3fc87a99 4CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.20rc1
5
0f71c41e 6 - The scheduler now passes the first port that is bound
7 to the local loopback or "any" addresses to the CGI
8 programs rather than the port that the browser
9 connected to (STR #103)
d3d40607 10 - The cupstestppd program now checks for bad
11 JobPatchFile attributes and incorrect versions of the
12 Manufacturer attribute for HP printers (STR #155)
13 - The filter makefile incorrectly installed
14 libcupsimage.a in the filter directory (STR #180)
15 - The scheduler did not verify that the job history
16 files define the job-priority and
17 job-originating-user-name attributes (STR #178)
a09a157e 18 - The pstops filter didn't handle poorly-formed binary
19 PostScript files that had CTRL-D's in them (STR #156)
5a617005 20 - The ppdOpen*() and cupsLangGet() functions did not
21 make a copy of the old locale strings when using the
22 POSIX locale when reading files, which apparently
23 caused problems with some implementations of the
24 standard C library. (STR #159)
25 - The pdftops filter did not work properly with some
26 embedded Type1C fonts (STR #177)
0e2e516e 27 - Updated the pdftops filter to be based upon Xpdf

30 running CGI and filter processes (STR #185)
31 - The scheduler no longer calls malloc and free from the
32 signal handlers (STR #190)
964eb42f 33 - The USB backend now uses the manufacturer and model
34 strings if the description string is not available
35 (STR #174)
fd8e0b1e 36 - The ppdOpen functions still supported the
37 VariablePaperSize attribute, which was removed in v4.0
38 of the PPD spec. This caused problems with PPD files
39 that relocated the PageSize option to a non-standard
40 group (STR #158)
9fcd7a75 41 - The cups.list file referenced MAN1EXT, MAN3EXT, and
42 MAN5EXT, but none of those were actually defined (STR
43 #147)

45 the connection is terminated before the first byte of
46 chunk data is sent/received (STR #143)
2f20a999 47 - Printers with special characters in their names were
48 not accessible from the web interface (STR #120)

51 - The lpstat command now shows the printer-state-message
52 and printer-state-reasons attributes whenever they are
53 not blank (STR #152)
33c76e27 54 - The French and German option-conflict.tmpl template
55 files did not get installed (STR #148)
56 - The cups.list.in file did not work when compiling
57 without shared libraries (STR #149)
58 - The DSOFLAGS included the LDFLAGS, which causes
59 problems on at least HP-UX (STR #150)
f49663d5 60 - The fax printer support did not keep track of the fax
61 capability bit (STR #144)
62 - The appleLangDefault() function could leak a small
63 amount of memory (STR #145)
2e8cd988 64 - The ppdOpen() functions now mirror all normal
65 attributes to the attribute list; previously only
66 certain unassigned attributes would be added (STR
af50faa7 67 #139)
68 - The ppdEmitJCL() function wrote JCL commands to stdout
69 instead of the passed file pointer (STR #142)
33b8a82d 70 - The httpGets() function could, in certain states,
71 block waiting for data (STR #132)
ae90e335 72 - The cupsEmitJCL() function not outputs an empty @PJL
73 command after the PJL language escape to work around
74 bugs in certain PJL implementations (STR #131)
75 - The cupsEmit*() functions didn't set the orientation
76 value properly (STR #127)
3fc87a99 77 - The cups.spec file didn't list the rc2.d init
ae90e335 78 directory or the cupstestppd file (STR #134)
3fc87a99 79
80
8dc4af74 81CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19
82
a17e6548 83 - The GNU TLS code incorrectly used
84 gnutls_check_pending() instead of
85 gnutls_record_check_pending() (STR #128)
8c5f90ff 86 - The ppdEmit() functions output "PageSize Custom"
87 instead of "CustomPageSize True" in the DSC comments.
88 Also, the custom page size code did not use the
89 ParamCustomPageSize attributes (STR #127)
ea13a0f9 90 - The cupstestppd command did not list the conflicting
91 options (STR #123)
f9e6375d 92 - The lpq command did not ensure that there was
93 whitespace between the fields in the job listing (STR
94 #117)
95 - The German web templates had errors (STR #119)
314ee107 96 - The configure script didn't specify the static
97 libraries properly when configuring with the
98 --disable-shared option (STR #104)
5c47aed9 99 - The cups.list file used file dependencies for package
100 formats other than portable, RPM, and Debian (STR #98)
101 - cupsLangGet() didn't use its language cache (STR #97)
31d18669 102 - "lpq -P" would segfault instead of showing a usage
103 message (STR #94)
8dc4af74 104 - Fixed compiler warnings in pdftops filter (STR #96)
105
106
af57319f 107CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19rc5
7f797921 108
1ed20df6 109 - Jobs with banner pages that were printed to implicit
110 classes would get double banner pages for each
111 file/banner in the job (STR #68)
8fa5f1c6 112 - The mime.convs file was missing the filter definition
113 for Windows BMP (image/x-bitmap) files (STR #85)
8fc34542 114 - The scheduler allowed some READ-ONLY job attributes to
115 be set, which could cause the scheduler to fail on the
116 next restart (STR #82)
dd4497dd 117 - The lp and lpr commands did not report when the
118 scheduler was not responding; instead, the user would
119 incorrectly see a "no default destination" error (STR
120 #70)
92498b68 121 - cupsLangGet() could fail on OSX due to a corrupt
122 language preference (STR #78)
92e48f04 123 - Added more checks for HTTP request timeouts.
af57319f 124 - The scheduler dropped the first non-alpha character
125 after an open brace when doing attribute substitutions
126 in banner pages (STR #77)
7f797921 127 - The scheduler child might send SIGUSR1 to the parent
128 before the signal handler was installed; this didn't
129 prevent the scheduler from starting but produced an
130 annoying error message (STR #45)
131
132
2e6bce36 133CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19rc4
3dea040b 134
fb766c9e 135 - The lp command did not accept "-" for printing from
136 the standard input as required by POSIX 1003.1 (STR
137 #59)

139 the page_log file documentation in the SAM (STR #31)
a0d4f607 140 - The German web interface templates did not use the
141 right paths for job operations (STR #54)
2e6bce36 142 - The scheduler would consume all available CPU if
143 started with a pending job in the queue (STR #35)
3dea040b 144 - The polling daemon allocated an extra localization
145 buffer but did not free it, causing cups-polld to
146 eventually use all available memory (STR #40)
147
148
e309e07a 149CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19rc3
150
b07e0cc2 151 - The scheduler could get in an infinite loop cancelling
152 jobs using "cancel -u user dest" (STR #48)
153 - The "cancel -u user" command did nothing (it should
154 cancel all jobs on all printers owned by the named
155 user - STR #48)
b01791df 156 - The scheduler would write 0-length job control files
157 (STR #46)
9b2fe6bd 158 - Updated the French man pages (translation provided by
159 Gilles QUERRET)
aa3b74e1 160 - The scheduler would delete all printers from
161 printers.conf if a job was active when a HUP signal
162 was handled (STR #47)
163 - The cups-polld program would leak memory if it was
164 unable to send browse packets to the loopback
165 interface (STR #40)
bb9df75d 166 - The scheduler did not put the
167 job-originating-host-name attribute in the job
168 attributes group.

170 defined by the IPP implementation document.
335b78e9 171 - Scan backends first, PPDs second (STR #37)
3d16d701 172 - Updated the Netatalk documentation in the SAM (STR #38
173 and #39)
254aa207 174 - The test suite sent text files to a non-PS print queue,
175 which requires ESP Ghostscript (provided separately).
176 Now send the JPEG test file (STR #33)
177 - The test suite did not show the estimated disk space
178 requirements (STR #33)
179 - The test suite did not set the MaxLogSize directive to
180 0 to prevent log file rotation (STR #33)
181 - The test suite still setup the old CUPS Ghostscript
182 symlinks (STR #33)
c7985008 183 - The pstops filter did not report the correct number of
184 copies for the page_log file when printing collated
185 copies to a printer that doesn't support them in
186 hardware (STR #32)
3fa35ec0 187 - cupsLangGet() needs to set the CTYPE locale to "C"
188 (POSIX) to avoid erroneous tolower/toupper values (fix
189 suggested by Bjoern Jacke)
380b07e9 190 - Fixed a typo in the cups.list.in file.
e309e07a 191 - Updated all of the Western European locales to default
3fa35ec0 192 to ISO-8859-15 (for Euro support, suggested by Bjoern
193 Jacke)
194 - Updated the German message catalog (update provided by
195 Bjoern Jacke)
e309e07a 196
197
b696f4e3 198CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19rc2
199
ac098b06 200 - cupsLangGet() now sets the encoding field based on the
201 trailing charset in the locale name, and doesn't look
202 for a message catalog in a specific locale.charset
203 directory. This fixes STR #26 and is more in line
204 with the CUPS 1.2 implementation.
89e75dbd 205 - The configure script now aborts if the "ar" command or
206 compilers cannot be found.
69d2b731 207 - The static cupsimage library was not built by default.
2abcdcaa 208 - The path for the "ln" command was hardcoded in
209 Makedefs.in instead of being checked at configure time
210 (STR #28).
c4885a3a 211 - Banner pages containing unescaped { characters would
212 not work.
c8a55d2c 213 - The printer-state-time collection attribute was
214 encoded as an enumeration instead of an integer.
215 - The printer-is-accepting-jobs collection attribute was
216 was not added to the collection value.
217 - The printer-state-sequence-number collection attribute
218 was not added to the collection value.
d8e1f369 219 - Fixed typo and const mismatch in IPP backend.
220 - Updated the man pages for the new configuration
221 directives.
222 - Updated the SAM for MacOS 10.2, the CUPS drivers for
223 windows, the available LPD backend options, and the
224 new configuration directives.
de8a4f54 225 - The imagetops filter didn't position images properly
226 on the page (STR #18)
f2cdaedc 227 - The configure script didn't add CPPFLAGS to the
228 compiler options or LDFLAGS to the DSO options (STR
229 #13)
b696f4e3 230 - The scheduler would try to write a debug log message
231 when starting a job that contained a NULL string.
232 Since not all versions of snprintf() support NULL
f2cdaedc 233 string pointers this caused some problems (STR #20)
b696f4e3 234 - The testipp program now supports reading of IPP
235 message files such as those used for the job history
236 in /var/spool/cups.
237
238
fc7f6f69 239CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19rc1
6e3d4276 240
265fb4a4 241 - Added CUPS support files for Java, Perl, and PHP
242 (located in the "scripting" subdirectory...)
53510eae 243 - The scheduler now supports fast-reloads of the
244 cupsd.conf file when it is updated via HTTP.
245 - The scheduler always changed the ownership of log
246 files; it now only does so if they are not in the /dev
247 directory (i.e. don't want to change the ownership and
248 permissions of /dev/null...)
b4f2ed46 249 - Added libpaper support (patch from Jeff Licquia)
4fc54d8c 250 - Added a new istring() rule for MIME types files that
251 does a case-insensitive comparison of strings.
1e6bd2df 252 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now sends jobs to the default
253 queue when an empty queue name (or "lp" and there is
254 no "lp" queue) is sent.
e532393d 255 - The scheduler now supports fax queues identified by a
256 "*cupsFax: True" attribute in the PPD file. When a job
53510eae 257 can't be sent, it is held for 5 minutes by default
258 while other jobs are attempted. The FaxRetryLimit and
259 FaxRetryInterval directives control the number of
260 retries and the time between retries.
0e4f2c25 261 - The scheduler now preserves the default options of PPD
262 files when modifying/upgrading an existing PPD file.
263 When installing a new printer, the scheduler sets the
264 default media size to Letter or A4 as appropriate for
265 your locale.
5073e3f8 266 - The scheduler no longer limits the number of
267 BrowseAddress, BrowsePoll, BrowseRelay, Listen, Port,
268 SSLListen, and SSLPort directives to 10.
d59a189c 269 - The scheduler now supports print files that have been
270 compressed using gzip.
