a CUPS
    environment for raw queues only, especially as a client-only mode
    with queues pointing to remote printers set up automatically with
    cups-browsed from cups-filters. This environment gives basic
    printing support on low-footprint mobile systems, like Ubuntu for
    Android.

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * manpage-translations.patch: Update German manpage translations, thanks
    Helge Kreutzmann! (Closes: #670042)
  * manpage-translations.patch: Update French manpage translations, thanks
    Julien Patriarca! (Closes: #670224)
  * debian/README.Debian: Explain how to enable cups-lpd, thanks Vincent
    McIntyre. (Closes: #508941)

  [ Didier Raboud ]
  * Make sure unowned obsolete backends are removed on configure.
    (Closes: #683754)
  * Update all debconf translations to cope with the ipp14 addition and
    parallel and serial removals.
  * Add patch to force C locale when testing the (non-)localized PPD
    content fetch.
  * Re-order patches to put the tests-fixing ones earlier.
  * Rename tests-slow-lpstat.patch to
    tests-wait-on-unfinished-jobs-everytime.patch : wait on remaining
    jobs before each test. This fix the too slow architectures' FTBFS.
  * When modprobe'ing usblp, respect the blacklist. Thanks to Julien
    Cristau for noticing!
  * Use cups-filters' filters, type declarations, conversions, libraries
    and banners in the tests. Add cups-filters' and libcupsfilters1-dev
    Build-Depends, with a version bigger than 1.0.24-3~ (to pull bc in).
  * Convert packaging repository to Git, change VCS-* fields accordingly,
    update debian/README.source.
  * Merge releases targeted at wheezy.
  * Refresh all patches using "quilt -p ab".
  * Uploaders:
    - Add myself.
    - Remove Kenshi Muto <email address hidden> with his agreement and with
      great thanks for his past work!
  * Put under Debian Printing Team umbrella.
  * Drop cupsddk transitional package, was transitional in Squeeze.
  * Make libcupsimage2 depend on libcupsfilters1 as functions (and
    exported symbols) moved there.
  * Enable manpage translations by installing them from debian/rules
    when they exist. This allows the build to be more robust against
    non-complete translations.
  * Disable pstops-based-workflow-only-for-printing-ps-on-a-ps-printer.patch,
    as it breaks the build tests in 1.6.1. Re-opens #593338.
  * Remove the obsolete etc/cups/pdftops.conf and etc/cups/acroread.conf
    using cups.maintscript. (Closes: #645442)
  * Drop redundant dpkg-maintscript-helper snippets in cups maintainer
    scripts.
  * Drop redundant Priority and Section values in debian/control.
  * Convert packaging to debhelper 9; drop cdbs Build-Depends.
  * Drop all relationships to libcupsys2{,-dev} and cupsddk-drivers as
    they got removed before Lenny.
  * In tests-ignore-usb-crash.patch, also ignore "[cups-deviced] PID *
    (dnssd) stopped with status 1" errors.
  * Make sure internal libraries relationships are tight enough.
  * Fix STR#4223 "lpadmin to root privilege escalation" by including the
  * upstream heavy fix.
    Fixes CVE-2012-5519, Closes: #692791.
  * Update most patches to cope with the above change.
  * Make sure to drop CVS tags from all config files.
  * Import "The scheduler did not delete job control backup files
    (STR #4244)" from upstream to fix the testsuite.
