665 and set the current (cached) authorization string to use for
666 HTTP requests.
667 - Updated the default cupsd.conf policy to list the
668 "administrative" operations separately from the "printer
669 control" operations so that it is easier to define a

672 from cupsd.conf.default in the CUPS config directory.
673 - Added a help file for using Kerberos with CUPS.

719 file to use the default authentication defined by the
720 DefaultAuthType directive.

723 the backend to be easily disabled as needed (STR #2434)
724 - Added a new cupsctl command for doing basic changes to
725 the cupsd.conf file (STR #1777)
726 - Added a new ppdLocalizeIPPReason() function to get the
727 localized text/URI for a given IPP reason keyword for a
728 driver.
729 - Removed the deskjet2.ppd driver, as it only worked with
730 a very small subset of HP DeskJet printers and was
731 confusing to users. The rastertohp driver still
732 supports the deskjet2.ppd options for existing queues.
733 - The scheduler did not add a trailing banner page if a

750 from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
751 (STR #2334)
752 - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports the cupsModelNumber attribute
753 from a PPD file in the ppd-model-number attribute (STR
754 #2383)

756 ppd-type attribute based on the cupsFax and cupsFilter
757 attributes in a PPD file (STR #2383)
758 - Added a new printer attribute called "cups-version"
759 which reports the version of CUPS that is running
760 (STR #2240)
761 - backendRunLoop() now aborts immediately on SIGTERM
762 if no data has been written yet (STR #2103)
763 - Due to poor IPP support from the vendors, the SNMP

776 icons, profiles, and dialog extensions (STR #2326)

778 main administration page. Instead, a new "List Available
779 Printers" button is provided that shows a separate page
780 with the list of printers.
781 - The web interface now supports setting the banner and
782 policy options on raw printers and classes (STR #2238)
783 - The socket backend now reads any pending back-channel

794 - The scheduler now reports the PostScript product string
795 from PPD files in CUPS-Get-PPDs responses (STR #1900)

843 which specifies the character set that is used in PJL
844 strings (STR #1969)
845 - Moved the definition of the (private) _http_s structure