4e43f59e 271 - The scheduler used the stdio functions to read any job
272 ticket information in a PostScript print job. Since
273 some platforms limit the number of stdio files to 256,
274 job ticket information was ignored when the server had
275 a large number of clients connected to the system.
8f4595eb 276 - Filters and backends may now report the total number
277 of pages ("PAGE: total NNN") to the scheduler.
55737cf0 278 - The LPD backend now supports timeout and
279 sanitize_title options (default to 300 and yes,
280 respectively) and has some additional changes to
281 reduce the chances of multiple copies being printed
282 when only one copy was requested.
b5111a23 283 - Fixed a polygon drawing bug in the HP-GL/2 filter.
ded143b8 284 - Added a robots.txt file to the standard install to
285 prevent search engines from indexing the CUPS server.
62bcac22 286 - Added support for STATE: messages
287 (printer-state-reasons), printer-state-history, and
288 printer-state-time to the scheduler.
598aeabc 289 - When using RunAsUser, the scheduler would initially
290 start any previously queued (pending) jobs with
291 RunAsUser disabled - all backends would be running as
292 root.
4d4fb342 293 - If a backend failed for a printer, CUPS would
294 incorrectly requeue the job for printing again.
c3719c59 295 - Added support for IPP collections and files.
3721af07 296 - Added experimental support for generic CGI scripts and
297 programs, Java, Perl, PHP, and Python to the
298 scheduler. See the file "CGI.txt" for more
299 information.
d40085f1 300 - The CUPS API now supports HTTP cookies and the Expect:
301 field.
dd9e85de 302 - The cancel command now correctly supports the "-u
303 user" option to cancel all jobs for the named user.
304 - The Purge-Jobs operation now supports the my-jobs
305 boolean attribute and a new purge-jobs boolean
306 attribute to control whether job history data is
307 purged from the scheduler; the default is false for
308 my-jobs and true for purge-jobs to match the original
309 implementation.
b9e3e9a0 310 - The scheduler would not timeout printers when only
311 using SLP browsing.
a5ba1d82 312 - If the scheduler was unable to execute a filter, it
313 would try to restart the job indefinitely until the
314 filter could be executed.
a9bc43ad 315 - When writing BSD printcap files, the scheduler now
316 includes the rm and rp attributes, allowing the file
317 to be exported to LPD clients. [Patch from Dominic
318 Kubla]
3f2fa036 319 - The scheduler optimization to reference IPP attribute
320 data instead of performing a full copy caused problems
321 when the referenced data was deleted before it was
322 sent. It now only references attributes that change
323 only when the scheduler is restarted. The change also
324 reduced the memory footprint of a printer object to
325 2k.
326 - The scheduler now holds signals while logging messages
327 to avoid potential deadlock issues when handling
328 signals on Solaris 8.
b27fa031 329 - The lpadmin command now allows printer access control
330 by group name as well as user name.
7057d744 331 - "lpoptions -l" got in an infinite loop if no default
332 printer was available.
333 - The scheduler now logs the job-originating-host-name
334 attribute in the page_log file, and uses "-" for any
335 empty fields (patch from Dominik Kubla).
a0db7254 336 - The pdftops filter now scales PDF pages within the
337 printable area of the page.
b43f5fd7 338 - The pstops filter didn't include the page-label and
339 classification boxes when printing EPS or non-
340 conformant PS files.
209d6c49 341 - The imagetops filter didn't always correctly position
342 the image on the page when printing in landscape
343 orientation.
b3291c5a 344 - The ppdEmit() functions now support the
345 RequiresPageRegion attribute when sending InputSlot
346 and ManualFeed commands.
347 - The PPD loading code now supports standard options
348 outside of OpenUI/CloseUI as required by the PPD spec.
43cd52be 349 - The cupstestppd program has been upgraded to provide a
350 concise PASS/FAIL report, additional detailed
351 conformance testing, and support for gzip'd PPD files.
352 - The PPD loading code is now much more strict when
353 loading a PPD file, and tracks more format errors.
5a0aab69 354 - The scheduler ignored child signals when gathering the
355 list of available devices, when it should have been
356 using the default signal handler.
dc249e0d 357 - The cupsEncodeOptions() function could encode an
358 option with a NULL last string.
8b7032be 359 - The socket backend could report the wrong number of
360 backchannel bytes if an error occurred on the link.
33073884 361 - The cups-polld program now only sleeps after getting
362 all printers and classes. This allows for longer
363 intervals without excessive delays before classes show
364 up...
2e32fcdb 365 - Added a new httpWait() function to support waiting for
366 data for a specific number of milliseconds.
367 - httpGets() now times out after 1 second on
368 non-blocking HTTP connections.
bce0c833 369 - The scheduler no longer accepts rangeOfInteger values
370 that are out of order (e.g. 5-1)
371 - The sides attribute was incorrectly sent as a name
372 value; it is a keyword value.
67474245 373 - The IPP backend now detects if the destination queue
374 has gone away and reports an error.
2e32fcdb 375 - The scheduler and HTTP API now allocate their select()
376 sets to support larger numbers of clients on systems
377 that support it.
cc6d5b1e 378 - The scheduler now sets the CFProcessPath environment
379 variable under MacOS X.
380 - The cupsLangDefault() function now uses the
381 CoreFoundation localization API under MacOS X.
f353d925 382 - The httpSeparate() function didn't handle file URIs of
383 the form "file:///path" properly.
b2d75006 384 - The lpadmin command now supports a "protocol" option
385 for specifying the binary communications protocol to
386 use when printing binary PostScript data.
9c4b5e2e 387 - The scheduler did not properly parse the SystemGroup
388 directive, so only the first group would be used.
36992080 389 - Revamped how strings are stored in the scheduler,
390 providing a substantial improvement in memory usage
391 for systems with large numbers of printers.
610e4a98 392 - The PostScript filter now supports binary PostScript
2ddb40fe 393 files and files beginning with the PJL language escape
394 sequence.
49d1718a 395 - The PPD API now provides additional information from
396 the PPD file.
6a35dc4e 397 - The USB backend didn't compile on Solaris Intel.
98c2aef5 398 - The cupstestppd utility now supports the "-q" option
399 (quiet) for use in scripts, etc.
6db7190f 400 - Merged several weight-reducing changes into the CUPS
401 baseline donated by Apple.
dcfcaeac 402 - Added preliminary support for CDSA; patch provided by
403 Apple.
8bd0441f 404 - Implicit classes are now created from identical
405 printer classes on the network.
faa0f7b5 406 - The lp command now supports a "-H restart" option to
407 restart previously printed jobs. This functionality
408 only works if you have enabled the PreserveJobFiles
409 option.
410 - The scheduler now supports URIs in HTTP request lines
411 to conform to the HTTP/1.1 specification.
cb114623 412 - The time-at-xyz attributes were not recognized in
413 banner files if prefixed by a question mark, e.g.
414 "{?time-at-creation}".
a684a3b0 415 - Added support for pre-filtering application/pictwps
416 files on MacOS clients before sending them to a server
417 via IPP.
edd85093 418 - The scheduler now allows file:/dev/null device URIs
419 even if FileDevices is set to No.
7e3ba0af 420 - CUPS uses strerror() for hostname resolution errors,
421 when it should have used hstrerror().
273e40d6 422 - The USB backend no longer tries to guess the serial
423 number of a device from the USB devices file; this
424 means that printers that don't report their serial
425 numbers in the device ID string will not be
426 individually selectable.
d0598693 427 - The pstops filter didn't handle page ranges properly
428 when a page contained an embedded document.
cb114623 429 - Added a translation of the web interface to German.
96eae06b 430 - When printing using the OutputOrder=Reverse option
431 with duplexing, the output order is now truly
432 reversed; the order of sub-pages when printing N-up is
433 the same.
434 - The pstops filter did not always output the extra
435 blank page when printing a document with an odd number
436 of pages with duplexing enabled.
2d850885 437 - The ippAddXYZ functions no longer allow the
438 application to add less than 1 value.
5b28477f 439 - Fixed a URL rewrite bug in the web interface - local
440 access was sometimes redirected away from localhost...
256f3670 441 - The ppdOpen() functions could get in an infinite loop
442 if the PPD file contained a keyword or text that was
443 too large for the buffer.
bcf61448 444 - Added preliminary support for GNU TLS; patch provided
445 by Jeff Licquia.
aea6601a 446 - Now timeout IPP attribute reads after 1 second inside
447 an attribute definition.
de218675 448 - Now timeout connections that have been shutdown (due
449 to errors) after 30 seconds instead of the Timeout
450 setting (300 seconds by default). This provides
451 faster recovery from DoS attacks.
f0ad8cdc 452 - A denial-of-service attack warning message was being
453 written to the log files by the scheduler for every
454 detection. This caused a DoS of its own in some
455 situations. The warning message is now written no more
456 than once per minute.
67fa1315 457 - Fixed the CIE colorspace support code in the image and
458 PS RIPs.
320115a7 459 - The job-quota-period, job-page-limit, and job-k-limit
460 attributes were not flagged as integers, so setting
461 quotas would not work.
6e3d4276 462 - Added an additional response check in the scheduler to
463 more quickly recover from denial-of-service attacks.
464 - The cupstestppd file was incorrectly installed in the
465 /usr/sbin directory instead of /usr/bin.
466 - The EPM list file did not include the cupstestppd
467 program or man page files.
468
469
759f5023 470CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.18
471
e38a7cef 472 - Fixed a bug in the Set-Job-Attributes code in the
473 scheduler that would cause it to crash or continuously
474 write a job control file.
f63a430f 475 - SECURITY FIX: The scheduler now provides a FileDevice
476 directive to control whether new printers can be added
477 using device URIs of the form "file:/filename". The
478 default is to not allow printers with these device
479 URIs.
767ae392 480 - The scheduler did not compute the cost of filters
481 properly, nor did it choose a multi-filter solution
482 with a lower cost than a single filter solution.
00528abb 483 - Now install CUPS PPD file test utility (cupstestppd)
484 to support basic conformance testing of PPD files.
485 - The scheduler now logs an error message when it sees a
486 non-conforming PPD file.
ae65da6c 487 - Upgraded pdftops filter to Xpdf 2.01 with fixes for
488 TrueType fonts.
1060c9b6 489 - Added a MaxClientsPerHost configuration directive to
490 provide limited protection against Denial of Service
491 attacks.
901b295d 492 - SECURITY FIX: Potential underflow/overflow bug in web
493 interface.
494 - SECURITY FIX: Race condition in certificate creation.
495 - SECURITY FIX: Bad URIs in browse packets could be used
496 to exploint the web interface underflow/overflow bug.
901b295d 497 - SECURITY FIX: Some types of Denial of Service attacks
498 were not handled properly, so once the attack was over
499 the scheduler did not close the connections
500 immediately on all platforms.
099f4d77 501 - SECURITY FIXES: Added integer overflow/underflow
502 checks for all image formats.
9c1ee2b9 503 - The pstops filter didn't reset the showpage operator
504 back to its original at the end of a job; this
505 prevented the concatenation of documents (used
506 primarily for CUPS 1.2...)
0e66dba3 507 - The cupsGetPPD() function didn't always set the
508 cupsLastError() value when an error occurred.
daeeb91c 509 - The IPP media, output-bin, and sides attributes took
510 precedence over the corresponding PPD options, which
511 caused inconsistent behavior under MacOS X with some
512 PPD files.
dcc2e394 513 - The cupsaddsmb utility specified the wrong number of
514 arguments to the adddriver command when adding the
515 Win9x PostScript drivers.
dd44d54e 516 - The web interface did not always report the correct
517 error message.
