   5 ----------------------
   6
   7 - The scheduler's `-t` option did not force all errors to the standard error

   9 - Fixed a typo in the CUPS Programming Manual (Issue #5042)
  10 - Fixed RPM packaging issue (Issue #5043, Issue #5044)

  12   there was no default printer (Issue #5046)

  19   all registered IPP attributes and values (Issue #5056)
  20 - The --enable-libtool configure option requires a path to the libtool program,
  21   but doesn't document or check for it (Issue #5062)

  42   (rdar://33228500)
