This bug was fixed in the package cups - 1.4.5-3 --------------- cups (1.4.5-3) unstable; urgency=low [ Till Kamppeter ] * debian/rules: Do not remove the /usr/share/cups/model/ directory, some manufacturer-supplied printer drivers (like from Brother) still use it. * debian/rules: Remove a cost factor change for pstops. It is not used any more and overridden by pstops-based-workflow-only-for-printing-ps-on-a-ps-printer.dpatch * debian/local/filters/pdf-filters/filter/pdftoraster.cxx, debian/local/filters/pdf-filters/conf/pdftoraster.convs, debian/local/filters/pdf-filters/README, debian/local/filters/pdf-filters/addtocups debian/local/filters/pdf-filters/conf/HP-PhotoSmart_Pro_B8300-hpijs-pdftoijs.ppd, debian/local/filters/pdf-filters/config-scripts/cups-pdf-filters.m4, debian/local/filters/pdf-filters/removefromcups: Upstream changes of the PDF filter add-on package: o Added the Poppler-based pdftoraster filter. This filter is much faster than the Ghostscript-based filter (LP: #668800). o Cleaned up the sample PPD file for pdftoijs (does not go into the Debian/Ubuntu package of CUPS). * debian/rules: Rename the newly added Poppler-based pdftoraster filter to pdftoraster-poppler to not conflict with Ghostscript's pdftoraster and lower its cost factor so that it is prioritized against Ghostscript's filter. * debian/patches/cups-avahi.dpatch: Updated to fix assertion failure (LP: #707592, Red Hat bug #672143). [ Martin Pitt ] * debian/patches/ubuntu-upstart.dpatch: Don't ignore failures from apparmor-profile-load. cups (1.4.5-2) unstable; urgency=low [ Till Kamppeter ] * debian/patches/cups-avahi.dpatch: Added patch from Tim Waugh from Red Hat to implement full Avahi support, not only for printer discovery by the "dnssd" backend but also for print queue broadcasting and browsing by the scheduler (CUPS daemon). Fixes LP: #465916. * debian/patches/dnssd-avahi.dpatch: Removed, is part of new cups-avahi.dpatch. * debian/patches/quiesce-bonjour-warning.dpatch: Removed, not needed any more with the new cups-avahi.dpatch. * debian/rules: Added "--with-local_protocols='CUPS dnssd' --with-remote_protocols='CUPS dnssd'" to the command line of "./configure". This adds support for DNS-SD-based browsing and broadcasting by default. * debian/patches/configure-default-browse-protocols.dpatch: Fixed handling of "--with-local_protocols=..." and "--with-remote_protocols=..." on the command line of "./configure". Now (quoted) values with spaces, like "CUPS dnssd" are treated correctly. * debian/patches/usb-backend-no-segfault-on-bad-device-id.dpatch: Assure that the device ID string read from a USB device can never be a mess: Try other byte order for device ID string length also if length is too small, empty the read device ID string if there is an IOCTL failure, reject ID strings with unprintable characters, clean white space in the ID string, and finally accept the empty ID string as an unknown device. This overcomes the problem that USB-to-Parallel adapter cables do not report back a usable ID string. With these changes it is at least possible to use one adapter cable per computer if the cables do not report unique serial numbers via libusb and any number of adapter cables if they do report serial numbers via libusb. Real USB printers can always be used, also if there are other printers connected with an adapter cable (LP: #468701, LP: #564917). [ Martin Pitt ] * debian/local/apparmor-profile: Explicitly deny access to ttyUSB* to silence noise. This is presumably an extra control channel for some USB printers, but cupsd can't use it anyway. (LP: #692892) * ubuntu-upstart.dpatch: Drop reloading of Samba. It didn't work in some cases, and is better fixed in samba's upstart script (start cups in its pre-start). * debian/rules: Set LC_MESSAGES=C to avoid breaking the test suite in non-English locales. This is a temporary fix until it is resolved upstream (see http://www.cups.org/str.php?L3765). [ Kees Cook ] * ubuntu-upstart.dpatch: Use AppArmor profile loading helper. (LP: #690040) -- Martin Pitt