759f5023 518 - The scheduler did not clear the POSIX signal action
519 structure when waiting for the child to send it a
520 SIGUSR1 signal; this could cause the signal handler
521 not to be called properly, preventing the parent
522 process from returning.
523
524
3cc7bca4 525CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.17
526
5c826e17 527 - The "manual_copies" option did not work when the LPD
528 backend had to retry a print job.
3c892427 529 - The image filters did not convert GIF images properly.
2d21c1ef 530 - The RunAsUser option was incompatible with the new
531 daemon-mode code in 1.1.16.
2d5e06dd 532 - Fixed a problem with the Set-Job-Attributes and
533 PostScript job ticket code in the scheduler - the
534 "last" attribute pointer was never updated, which
535 could cause the scheduler to crash when applying job
536 ticket data.
537 - Fixed a problem in the scheduler that caused it to
538 continue processing HTTP requests on a connection
539 after it was shutdown.
3d6f3b2b 540 - The scheduler now allows accounts authenticated via
541 PAM to not have a corresponding UNIX account, but
542 group membership still requires the account name to be
543 listed in the UNIX group file(s)...
673d1710 544 - The scheduler used a fixed-size (16k) buffer for
545 encoding job options for filters; it now dynamically
546 allocates and expands the buffer as needed depending
547 on the options that are sent in a job.
8ee2dc56 548 - The pdftops filter didn't support all of the MacOS
549 characters for MacRoman encoded fonts.
a7cc258b 550 - The cupsEncodeOptions() and cupsParseOptions()
551 functions now conform to the grammer defined by the
552 current draft of the PAPI specification. The main
553 difference is that option=yes and option=no are no
554 longer treated as boolean options.
7914a6a1 555 - The IPP backend didn't honor the encryption settings
556 in /etc/cups/client.conf.
dfac1292 557 - Fixed a potential bug in the HTTP code which was
558 caused by servers sending the status line and
559 newline(s) in separate packets.
13f5eff6 560 - User-defined classification strings are now printed
561 verbatim - previously the classification box would be
562 empty.
78143282 563 - Re-added Spanish to the list of PPD languages that
564 CUPS supports.
e0578e6e 565 - CUPS API library user and temp file updates for
566 Windows.
f33d1239 567 - The image filters did not properly handle grayscale
568 printing of Sun Raster images.
bf9e2a45 569 - The scheduler never reset the NumJobs variable before
570 loading the job list (previously this only happened on
571 a full start, so the problem was never apparent...)
bdbaa675 572 - The HTTP and IPP read/write code didn't handle EINTR
573 (interrupted system call) errors.
574 - When under high load, the scheduler could abort due to
575 the wrong errno value after a select() call. This was
576 caused by the child signal handler.
577 - Added new load tests to the test target to verify that
578 cupsd can handle hundreds of simultaneous jobs without
579 error.
e1e31a38 580 - The Solaris USB backend now supports the new device
581 URI syntax.
7a1c86c5 582 - The ppdOpen*() functions now reset the numeric locale
583 settings while loading a PPD file.
b2fdde8d 584 - Fixed the libtool build rules.
585 - The manpage make rules didn't use $(MAKE) and
586 $(MFLAGS) for the language subdirectories.
d0e4469d 587 - Now set the LC_TIME locale category to get the
588 properly localized time string.
549d1888 589 - Fixed a problem in the scheduler that would cause the
590 web interface problems when adding, modifying, or
591 configuring a printer or class.
98904cd6 592 - The backends now ignore SIGPIPE so that failed job
593 filters will not stop a print queue.
d47f8ebe 594 - The lpstat command did not allow for destination lists
595 ("lpstat -v printer1,printer2")
596 - Fixed parsing of long filter status messages in the
597 scheduler.
598 - Added some startup performance enhancements to the
599 scheduler so that the printer object information is
600 regenerated fewer times and the MIME type database is
601 not filled with lots of empty filters for raw/direct
602 queues.
854d3bb2 603 - The LPD backend now sends the job title as the print
604 filename.
137d4d44 605 - Added support for variable sizes in the EPSON dot
606 matrix printer drivers. This allows for pages as
607 short as 1/2" (1 row of labels) and does not do an
608 automatic form feed.
609 - French translation updates.
e639fb32 610 - The filters did not quote the page label string when
611 embedding it in PostScript output.
3cc7bca4 612 - The serial backend now enumerates serial ports under
613 MacOS X.
614 - The pdftops filter contained font rasterizer code that
615 wasn't being used and that depended on X11. This code
616 has been removed.
617
618
06415a96 619CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.16
620
727e6d14 621 - The cancel and lprm commands now both display an error
622 message and return a non-zero exit status if an
623 attempt is made to cancel a job on a non-existent
624 printer.
625 - The lpoptions command incorrectly complained if a
626 request to delete a non-existent printer was made.
807a1ef5 627 - If the client.conf file defines an alternate server
628 name, the "configure printer" action in the web
629 interface might not work.
7cc9aebd 630 - The lpstat command now supports a "-W" option so that
631 you can display completed jobs as well as
632 not-completed (pending) jobs.
a1ca1702 633 - The lp and lpr commands did not return an error when
634 one or more files in a set of files for printing could
635 not be printed.
3b8ff70f 636 - The lp, lpadmin, and lpstat commands now consistently
637 return with a non-zero exit status when an error
638 occurs.
db628f45 639 - The scheduler would not accept print jobs sent to a
640 stopped remote printer.
da1bfd3d 641 - The texttops filter incorrectly converted the page
642 numbers in the prettyprint header to double-byte
643 characters when printing a non-Unicode text file. This
644 caused an extra space to appear between each digit in
645 the page number.
da312e94 646 - The scheduler did not use a case-insensitive
647 comparison when adding filters for a printer.
be8c3862 648 - Upgraded the pdftops filter to Xpdf 1.01.
801766ac 649 - The scheduler no longer passes the page-border and
650 number-up-layout attributes to filters when printing
651 banner pages.
25037b2b 652 - The LPD backend now uses a 30-second timeout when
653 sending commands and control files, and a 30-second
654 timeout when retrieving responses from an LPD server.
1aef57ed 655 If a timeout occurs, it retries indefinitely. This
25037b2b 656 helps to make LPD printing over VPNs work more
657 reliably.
a9219725 658 - The USB backend now supports device URIs based on the
659 printer serial number and/or model number under Linux.
660 This avoids the "wrong device filename" problem when
661 using more than one USB printer.
c3c5af5e 662 - Now just shutdown the receiving end of a client
663 connection when sending an error that requires the
664 server to disconnect from the client afterwards. This
665 fixes a problem when doing remote administration with
666 encryption enabled.
b05809b0 667 - The scheduler did not send a printer-state-message
668 attribute if the string was empty; it now always sends
669 this attribute. This caused the printer message to be
670 displayed for other printers in the web interface.
04e01993 671 - The LPD backend now supports a "manual_copies" option,
672 e.g.: "lpd://server/queue?manual_copies=no", in order
673 to handle copies for raw jobs to printers that don't
674 implement the LPD protocol properly...
a05e4307 675 - The "mirror" option was not being handled by the
676 PostScript or image filters.
f7696015 677 - Updated the cupsaddsmb command to support the new CUPS
678 driver for Windows NT/2k/XP.
de659667 679 - Filter status lines longer than 1023 characters could
680 cause the scheduler to get into an infinite loop.
aa25b9e1 681 - The scheduler didn't reset the job state to pending
682 when modifying an active printer.
6ed689f8 683 - Now limit the maximum number of recursion steps when
684 searching for a filter for a job, in case a user
685 defines a circular filter rule.
686 - The PostScript filter would embed an invalid
687 requirements comment in some cases.
56e9c951 688 - Added support for embedded job tickets in PostScript
689 files.
5ca43bfd 690 - The PostScript filter now detects EPS files and should
691 better handle printing EPS files.
5ae53c1e 692 - The cancel command now ignores a trailing destination
693 name when cancelling a specific job ID (Solaris
694 compatibility).
879062a9 695 - The scheduler now rejects jobs with copies outside the
da956953 696 range of 1 to MaxCopies, inclusive.
697 - Added new MaxCopies directive to set the maximum
698 number of copies that a user can request.
879062a9 699 - The scheduler didn't block signals while it processed
700 others and when it forked processes.
5ae53c1e 701 - The scheduler checked for new jobs to print when
702 stopping a job. This caused jobs to restart before a
703 shutdown.
098f80c5 704 - Updated the CUPS startup script to better support
705 different timezones and to support the RedHat/Mandrake
706 init script functions, if available.
e426d516 707 - The scheduler did not properly handle backslashes in
708 banner files; it incorrectly assumed that "\c" should
709 always be replaced by "c", instead of only looking for
710 "\{" and replacing it by "{".
90ca6406 711 - The texttops filter didn't handle prettyprint=no.
712 - The text and HP-GL/2 filters didn't check for other
713 common duplex option names like cupsMarkOptions() did.
c56db294 714 - "lpoptions -x printer" no longer clears the "default
715 printer" status of the printer.
3f1897d4 716 - cupsTempFd() now stops trying to create a temporary
717 file after 1000 tries, and aborts on any error other
718 than EEXIST. This should prevent lp/lpr hangs due to
719 a bad or missing temporary directory.
5a3ef28d 720 - The lpadmin command did not send the right URI to the
721 scheduler when setting options on classes. This
722 caused a client-error-bad-request error.
e354b6e3 723 - The CUPS API convenience functions would attempt to
724 connect to the remote server name in a
725 "printer@server" printer name instead of dealing with
726 the default (usually local) server. Aside from
727 causing user confusion, the remote server name might
728 not be resolved properly, causing further problems.
f2320e2d 729 - "lp -q" would cause the "lp" command to segfault, as
730 the program would try to print the option letter that
731 caused the error using the wrong index into the
732 command-line; bugfix from Debian.
f2ffec40 733 - Fixed a minor inconsistancy in the encoding of boolean
734 attributes from printer options in
735 cupsEncodeOptions().
42ede8a2 736 - Added a FilterNice directive which sets the priority
737 of job filter processes that are run by the scheduler.
93704f20 738 - Added Solaris x86 USB printer support.
34f927d3 739 - The USB backend now reports both the ulpt and unlpt
740 devices under *BSD.
78ab59ae 741 - The "lpstat -o" command would truncate the
742 "printer-jobid" string if it was longer than 21
743 characters.
744 - The PJL-based MIME type rules now look in the first
745 1024 bytes instead of just the first 512 bytes to find
746 the language mode.
747 - The image file types are now listed explicitly in the
748 mime.convs file so that additional image file formats
749 do not use the standard CUPS image filters by default.
750 - Updated the Software Programmers Manual to include
751 all of the CUPS API functions.
cefea041 752 - ppdOpen*() no longer sorts choices for an option.
ce691c0f 753 - The web interface now enforces constraints in PPD
754 files when configuring a printer.
3733593d 755 - When stopping a printer, the scheduler didn't set the
756 printer state before stopping the current job.
a56289b6 757 - The cupsaddsmb utility now lists all data files for
758 Win9x and WinMe clients when installing that Windows
759 driver.
997cf8b0 760 - Jobs submitted to a class now bounce immediately to
761 the next available printer rather than waiting until
762 that printer is available.
763 - Filters and backends now also get the CLASS
764 environment variable set when a job is printed to a
765 printer class instead of a normal printer.
766 - Added French translations of the web interface, CUPS
767 Overview, Software Administrators Manual, and Software
768 Users Manual contributed by Marian REYT-LLABRES.
6b7de82f 769 - Added several "hint" messages for common configuration
770 problems that are stored in the error_log file.
771 - httpSeparate() now unquotes %xx characters in the
772 username:password field of a URI.
5fe35f41 773 - When starting the scheduler in daemon mode, the parent
774 process now waits for the child to signal it is ready
775 to accept connections.
776 - Added -F option to cupsd to run cupsd in the
777 foreground but detach from the controlling terminal
778 and current directory.
