490 was installed and was included in the SSL include
491 path (STR #2538)
492 - The scheduler did not reject requests with charsets

592
593 CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3.0
594
595 - The scheduler did not handle out-of-file conditions

651 and set the current (cached) authorization string to use for
652 HTTP requests.
653 - Updated the default cupsd.conf policy to list the
654 "administrative" operations separately from the "printer
655 control" operations so that it is easier to define a

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

705 file to use the default authentication defined by the
706 DefaultAuthType directive.

708 when none is specified in the snmp.conf file; this allows
709 the backend to be easily disabled as needed (STR #2434)
710 - Added a new cupsctl command for doing basic changes to
711 the cupsd.conf file (STR #1777)
712 - Added a new ppdLocalizeIPPReason() function to get the
713 localized text/URI for a given IPP reason keyword for a
714 driver.
715 - Removed the deskjet2.ppd driver, as it only worked with
716 a very small subset of HP DeskJet printers and was
717 confusing to users. The rastertohp driver still
718 supports the deskjet2.ppd options for existing queues.
719 - The scheduler did not add a trailing banner page if a

736 from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
737 (STR #2334)
738 - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports the cupsModelNumber attribute
739 from a PPD file in the ppd-model-number attribute (STR
740 #2383)

742 ppd-type attribute based on the cupsFax and cupsFilter
743 attributes in a PPD file (STR #2383)
744 - Added a new printer attribute called "cups-version"
745 which reports the version of CUPS that is running
746 (STR #2240)
747 - backendRunLoop() now aborts immediately on SIGTERM
748 if no data has been written yet (STR #2103)
749 - Due to poor IPP support from the vendors, the SNMP

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

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

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

829 which specifies the character set that is used in PJL
830 strings (STR #1969)
831 - Moved the definition of the (private) _http_s structure