779 - The scheduler did not reload jobs when receiving a HUP
780 signal; this would cause problems since the pointers
781 into the file type database would no longer be valid
782 for existing jobs.
783 - The scheduler did not save the network interface list
784 update time, thus no caching of the network data was
785 actually provided.
786 - Updated the SuSE PAM configuration file.
9ba7fc54 787 - The LPD backend now supports a "reserve" option and no
788 longer reserves a priviledged port by default.
bdfe4c00 789 - The cupsaddsmb command now continues past printers
790 that do not have a PPD file to export.
19f699df 791 - The lpstat command didn't treat printer names as
792 case-insensitive.
793 - The lpstat command now reports the printer location
794 attribute with "lpstat -l -p".
c5488f2f 795 - Fixed a bug in the vsnprintf() emulation function,
796 which was used on old versions of HP-UX, IRIX, and
797 Solaris.
b91c8a76 798 - The number-up option was incorrectly being used when
799 printing banner pages.
4f759211 800 - Added support for Greek and Slovak PPD files.
aa37e40e 801 - CUPS now supports printer names containing any
802 printable character, e.g. "123-abc", "foo-bar", etc.
d958c5cf 803 - The null filter was not supported in mime.convs due to
804 a bug in the filter validation code.
3a74d6bf 805 - Changes in the default printer and printer attributes
806 were not always reflected in the generated printcap
807 file.
8ce19460 808 - Implicit classes did not inherit the location or
809 description from member printers.
fabb006b 810 - The httpGetHostByName() function did not handle
811 hostnames that started with a number.
1f1822fd 812 - Updated the filters to use the %cupsRotation comment
904eef76 813 instead of %%Orientation to auto-rotate pages, since
814 the use of %%Orientation is inconsistent.
d9e72533 815 - Added the RootCertDuration directive to control how
816 often the root authentication certificate is updated.
375a0ad5 817 - Increased the size of the IPP write buffer to 32k to
818 allow for larger attribute values and to provide more
819 efficient output of large numbers of attributes.
7ed5d5f2 820 - The polling daemon now retries the initial connection
821 to the remote server; this fixes a problem when the
822 remote server is unavailable when the scheduler starts
823 up...
19e7b382 824 - The scheduler didn't validate Digest users against the
825 system group(s), so Digest and BasicDigest
826 authentication didn't work for administration
827 operations.
103abc03 828 - The scheduler now passes the SHLIB_PATH environment
829 variable to child processes (HP-UX shared libraries)
06415a96 830 - The scheduler now maps accesses from the loopback
831 interface to "localhost".
832 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon sent a status code byte in
833 response to queue state commands, but those commands
834 only return textual data.
835
836
7680b71d 837CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.15-1
838
839 - The lpc and lprm sources didn't include the CUPS
840 string function header, which is required on systems
841 that don't have their own snprintf() function.
842 - The French manpage Makefile tried to install the
843 language subdirectories when it (obviously) didn't
844 have to.
845
846
74cfdb8b 847CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.15
848
dab1a4d8 849 - Updated the CUPS license agreement for the new MacOS
850 license exception.
611e4623 851 - The printer-info attribute now defaults to the printer
852 name if no value has been set.
52900e4c 853 - ppdOpen() and friends now add an "Auto" InputSlot
854 option if none is provided to automatically select the
855 correct tray.
ed6078a4 856 - Updated the ppdEmit() and ppdEmitFd() functions to
857 (re)mark the correct PageSize or PageRegion option
858 depending on the selected ManualFeed or InputSlot
859 options.
860 - ppdEmitFd() didn't handle custom page sizes.
861 - Darwin uses <pam/pam_appl.h> instead of
862 <security/pam_appl.h>.
fba7409c 863 - The jobs.cgi web interface now handles all job
864 operations, allowing the administrator to allow "job
865 administrators" or operators to manage jobs (but not
866 queues) on the server.
867 - The cupsDoFileRequest() function now checks if the
868 filename passed into the function is a directory, and
869 returns the IPP_NOT_POSSIBLE error if so.
870 - New SCSI printer backend.
a594463b 871 - Cleaned up handling of locales with trailing character
872 set definitions.
a319615f 873 - Fixed handling of invalid PPD attributes inside
874 OpenUI/CloseUI.
b92c5a4f 875 - Fixed a problem with SSL and the job, printer, and
876 admin CGIs on ports other than 443.
b47f3ce5 877 - The scheduler didn't handle AuthClass properly.
e6fc9c68 878 - Added French translation of man pages.
a8ee4682 879 - Updated the text filter to support the const_cast,
880 dynamic_cast, and static_cast keywords in ISO C++.
def978d5 881 - Now use strlcat() and strlcpy() (or emulation
882 functions) for easier string/buffer protection.
7b40ae49 883 - The auto-generated printcap/printers.conf files now
884 have a small comment header explaining where the file
885 comes from...
6df23e27 886 - The PostScript filter now supports 6, 9, and 16-up
ed6078a4 887 output, as well as new page-border and
6df23e27 888 number-up-layout options.
415199da 889 - The lpoptions command didn't set options properly when
890 using the default printer.
891 - Added ConfigFilePerm and LogFilePerm directives.
892 - Increased maximum size of MIME types to IPP_MAX_NAME
893 to allow for longer printer names.
894 - No longer create remote printers when loading job
895 history data.
896 - The printer-make-and-model attribute wasn't set when
897 the PPD file didn't contain a NickName attribute.
898 - Now handle PPD files with translation strings longer
899 than 80 bytes - they are truncated if they go over...
c47e97cc 900 - The scheduler didn't handle signals until after it
901 loaded the configuration files the first time; this
902 caused problems on some installations that would
903 restart the scheduler as the system booted into run
904 level 3.
905 - Now throttle broadcasts like we do for polling.
0203af93 906 - Fixed a bug in the reading of PPD files using CR's
907 instead of CR LF's or LF's.
151718ce 908 - The scheduler would crash if cupsd.conf contained a
909 BrowseProtocols line with no protocols listed.
b05e8e24 910 - The HTML job operation templates now link back to the
911 destination printer or class.
69d74c4b 912 - The serial backend now detects USB serial devices.
238bae16 913 - The LPD mini-daemon (cups-lpd) now passes the
914 job-originating-host-name attribute to the scheduler
915 (cupsd).
a4e23897 916 - Updated the IPP backend to reconnect after downgrading
917 from IPP/1.1 to 1.0, and when sending requests to HP
918 JetDirect interfaces that don't support HTTP
919 Keep-Alive like they should.
1cf29e95 920 - Now pass NLSPATH and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment
921 variables, if defined, to CGI and job processes.
922 - Removed the pstoraster filter (based on GNU
923 Ghostscript 5.50) and now provide the raster "driver"
924 and patch file necessary to use the current GNU
925 Ghostscript 7.05 release.
926 - Removed unnecessary fonts and updated the Courier and
927 Symbol fonts to the latest versions to better support
928 non-ISOLatin1 text.
929 - The text filter now always embeds the Courier and
930 Symbol fonts to ensure that they contain the full set
931 of glyphs.
576b82ca 932 - The lp and lpr commands now only override the SIGINT
933 handler if it is not being ignored (patch from Robert
934 Ambrose for some interactive software that catches
935 SIGINT and will gracefully cancel the print...)
350807be 936 - The PostScript image filter (imagetops) now supports
937 printing CMYK images using the CMYK colorspace.
938 - The image filters now support CMYK JPEG files, and
939 correctly handles the inverted files from Photoshop
940 (which seems to save RGBW data, not CMYK...)
e3bf38b3 941 - Added a "check" target to the top-level makefile to
942 conform with GNU standards (same as "test").
746265a5 943 - The IPP code didn't always map the POSIX locale "C" to
944 the proper IPP language code.
32f78676 945 - The cupsaddsmb program was updated to use the
946 setdriver command instead of addprinter.
934ef66d 947 - Banner pages were not handled properly for implicit
948 classes.
7200e26c 949 - When tunneling to a remote system using SSH, the
950 printer URIs for local printers on the remote system
951 did not reflect the correct port number.
d7a9de63 952 - The Allow, Deny, BrowseAllow, BrowseDeny, and
953 BrowseAddress directives now support the network
954 interface names "@LOCAL" and "@IF(name)" for access
955 control and browsing based on the current interface
956 addresses instead of fixed names or IP addresses.
2a55786c 957 - The texttops filter did not properly recognize the
958 "nowrap" (wrap=false) option.
83575f2d 959 - The InstallableOptions group name in a PPD file is now
960 translated separately (CUPS_MSG_OPTIONS_INSTALLED) so
961 that UIs can accurately detect the presence of this
962 group.
f4647930 963 - The scheduler no longer keeps job history data for
964 remote printers on the client (just on the server.)
4c2096b8 965 - The parallel and USB backends now retry if the backend
966 detects that the printer is not connected to the
967 system (rather than stopping the queue...)
968 - The network backends now retry if the backend detects
969 that the printer is not connected to the network or is
970 unreachable (rather than stopping the queue...)
c672a858 971 - The cupsGetDests() function no longer lists options
972 and instances for printers that no longer exist.
31e65f97 973 - The scheduler now converts the document language to
974 the correct LANG string.
8c47c4b4 975 - The cupsaddsmb program now supports alternative CUPS
976 and SAMBA server names.
40a0e1d1 977 - The PostScript filter now supports the Orientation
978 comment and rotates the page as needed automatically.
f915b00f 979 - Revamped the makefiles slightly to use automatically
980 generated dependencies.
981 - Build fixes for OS X.
a1028786 982 - The TIFF reading code depended on the newest version
983 of libtiff; now conditionally compile that portion of
984 the loader.
bbc1bfe5 985 - The PPD code now decodes all JCL options in the
986 JCLSetup group, not just those options that start with
987 the prefix "JCL".
267cf96a 988 - The backends now read print data using the read()
989 system call to ensure that the current page is printed
990 while the next page is being processed.
2f7be6ff 991 - The pdftops filter did not support shading type 3
992 (radial fill) for the "sh" operator.
dab1a4d8 993 - The cups-polld program now throttles the local
994 broadcasts of polled printers and classes so that the
995 local system is not overwhelmed with hundreds of
996 printers and classes all at once.
997 - Updated the serial backend to support 230,400 baud for
998 the Linux PPC port.
59168282 999 - The cupsGetJobs() function wouldn't report completed
1000 jobs that did not have a document-format attribute
1001 value.
1c9c423b 1002 - The cupsEncodeOptions() function now maintains a table
1003 of known boolean and numeric options, and encodes all
1004 other options as strings.
f918a565 1005 - Now add a newline before the end-of-page code in the
1006 PostScript filter; this fixes a problem with files
1007 that don't end with a newline.
a28d12c5 1008 - The image filters looked for the "orientation" option
1009 instead of the correctly named "orientation-requested"
1010 option.
74cfdb8b 1011 - The cupsEncodeOptions() function now handles mixed
1012 integers and ranges.
1013 - New translation guide for developers to provide native
1014 language support for CUPS.
1015
1016
ee8b7dd3 1017CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.14
1018
843779ef 1019 - The ippRead() function did not verify that the
ba31b514 1020 attribute name length or string with language value
1021 was not larger than the read buffer.
e2943c5f 1022 - The scheduler set the signal handlers before loading
1023 the configuration files the first time; this prevented
1024 the RunAsUser directive from blocking server reloads.
5fd84fcc 1025 - Added Swedish message catalog.
0e1f4bec 1026 - The parallel backend now recognizes the /dev/printers
1027 device directory under Linux 2.4.x.
ba31b514 1028 - MacOS X fixes.
1029 - The cupsaddsmb utility sent the server name after the
1030 user information when executing the rpcclient program.
1031 This caused problems with some versions of SAMBA
1032 2.2.x.
ee8b7dd3 1033 - The IPP backend did not pass the requesting user name
1034 when checking on the print job status. This prevented
1035 it from waiting for the job to complete when
1036 communicating with some IPP implementations that
1037 require it.
1038
1039
d2503e02 1040CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.13
1041
28a96fe2 1042 - The lpstat command did not report jobs submitted to
1043 regular printer classes.
0f74081c 1044 - The texttops filter didn't use sufficient precision
1045 when positioning text with some values of cpi and lpi.
1046 This could cause the alignment of text to stray.
0ffae44c 1047 - cupsGetDests() didn't merge the options from the
1048 /etc/cups/lpoptions file with ~/.lpoptions - options
1049 in ~/.lpoptions overrode them completely.
1050 - Added support for KOI8-R and KOI8-U character sets,
1051 and added several Russian message catalogs.
bd726d0d 1052 - The scheduler put the wrong timezone offset in the log
1053 files (e.g. +0500 instead of -0500 for EST...)
1054 - The scheduler did not ignore trailing whitespace in
1055 *.convs files.
db911fcb 1056 - The scheduler now forces all processes to exit (kill
1057 -9) when it is stopped. This prevents parallel and
1058 USB devices from running in the background after cupsd
1059 goes away.
7c587866 1060 - The cupsParseOptions() function didn't skip trailing
1061 whitespace after quoted values.
c3026ddc 1062 - More changes to support CUPS on OS/2.
24e80caf 1063 - Added Simplified Chinese message catalog.
9495ba14 1064 - Added PAM support for IRIX.
c6e1ca5d 1065 - The cupsGetPPD() function didn't remove the @server
1066 portion of the printer name, and since it would
1067 connect immediately to the remote server instead of
1068 the local server, the printer would not be found.
8b8cca8e 1069 - Classification and page labels were not rotated to
1070 match the page orientation.
9ae34eb7 1071 - Now set the TCP "no delay" option on network
1072 connections to improve performance/response time.
1073 - Improved the IRIX printing tools support with patches
1074 from Andrea Suatoni.
1075 - Added a new PrintcapGUI directive to specify the GUI
1076 option panel program to use for the IRIX printing
1077 tools support.
1078 - The cupsGetDests() function did not check to see if a
1079 user-defined default printer (set via lpoptions) still
1080 existed.
1081 - The pstops filter no longer assumes that the default
1082 dictionary is writable when doing N-up processing.
bbfcd9c7 1083 - The pstops filter now supports printing N-up with the
1084 page-set option.
873a6f43 1085 - The imagetoraster filter now supports direct printing
1086 of CMYK image data without conversion/correction.
d1c2727f 1087 - The IPP backend now reports printer state/error
1088 conditions when possible (toner low, media empty,
1089 etc.)
bd73c81f 1090 - The lpstat command now supports the (undocumented)
1091 IRIX -l option ("-lprintername") for a compact job
1092 listing for a printer.
1093 - The lpstat command now includes printer date/time
1094 information in the output (always Jan 01 00:00) to
1095 make third-party tools happy.
18843e59 1096 - The text filter now supports non-integer cpi and lpi
1097 values.
dd5f3453 1098 - The Margins field in the CUPS raster header was not
1099 initialized by the pstoraster filter.
9aa1f763 1100 - Added --with-optim="flags" option to configure script.
1101 - Updated the Italian message translations.
1102 - Updated the cups.list file to install the correct
1103 files.
1104 - The pstoraster filter accessed the third element of a
1105 2 element array.
5f46b7d1 1106 - The scheduler did not setup a status pipe for polling
1107 processes, so error messages went to whatever file
1108 descriptor 2 was pointing to when they were started.
5fb5dab7 1109 - The httpMD5Final() function didn't put a colon between
1110 the password and nonce strings.
c5de57af 1111 - The pstops filter did not default to Binary data for
1112 "%%BeginData:".
4a7e6692 1113 - The pstops filter did not stop processing when a line
1114 containing a CTRL-D is seen.
aba2fa7e 1115 - The scheduler no longer replaces the JobSheets values
1116 from the printers.conf and classes.conf files with the
1117 classification level, if set. This way the original
1118 banner settings are preserved when classification
1119 levels are changed or turned off.
8d5eb22e 1120 - The serial backend didn't drain the output queue, nor
1121 did it restore the original settings.
d2503e02 1122 - Updated the default system group under MacOS X.
1123 - If no SystemGroup was defined in cupsd.conf, the
1124 system default group was not used.
1125 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now supports LPD clients that
1126 send multiple control files.
1127 - httpConnectEncrypt() now always uses encryption for
1128 connections on port 443, since port 443 is reserved
1129 for the "https" scheme.
1130 - Group authentication via certificates did not work
1131 from the web interface for accounts other than
1132 "root".
1133 - The serial port backend did not clear the OPOST
1134 option, which could cause problems with some printers.
1135 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon didn't lookup the client IP
1136 address properly.
1137 - The parallel backend now identifies the polled and
1138 interrupt-driven devices under *BSD.
1139 - The scheduler allowed the "always" encryption mode
1140 inside a Location, which is not valid.
1141 - The CUPS startup script now checks for the timezone
1142 information under Linux.
1143 - Now also map the sides attribute to the JCLDuplex
1144 option (if present) in PPD files.
1145 - Updated pdftops to Xpdf 0.93a.
1146 - Added support for MD5 passwords under Slackware.
1147 - Added new AuthType BasicDigest that does Basic
1148 authentication using the MD5 password file managed by
1149 the lppasswd command.
1150 - The banner page attribute substitution code now
1151 retains {name} sequences in banner files when the
1152 named attribute is undefined. Use {?name} to
1153 conditionally substitute an IPP attribute.
1154 - The scheduler now ensures that the ServerRoot
1155 directory and configuration files are owned by and
1156 writable by the User and Group in cupsd.conf.
1157 - The USB backend now lists all USB printer devices
1158 regardless of whether a printer is connected or not.
1159 This allows new USB printers to be connected without
1160 restarting cupsd.
1161 - Added some more minor performance tweeks to the IPP
1162 protocol code to reduce copying and array indexing.
1163 - The cupsaddsmb utility now uses the -c option with
1164 smbclient and rpcclient to avoid the read length limit
1165 for commands on the standard input.
1166 - Added an include file to the CRD handling code in
1167 pstoraster so that it would compile properly on 64-bit
1168 pointer platforms...
1169
1170
1171CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.12
1172
1173 - Added "Polish" to the list of known languages for PPD
1174 files.
1175 - Added missing directory definition to cups-config.
1176 - The CUPS-Move-Job operation did not set the
1177 destination type for the new destination.
1178 - The CUPS-Add-Printer operation did not support the
1179 allow=all or deny=none values to clear the per-user
1180 printer ACLs.
1181 - The SetPrinterAttrs() function did not handle invalid
1182 PPD files that were missing the required NickName
1183 attribute. It now looks for NickName, ModelName, and
1184 then substitutes the string "Bad PPD File" for the
1185 printer-make-and-model attribute.
1186
1187
1188CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.11
1189
1190 - Added support for embedded TrueType fonts in PDF
1191 files.
1192 - Added support for PostScript functions in PDF
1193 files.
1194 - Added new "cupsaddsmb" utility for exporting
1195 CUPS printer drivers to SAMBA/Windows clients.
1196 - Added preliminary support for Darwin/MacOS X.
1197 - The CUPS-Add-Printer operation no longer allows
1198 arbitrary scheme names in device URIs to be used - it
1199 now restricts the available schemes to those found in
1200 the device list (lpinfo -m).
1201 - The ippRead() and ipp_read_file() functions could not
1202 handle more than IPP_MAX_VALUES (100) values in a
1203 1setOf attribute. These functions have been updated
1204 to dynamically allocate more memory as needed, and the
1205 IPP_MAX_VALUES constant now represents the allocation
1206 increment. [this caused some versions of the
1207 GIMP-print drivers to fail since the number of media
1208 options exceeded 100...]
1209 - The scheduler could crash when BrowseShortNames
1210 was set to "No".
1211 - The scheduler did not prevent MaxClients from being
1212 set to 0, which could cause the scheduler to go in an
1213 infinite loop when accepting a request.
1214 - Made some performance optimizations in the ippRead()
1215 functions to make IPP request/response processing
1216 faster.
1217 - The accept/reject/enable/disable command did not
1218 support properly support the "-h" or default
1219 server name.
1220 - The scheduler did not save the quota configuration
1221 when the job-quota-period attribute was set to 0.
1222 - The LPDEST and PRINTER environment variables did not
1223 support printer instances.
1224 - The text filter now handles more types of boldface and
1225 underline formatting.
1226 - The cupsTempFd() function did not fail if the
1227 temporary directory did not exist; this would cause it
1228 to loop indefinitely instead of returning an error
1229 (-1).
1230 - Stopping (disabling) a printer class did not stop jobs
1231 from printing to printers in that class.
1232 - The cupsGetDests() function was sending the
1233 requested-attributes attribute as a name instead of a
1234 keyword; this caused a serious performance problem on
1235 slower systems since more information had to be
1236 transferred from server to client.
1237 - The web interfaces did not always quote < and & in
1238 things like the job title. This had the potential for
1239 browser-based security violations (on the browser's
1240 machine); bug report from SuSE.
1241 - The scheduler now treats unauthenticated usernames as
1242 case-insensitive when doing quota and allow/deny
1243 processing.
1244 - The lp command sent the "request ID is ..." message
1245 to stderr instead of stdout...
1246 - The PostScript filter (pstops) now handles EPS files,
1247 adding a showpage command to the files as needed.
1248 - The configure script checked for the <stdlib.h> header
1249 file before the JPEG libraries; since the JPEG headers
1250 can define HAVE_STDLIB_H, the configure check would
1251 cause the JPEG check to fail on some systems.
1252 - The scheduler now supports localized banner files,
1253 using the subdirectory approach, e.g. the "es"
1254 subdirectory under /usr/share/cups/banners is used for
1255 the Spanish banner files.
1256 - Updated the scheduler so it knows the correct
1257 language abbreviation to use for all supported
1258 PPD LanguageVersion values. The new code also
1259 supports country codes as well, so "English-GB"
1260 maps to the "en_GB" locale.
1261 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon did not support
1262 anonymous printing (no username specified).
1263 While the username is REQUIRED by RFC-1179,
1264 MacOS clients do not send the REQUIRED username
1265 information when printing via LPD.
1266 - Added many warning and informational messages
1267 to cups-lpd where they were missing.
1268 - Added Czech message file contributed by SuSE.
1269 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now returns a non-zero
1270 status if an invalid destination or job ID is
1271 provided.
1272 - The scheduler did not honor the KeepAlive setting in
1273 cupsd.conf.
1274 - Increased the size of the file read/write buffers to
1275 32k.
1276 - *BSD static library creation fixes.
1277 - Use mkstemps() instead of tmpnam() in pdftops whenever
1278 possible.
1279 - Added httpGetHostByName() function as a wrapper around
1280 gethostbyname() - some implementations of this
1281 function do not support IP addresses (e.g. MacOS X.)
1282 - Added casts to all printf's of file lengths, since
1283 there is currently no standard way of formatting long
1284 long values.
1285 - The client filename field was not cleared in all
1286 instances, resulting in old form data being submitted
1287 to CGIs.
1288 - The httpConnect*() functions now try all available
1289 addresses for a host when connecting for the first
1290 time.
1291 - The pstoraster filter would "lose" all drawing
1292 commands when the PageSize was set but the printer
1293 bitmap was not reallocated. This was most noticeable
1294 with the output from StarOffice 6 beta and would
1295 result in a blank page being output...
1296 - The IPP backend was sending a PAGE comment even when
1297 printing the output from a filter (it should only send
1298 page comments when printing files directly...)
1299 - The pdftops filter didn't properly map glyph names of
1300 embedded Asian TrueType fonts.
1301 - Changed the CUPS startup script to look for a program
1302 named "cupsd", not just any program with "cupsd" in
1303 the name (this caused the apcupsd UPS monitoring
1304 daemon to be stopped/restarted...)
1305 - The CUPS-Move-Job operation did not change the
1306 internal destination name for held jobs, so moved (but
1307 held) jobs would still show up as queued on the
1308 original destination.
1309 - The cups-polld program didn't send the
1310 requested-attributes attribute in the
1311 CUPS-Get-Printers and CUPS-Get-Classes requests, which
1312 made it use more CPU and bandwidth than required.
1313 - The scheduler and CUPS API incorrectly added a
1314 job-sheets-default attribute for remote printers. This
1315 caused banner pages to be omitted from client system
1316 prints.
1317
1318
1319CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.10-1
1320
1321 - Minor fixes to the filter, systemv, and template
1322 makefiles to install files properly.
1323
1324
1325CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.10
1326
1327 - Added a driver for DYMO label printers.
1328 - Added new ClassifyOverride directive to allow users
1329 to override the classification of individual jobs.
1330 - Added new BrowseProtocols directive to control which
1331 browse protocols are used (currently CUPS and SLP).
1332 - Added SLPv2 support (thanks to Matt Peterson for
1333 contributing the initial implementation for CUPS.)
1334 - Adding a raw printer on a remote CUPS server now
1335 correctly redirects PPD file requests to the remote
1336 server.
1337 - The serial backend now limits writes to 1/10th
1338 second worth of data to avoid buffer overflows
1339 with some types of flow control.
1340 - The scheduler did not properly process PUT requests,
1341 so configuration files could not be uploaded to the
1342 server.
1343 - The scheduler did not strip trailing whitespace on
1344 lines in the configuration files.
1345 - The httpWrite() function did not transition the PUT
1346 request to the HTTP_STATUS state to get the status
1347 from the server.
1348 - The scheduler did not properly handle trailing null
1349 ("-") filters when testing a driver that sent data
1350 to the file: pseudo-backend.
1351 - The IPP backend now only sends a document-format of
1352 "application/vnd.cups-raw" when printing to another
1353 CUPS server using a local printer driver or interface
1354 script. Previously the job's document format was
1355 used, which was incorrect.
1356 - The lpadmin command didn't use the ppd-name attribute
1357 with the -m option; this prevented the use of the
1358 "raw" model from the command-line.
1359 - The pstoraster filter output draft (1-bit) 6-color
1360 output in the wrong order; this resulted in yellow
1361 being printed instead of black on Stylus Photo
1362 printers.
1363 - The pdftops filter did not have the Japanese and
1364 Chinese text support compiled into it.
1365 - The IPP and AppSocket backends did not clear the
1366 "waiting for print job to complete" status message,
1367 which caused some confusion... :)
1368 - The serial backend now opens the port in "no delay"
1369 mode to avoid DCD detection problems with some OS's.
1370
1371
1372CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.9-1
1373
1374 - The configure script did not substitute the
1375 correct user and group names.
1376 - The configure script did not use the full path
1377 to the install-sh script when it was used.
1378 - The pstoraster filter did not correctly support
1379 DuplexTumble mode for printers that used flip
1380 duplexing.
1381 - The cups.list.in file was missing from the
1382 distribution.
1383 - The New DeskJet series driver did not use the
1384 correct OrderDependency for the Duplex option.
1385 - Use read() instead of fread() to read piped
1386 print files in lpr/lp. This avoids a bug in the
1387 HP-UX 10.20 fread() function.
1388 - Updated the pstoraster filter to use the MIPS_FIXADE
1389 system call under IRIX to fix bus error problems on
1390 R12000 processors (Ghostscript is not 64-bit clean...)
1391 - Some Xerox PPD files (most notably the Phaser 790)
1392 have illegal whitespace in the option keyword in the
1393 OpenUI line. This caused the PageRegion option to not
1394 be recognized properly for the Phaser 790.

1397CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.9
1398
1399 - Revamped the configure script to use a modular
1400 approach for the various tests.
1401 - Added --with-openssl-* options to properly reference
1402 the OpenSSL libraries in DSOs.
1403 - Added --with-cups-user and --with-cups-group
1404 options to specify the default user and group for
1405 CUPS.
1406 - Added AIX shared library support.
1407 - Added AIX device discovery for the serial and
1408 parallel ports.
1409 - Now use install program or script to install
1410 directories, files, and symlinks.
1411 - Updated pstops filter to use strict handling of EPS
1412 files embedded in a PostScript document. The %%EOF
1413 handling in 1.1.8 caused some dvips files not to
1414 print.
1415 - Fixed yet another memory allocation bug in pstoraster
1416 that would cause it to crash. This fix also ensures
1417 that all memory allocations are done on (at least) a
1418 64-bit boundary.
1419 - Fixed Digest authentication - httpGetSubField() didn't
1420 skip the Digest keyword.
1421 - The scheduler did not properly handle Digest
1422 authentication with the new multiple-group support.
1423 - The scheduler did not allow usernames that were
1424 not in the UNIX password file to be used for Digest
1425 authentication from passwd.md5.
1426 - The scheduler could not scan PPD files that only used
1427 a carriage return (i.e. MacOS PPD files); the new code
1428 is also about 40% faster, so servers with thousands of
1429 PPD files should start much faster now.
1430 - The scheduler now stores the PPD file size and
1431 modification times in the ppds.dat file, so it can now
1432 incrementally update the PPD database from the model
1433 directory, resulting in significantly faster startup
1434 times.
1435 - The lpinfo command did not return a non-zero status
1436 code if an error occurred.
1437 - Fixed a bug in the scheduler's UpdateJob() function.
1438 Basically, all jobs shared the same status buffer, and
1439 the "buffer start" pointer could point to 1 byte
1440 before the beginning of the buffer. The new
1441 implementation uses a separate buffer for each job and
1442 eliminates the buffer start bug.
1443 - The IPP backend would send N copies of a document if
1444 the receiving device didn't support the copies
1445 attribute, even if the upstream driver already added
1446 the necessary commands to generate the copies. This
1447 was most noticeable with HP printers where N * N
1448 copies would come out instead of N.
1449 - The PostScript filter (pstops) did not properly handle
1450 duplex printing on inkjet printers that provide this
1451 option. Copies would be put on the front and back
1452 sides of the duplexed page, and the filter did not
1453 output an even number of pages.
1454 - The backends always caught SIGTERM after they
1455 connected to the printer. This prevented raw jobs
1456 from being cancelled early.
1457 - The cupsSetDests() function now removes any printers,
1458 instances, and options that are not defined by the
1459 user or server. This should prevent old system-wide
1460 options from being used in individual user accounts.
1461 - Updated the EPSON printer driver and added PPDs for
1462 the newer EPSON Stylus printers that only support the
1463 "ESC i" graphics command.
1464 - The lpadmin command didn't allow you to add remote
1465 printers to a local class.
1466 - The lpadmin command didn't allow you to set the
1467 options (quotas, etc.) for a class.
1468 - The scheduler did not load or save the
1469 job-sheets-default attribute for classes.
1470 - The scheduler did not automatically recreate remote
1471 printers that were part of a class.
1472 - It was possible for a printer class to list the same
1473 printer more than once.
1474 - The scheduler now makes a backup copy of classes.conf
1475 and printers.conf before writing the new file.
1476 - The lppasswd program incorrectly asked for a new
1477 password when deleting an existing MD5 password
1478 account.
1479 - The scheduler did not match "/printers/name.ppd"
1480 against a location of "/printers/name".
1481 - The client code did not always handle HTTP encryption
1482 upgrades properly.
1483 - The client code now caches the last Digest password so
1484 it can retry using a new resource path or nonce value,
1485 which are included in the MD5 sum sent to the server.
1486 This should eliminate unnecessary password prompts
1487 when using Digest authentication.
1488 - The lppasswd command didn't have a man page.
1489 - Updated the PJL detection rules to allow the universal
1490 escape to occur anywhere in the first 128 bytes of the
1491 file.
1492 - The cups-polld program would poll servers continuously
1493 with no delay if there was an error contacting the
1494 server.
1495 - The IPP backend would send an empty job-name or
1496 requesting-user-name attribute if the corresponding
1497 job attribute was an empty string. While this is
1498 allowed by the IPP specification, some HP JetDirect
1499 implementations return a client-error-bad-request
1500 error if an empty name attribute value is received.
1501 The new code only sends these attributes if they are
1502 not the empty string.
1503 - At least some versions of the HP JetDirect firmware
1504 do not correctly implement IPP. Added additional
1505 checks to the IPP backend to eliminate extra,
1506 unsupported attributes which should normally be
1507 ignored by a compliant IPP device.
1508 - The scheduler did not copy the complete list of
1509 supported file types into the
1510 document-format-supported attribute. This caused
1511 clients to not send the local file type (such as
1512 application/vnd.cups-raw for raw print files) and the
1513 corresponding bad output in some cases.
1514 - The scheduler did not fully copy attributes from a
1515 set-job-attributes request - string attributes were
1516 only referenced, which could cause cupsd to crash
1517 or behave irratically.
1518 - The lp command didn't send the right value for the
1519 job-hold-until attribute when "-H resume" was
1520 specified.
1521 - The IPP backend now returns as soon as a job is
1522 completed or reported as "pending-held".
1523 - Added new ImplicitAnyClasses and HideImplicitMembers
1524 directives to the cupsd.conf file to make implicit
1525 classes more usable/transparent to the user.
1526 - Clients can now (with the appropriate authentication)
1527 retrieve and update the server configuration files
1528 using HTTP GET and PUT requests.
1529 - The web interface didn't allow you to modify the
1530 location or description of the printer.
1531 - The pdftops filter now uses its own temporary file
1532 function to work with PDF files using LZW compression
1533 (which use the uncompress program or gunzip)
1534 - The SystemGroup directive now supports specification of
1535 multiple groups.
1536 - Added new Include directive to cupsd.conf, a la
1537 Apache.
1538 - Added new pseudo-driver/PPD called "raw" that can be
1539 used to create/convert a raw queue. This also allows
1540 raw queues to be created in the web interface.
1541 - The pdftops filter didn't handle image objects that
1542 used JPEG and Flate compression together.
1543 - The pstops filter counted pages wrong when using the
1544 N-up and even/odd printing options. This prevented
1545 the page-ranges option from working properly.
1546 - Added another fix to pstoraster for a bus error
1547 condition caused by a lack of parenthesis in the
1548 Ghostscript code.
1549 - Added new "natural-scaling" option which scales the
1550 natural size of the image (percent of natural image
1551 size instead of percent of page size.)
1552 - The lppasswd program is now setuid to the CUPS user
1553 instead of root.
1554 - The PPD functions did not allow for PPD files that
1555 defined the page sizes and margins before the page
1556 size options.
1557 - The mime.types file now checks for the PJL "LANGUAGE =
1558 Postscript" command for PostScript files.
1559 - The scheduler did not truncate file: output files.
1560 - The PPD file reading code did not handle options with
1561 raw quotes (") in the human-readable names.
1562 - The pdftops filter now remaps the space character when
1563 (bad) PDF files contain a .notdef glyph for the space
1564 character.
1565
1566
1567CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.8
1568
1569 - Updated spec file to generate separate cups-pstoraster
1570 package for pstoraster.
1571 - The spec file wasn't setting LOGDIR in the install.
1572 - The scheduler might restart a stopped printer after
1573 stopping a print job. Thanks to Florent
1574 Guiliani for finding this bug!
1575 - The init script showed run level 0 for the Red Hat
1576 chkconfig program. This is incorrect because Red Hat
1577 doesn't use run level 0 for shutdown scripts.
1578 - The IPP backend did not handle the
1579 client-error-not-found error when checking the status
1580 of the job that was sent. This caused remote queues
1581 to stop on client machines when the server had job
1582 history disabled.
1583 - Added httpConnectEncrypt() function to avoid
1584 performance penalty for setting up encrypted
1585 connections initially.
1586 - Use httpConnectEncrypt() in all client apps and in the
1587 CUPS API to ensure consistent usage of encryption
1588 throughout.
1589 - Jobs weren't queued to remote classes (fix from
1590 Richard Begg.)
1591 - AIX changes from Richard Begg.
1592 - Fixed the pstops fix for GNOME output - no longer use
1593 the page numbers in the %%Page: comment since GNOME
1594 puts a filename instead (!?@!#?!). There is still an
1595 issue with N-up printing since GNOME defines its fonts
1596 in the first page instead of the document setup section
1597 (pages must be independent according to the DSC spec)
1598 People with GNOME printing problems should consult bug
1599 #54489...
1600 - The imagetops filter produced PAGE: messages when
1601 generating PostScript for a non-PostScript printer
1602 (only affects page-label and Classification
1603 options.)
1604 - The updated pdftops filter was looking for an options
1605 file called xpdf.conf instead of pdftops.conf.
1606
1607
1608CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.7
1609
1610 - Configuration script changes, including new
1611 "--with-docdir=/dir" option to relocate CUPS
1612 documentation and web content according to your
1613 favorite version of the FHS.
1614 - Documentation updates for encryption, SLP, etc.
1615 - New Software Test Plan and automated test script to
1616 test CUPS prior to installation.
1617 - All scheduler configuration files are now case
1618 insensitive to match Apache.
8372ad6b 1619 - Added support for Apache ListenBackLog, Require,
1620 Satisfy, <Limit>, <LimitExcept>, and LimitRequestSize
d2503e02 1621 directives.
1622 - Added support for all Apache log levels...
1623 - Added support for "double" HostNameLookups.
1624 - Added new "RunAsUser" directive to support non-root
1625 configurations on the standard (priviledged) ports.
1626 - Added support for non-root invocation of the lpd
1627 backend (does no reserve a priviledged port, which
1628 might not work with some LPD servers...)
1629 - Added new PrintcapFormat directive to control the
1630 output format of the printcap file (BSD or Solaris
1631 formats are supported at present.)
1632 - The CUPS directory service routines now handle
1633 ECONNREFUSED errors gracefully rather than shutting
1634 all browsing off.
1635 - ippErrorString() now returns the recommended error
1636 messages from the IPP/1.1 Model and Semantics
1637 document.
1638 - Fixed a minor IPP compliance issue with responses
1639 to requests without the attributes-charset or
1640 attributes-natural-language attributes.
1641 - Sun fix: need httpFlush() call for chunked IPP
1642 requests in cupsDoFileRequest().
1643 - httpConnect() now looks up "localhost" by name and
1644 by address (127.0.0.1) for users the go to the
1645 trouble of removing the required localhost entry
1646 in /etc/hosts or on their DNS server...
1647 - Added support for Linux 2.4.x devfs parallel port
1648 filenames (/dev/parallel/N).
1649 - cupsDo[File]Request() and cupsGetPPD() no longer
1650 block trying to reconnect to a crashed or inaccessable
1651 server.
1652 - Added new ppdEmitJCL() function to better handle
1653 PJL commands from PPD files.
1654 - A bug in UpdateJob() would cause the scheduler to
1655 consume 100% CPU until another request was submitted.
1656 - The cancel command did not support the "-" option to
1657 cancel all jobs on all printers.
1658 - The cancel and lprm commands did not support cancelling
1659 the next/current job in the queue.
1660 - The pdftops and pstoraster filters were using unsafe
1661 temporary file functions; while this is not a problem
1662 in normal configurations (the CUPS temporary directory
1663 is restricted), they now use the cupsTempFd() function.
1664 - The mime.types file was missing the recognition rule
1665 for Sun Raster images.
1666 - The admin CGI was passing a printer make string to
1667 ippSetCGIVars() that was being replaced in that
1668 function.
1669 - "lpoptions -l" would resave the options...
1670 - The EPSON drivers now send the "end packet mode"
1671 command when printing to USB devices.
1672 - The scheduler initialized certificates before loading
1673 the cupsd.conf file.
1674 - The scheduler used /dev/random to collect random data,
1675 which could block if insufficient entropy information
1676 had been collected by the kernel. Now use
1677 /dev/urandom.
1678 - Fixed a bug in the whitespace skipping code in
1679 httpGetSubField().
1680 - The LPD backend now supports a new "order" option:
1681 "lpd://server/queue?order=control,data" (default) and
1682 "lpd://server/queue?order=data,control".
1683 - The scheduler enforced a 30 second timeout on all
1684 clients regardless of the Timeout directive and if a
1685 CGI was currently running.
1686 - cupsParseOptions() now sets boolean options to
1687 option=true or option=false.
1688 - The "percent complete" calculations in the LPD backend
1689 could overflow on large files, causing the percentage
1690 to wrap to 0 every 40MB or so.
1691 - Fixed a memory reallocation bug in pstoraster that
1692 could cause it to crash.
1693 - The LPD backend now sanitizes the job title to avoid
1694 potential problems on remote LPD servers.
1695 - The lp command did not send the requesting-user-name
1696 attribute when altering a job.
1697 - The pstops filter did not handle PostScript files with
1698 lines longer than 8191 bytes.
1699 - The scheduler no longer uses inet_addr() to convert IP
1700 addresses in dot format (mmm.nnn.ooo.ppp) to the
1701 32-bit format, since it will not work for IPv6
1702 addresses.
1703 - New "Classification" directive to force labeling of
1704 the current classification on each page.
1705 - New "page-label" attribute to add per-page labels
1706 ("For Official Use Only", "Draft", etc.)
1707 - The scheduler now sets the HTTPS environment variable
1708 for CGI programs when a client connects using
1709 encryption.
1710 - Fixed a recursion bug in the scheduler that could
1711 cause cupsd to crash when a printer was removed.
1712 - The LPDEST and PRINTER environment variables didn't
1713 support instances.
1714 - Dropped the "file" backend from the device list that
1715 is reported, since it is only available for *testing*
1716 and should never be used in a production environment.
1717 The file: device can still be used, but it won't show
1718 up in the list of devices from lpinfo or the web
1719 interface.
1720 - Added support for /dev/lpa# parallel ports under *BSD.
1721 - Added META variables to the CGI header template to
1722 prevent caching of the results.
1723 - Fixed an unaligned memory buffer for the pstoraster
1724 clist states; this caused bus errors for some
1725 combinations of printers, drivers, and options.
1726 - Re-added black reduction for colorful colors; this
1727 helps to prevent dark colors from getting desaturated.
1728 (only used when converting RGB to CMYK)
1729 - Added two new directives - MaxJobsPerPrinter and
1730 MaxJobsPerUser - to allow an administrator to set
1731 the maximum number of pending jobs in a queue or
1732 submitted by a user.
1733 - The scheduler no longer stops a printer if it can't
1734 create the status pipe or run the filters or backend.
1735 This will allow heavily loaded servers to service
1736 clients or start print jobs as the load allows.
1737 - Fixed a bug in the Set-Job-Attributes code that could
1738 crash the scheduler (patch from Martin Zielinski)
1739 - cupsSetDests() did not quote option values with
1740 embedded spaces.
1741 - Added support for the Enable-Printer and
1742 Disable-Printer extension operations (same as
1743 CUPS-Accept-Jobs and CUPS-Reject-Jobs.)
1744 - The AppSocket and IPP backends now wait for the print
1745 job to be finished before exiting; this should prevent
1746 the loss of print jobs with older JetDirect firmware
1747 and make consecutive print jobs print faster.
1748 - The BMP loading code did not handle resolution values
1749 of 0. This is a problem with BMP image files produced
1750 by the GIMP.
1751 - The HTTP Upgrade code (upgrade to TLS encryption)
1752 bypassed the authentication checks.
1753 - The HTTP Upgrade code did not send a 426 status code
1754 to the client and end the current request. This caused
1755 a race condition between the client and server for the
1756 upgrade to TLS.
1757 - Fixed a bug in the EOF and Trailer detection code in
1758 the pstops filter.
1759 - The imagetoraster filter did not add the margins to
1760 the custom page size in the raster header.
1761 - The imagetops filter did not adjust the custom page
1762 size to the size of the printed image.
1763 - The imagetops filter did not include DSC comments
1764 which are required by some printers.
1765 - The imagetops filter did not insert newlines in
1766 Base85 encoded output, causing files to contain
1767 lines longer than 255 characters (violation of the
1768 DSC).
1769 - Added support for the DeskJet 900 series duplexer
1770 and CRET color modes in the HP driver.
1771 - Added support for PPD-defined margins in the HP
1772 driver.
1773 - Fixed the debugging output from pstoraster - the
1774 font list was not terminated by a newline.
1775 - Some versions of the HP-UX pam_unix authentication
1776 module apparently do not pass the appdata_ptr argument
1777 to the conversation function, preventing the scheduler
1778 from authenticating users using PAM under HP-UX. A
1779 workaround using a static variable has been added to
1780 address this problem.
1781 - Fixed a bug in the scheduler SortPrinters() function
1782 that could cause printers to disappear or the
1783 scheduler to crash when adding a printer.
1784 - Changed the pstops filter to not do per-page filtering
1785 if the file does not conform to at least version 3.0
1786 of the document structuring conventions. This seems
1787 to "fix" printing with broken apps.
1788 - The image filters did not handle older TIFF files that
1789 lacked the samples-per-pixel and bits-per-pixel tags.
1790 - Added new cupsGetJobs() and cupsFreeJobs() functions
1791 to manage print jobs.
1792 - cupsEncodeOptions() would encode names of 0 length and
1793 cupsAddOption() and cupsParseOptions() would add names
1794 of 0 length.
1795 - The scheduler might block waiting for status messages
1796 after starting a new print job. Thanks to Florent
1797 Guiliani for finding this bug!
1798
1799
1800CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.6-3
1801
1802 - The configure script put the JPEG library before the
1803 TIFF library; this caused problems in some
1804 configurations since the TIFF library also supports
1805 JPEG compression of TIFF images.
1806 - Updated the configure script and makefiles to handle
1807 admin man pages with the "1m" extension (HP-UX, IRIX,
1808 Solaris, Tru64) and in odd directories (IRIX)
1809 - The updated cupsTempFile() function did not return
1810 the filename when called with a filename buffer of
1811 NULL (previously it used a static buffer.)
1812 - FreeBSD uses /dev/unlptN, but NetBSD and OpenBSD use
1813 /dev/ulptN.
1814 - DeletePrinter() didn't remove the printer from any
1815 classes it was a member of.
1816 - DeletePrinterFromClass() didn't preserve the
1817 implicit status of a class.
1818 - DeletePrinterFromClasses() didn't remove printers
1819 from implicit classes.
1820 - StartJob() didn't send the job-sheets, job-priority,
1821 and job-hold-until attributes to remote printers.
1822 - LoadAllJobs() was looking for job-sheets-completed
1823 instead of job-media-sheets-completed. This would
1824 prevent accumulation of page data after a restart
1825 of the scheduler.
1826 - The pstops and imagetops filters now generate copies
1827 using the appropriate method for a Level 1, 2, or 3
1828 printer since some Level 2/3 printers don't support
1829 the /#copies variable anymore.
1830 - The man page for cups-lpd did not mention the "-o"
1831 option.
1832 - The IPP backend didn't handle version-not-supported
1833 errors and revert to IPP/1.0 (previously it only checked
1834 for a bad-request error)
1835 - Caldera fix: lpc now reports unimplemented commands as
1836 unimplemented, not invalid.
1837 - Caldera fix: lpq didn't recognize BSD lpq "-a" option.
1838 - Caldera fix: lpr didn't recognize BSD lpr "-1", "-2",
1839 "-3", "-4", "-q", or "-U" options.
1840 - RedHat fixes: patches to GNU Ghostscript
1841 - SuSE fix: temp file creation patch to GNU Ghostscript
1842 (pstoraster).
1843 - SuSE fix: remove cgi-bin/abort.c and cgi-bin/email.c,
1844 which are not used.
1845 - SuSE fix: missing NULL check in cgi_initialize_post().
1846 - SuSE fix: potential buffer overflows in
1847 cgi_initialize_string().
1848 - SuSE fix: potential buffer overflows in
1849 ippSetCGIVars()
1850 - SuSE fix: more NULL checks in ppdOpen(); also make
1851 sure that all memory is freed on error to avoid memory
1852 leaks.
1853 - SuSE fix: Exit from child if setgid() or setuid()
1854 fails.
1855 - SuSE fix: Added setgroups() calls after setgid() and
1856 setuid() calls.
1857 - SuSE fix: potential buffer overflows in httpEncode64()
1858 calls.
1859 - SuSE fix: potential buffer overflows in httpSeparate()
1860 - SuSE fix: potential buffer overflows in ippWrite() for
1861 bad input.
1862 - SuSE fix: potential nul skip in ppd_decode() for
1863 missing hex digits.
1864
1865
1866CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.6-2
1867
1868 - Added changes to support NetBSD startup scripts.
1869 - Added separate compiler options for pstoraster
1870 (Ghostscript) to avoid compiler-induced errors
1871 from Ghostscript's twisted code.
1872 - The mime.types file contained syntax errors.
1873 - Updated the *BSD USB device filenames to use
1874 the /dev/unlptN files so that the USB device
1875 is not reset prior to printing (causes print
1876 corruption on many printers)
1877 - Added new cupsTempFd() function to avoid serious
1878 security bug in glibc fopen() function. The glibc
1879 fopen() function unlinks a file before creating it,
1880 which opens up possible symlink attacks.
1881 - Now reject 0-length names in add-printer and add-class
1882 requests.
1883 - Fix for pstoraster when ZLIB is not available.
1884 - cupsGetPPD() didn't reconnect when a HTTP connection
1885 was lost.
1886 - SuSE fix: httpConnect() didn't check that the
1887 value from gethostbyname() was a valid IPv4 address.
1888 - SuSE fix: httpConnect() didn't allow file descriptor 0
1889 to be used for a socket.
1890 - SuSE fix: ippRead() didn't confirm that all values in
1891 a set were numeric or string types.
1892 - SuSE fix: lppasswd race condition fixes.
1893 - SuSE fix: directive names could overflow buffer when
1894 reading *.conf files.
1895 - SuSE fix: HEAD requests for PPD files did not use the
1896 same logic as GET requests.
1897 - SuSE fix: possible buffer overflow when adding
1898 /index.html to requested directory name.
1899 - SuSE fix: possible buffer overflow when converting
1900 IPP attributes to string options for filters.
1901 - SuSE fix: creating file: device output with mode 0666
1902 instead of mode 0600.
1903 - SuSE fix: creating job info files with mode 0640
1904 instead of 0600.
1905 - SuSE fix: don't rely on snprintf() for including
1906 system name in log filenames.
1907 - SuSE fix: add bounds checking when copying quoted
1908 and hex strings.
1909
1910
1911CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.6-1
1912
1913 - Added configure check for getting the correct
1914 strftime() format string; %c is not Y2k safe,
1915 and %KC and NULL are not universally supported.
1916
1917
1918CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.6
1919
1920 - Fixed another possible DoS attack in httpGets()
1921 - Added check for "LANGUAGE = PCL" and "LANGUAGE =
1922 POSTSCRIPT" in mime.types.
1923 - Resolution options were not being passed into the
1924 filter programs properly.
1925 - The default compiler options for GCC no longer include
1926 "-g3", which apparently is deprecated in newer
1927 versions of GCC.
1928 - CheckJobs() could cause cupsd to crash if a job is
1929 cancelled in StartJob().
1930 - The printers.conf and classes.conf files are now
1931 written with restricted permissions.
1932 - The round-robin algorithm used by FindAvailablePrinter()
1933 had problems; fixes contributed by Joel Fredrikson.
1934 - If LoadAllJobs() is unable to determine the file type
1935 of a print job, assume "application/vnd.cups-raw".
1936 - The web interface now provides a job_printer_name
1937 value for any corresponding job_printer_uri value.
1938 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now logs the client address
1939 and hostname as well as all commands and errors in the
1940 syslog file.
1941 - The IPP backend now detects the supported file formats
1942 and only specifies the document format if it is
1943 supported. This makes IPP printing to network print
1944 servers and cards more reliable without affecting the
1945 capabilities of CUPS servers.
1946 - The time_at_xyz attributes are now converted to human-
1947 readable dates and times for the web interfaces.
1948 - The HP and EPSON sample drivers now correctly catch
1949 signals and eject the current page when a job is
1950 cancelled.
1951 - Fixed bug in CGI code - did not ignore control
1952 characters (e.g. newlines) in form data. This caused
1953 sporatic web interface problems.
1954 - The file type logging code in the scheduler referenced
1955 the optional document-format attribute; the new code
1956 uses the resolved MIME type instead.
1957 - The client.conf parsing code now removes trailing
1958 whitespace.
1959 - The MaxJobs directive was being treated as a boolean
1960 instead of an integer.
1961 - The scheduler would not timeout remote printers if
1962 BrowseInterval was set to 0.
1963 - The lpadmin command now supports setting of options
1964 and user-level access control.
1965 - Added "-E" option to all printing commands to force
1966 encryption.
1967 - The client code did not consume the response to the
1968 OPTIONS request when switching to secure mode.
1969 - The scheduler did not output a Content-Length field
1970 when responding to an OPTIONS request.
1971 - Added documentation on using cups-lpd with xinetd
1972 to the man page.
1973 - The socket backend now starts retries at 5 seconds and
1974 increases the interval to 30 seconds. This should
1975 provide faster printing when multiple jobs/files are
1976 queued for a printer.
1977 - The filters and backends no longer buffer output to
1978 stderr. This should provide much more accurate status
1979 reporting.
1980
1981
1982CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.5-2
1983
1984 - Fixed configure check for OpenSSL to work with RSA
1985 code.
1986 - Added configure check for <sys/ioctl.h>, and use this
1987 check in backend/serial.c.
1988 - Updated configure script handling of data,
1989 configuration, and state directories to use datadir,
1990 sysconfdir, and localstatedir variables.
1991 - NetBSD uses different serial port filenames than
1992 FreeBSD and OpenBSD.
1993 - The pdftops filter didn't need some X-specific files.
1994 - The scheduler makefile doesn't do a chown anymore when
1995 installing (cupsd did this automatically on startup
1996 anyways)
1997
1998
1999CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.5-1
2000
2001 - There was a typo in the top-level Makefile
2002 - The top-level Makefile did not install an init script
2003 for run level 5.
2004 - The configure script did not add the "crypto" library
2005 when checking for the OpenSSL library.
2006 - The OKIDATA PPD files were missing.
2007 - The config.h.in file defined the wrong version number.
2008 - The serial backend did not define "funky_hex" under *BSD.
2009 - Updated the Visual C++ project files and some of the
2010 CUPS API sources to compile under Windows again.
2011
2012
2013CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.5
2014
2015 - Security updates - new default configuration does
2016 not broadcast printer information and only allows
2017 access from the local system.
2018 - EXPERIMENTAL encryption support - CUPS now optionally
2019 supports TLS/SSL encryption via the OpenSSL library.
2020 - Documentation updates.
2021 - Makefile/configure script updates.
2022 - The RPM spec file didn't work out-of-the-box under
2023 RedHat or Mandrake.
2024 - Minor code cleanup to remove extraneous compiler
2025 warnings.
2026 - cupsTempFile() was using %p for the temporary
2027 filename; this should have been %08x (just 8 digit
2028 hex)
2029 - Deleting a printer with active print jobs would still
2030 crash the server.
2031 - ippWrite() and ipp_write_file() didn't send the
2032 correct value length for name-with-language and
2033 text-with-language attributes.
2034 - Updated IPP code to support copied strings (that
2035 should not be freed); this provides slightly more
2036 efficient IPP server performance.
2037 - Updated PDF filter to Xpdf 0.91.
2038 - httpGets() could go into an infinite loop if a line
2039 longer than the input buffer size was sent by a
2040 client. This could be used in a Denial-of-Service
2041 attack.
2042 - The lpstat and CUPS API functions now request only the
2043 data required when getting the list of printer or
2044 class information. This should improve performance
2045 with large numbers of printers on slower machines.
2046 - The scheduler was always enforcing the FilterLimit,
2047 even if FilterLimit was set to 0.
2048 - Updated the Linux USB backend to support Mandrake's
2049 /dev/usb/usblp# filenames.
2050 - The PRINTER and LPDEST environment variables did not
2051 override the lpoptions default printer.
2052 - The PPD read functions incorrectly included trailing
2053 characters (usually whitespace) after quoted string
2054 attributes.
2055 - The multiple-document-handling attribute handling code
2056 did not check for the correct value for collated
2057 copies (separate-documents-uncollated-copies).
2058 - The EPSON driver did not work with OKIDATA printers in
2059 EPSON emulation mode (needed change-emulation command)
2060 - The HP-GL/2 filter did not scale the plot properly in
2061 scale mode 2.
2062 - Added PPD files for 9-pin and 24-pin OKIDATA printers.
2063 - The httpSeparate() function didn't handle passwords
2064 that started with a number.
2065 - ippDelete() could free the character set string
2066 multiple times in name-with-language and
2067 text-with-language attributes.
2068 - The scheduler would access freed memory right after
2069 freeing it (for debug messages); these parts of the
2070 code have been reordered to avoid this situation
2071 which was causing sporatic errors and crashes.
2072 - The ppdClose() function didn't free all of the strings
2073 in the ppd_file_t structure.
2074 - The LoadAllJobs() function in the scheduler did not
2075 close the spool directory.
2076 - Changed all sprintf's that use string formats to
2077 snprintf's, even if the destination buffer is
2078 larger than the source string(s); this protects
2079 against buffer overflows caused outside of CUPS...
2080 - Changed all strcpy's to strncpy's between local and
2081 global variables, even if the destination buffer is
2082 larger than the source string; this protects
2083 against buffer overflows caused outside of CUPS...
2084 - The CUPS certificate functions didn't use the
2085 CUPS_SERVERROOT environment variable when set.
2086 - The directory services code was copying instead of
2087 comparing the remote printer info, resulting in
2088 unnecessary updates of the printer attributes for
2089 remote printers.
2090 - Added new mime.types rules to allow automatic raw
2091 printing of PCL and ESC/P files; PJL headers are
2092 parsed to differentiate between PostScript and
2093 PCL job files. This should eliminate a lot of
2094 the reports of SAMBA printing problems due to
2095 the missing "-oraw" or "-l" options.
2096 - The mimeLoadType() function didn't handle the
2097 3-argument contains() function.
2098 - The LoadPPDs() function in the scheduler didn't
2099 properly set the alloc_ppds variable or handle a PPD
2100 database containing 0 printers.
2101 - The scheduler FindAvailablePrinter() function didn't
2102 use the same queuing logic as the CheckJobs()
2103 function. This caused classes to stall if a remote
2104 printer was always busy.
2105 - Jobs are now assigned to printers in a class
2106 round-robin style. This should prevent the first
2107 server in the class from bearing the brunt of the
2108 jobs.
2109 - The scheduler's LoadAllJobs() function didn't always
2110 restore remote printers for queued jobs on startup.
2111 - The serial backend didn't support the higher baud
2112 rates with the old termios interface. It now supports
2113 57600 and 115200 baud.
2114 - The serial backend now supports different types of
2115 flow control; previously it ignored the flow=XYZ
2116 option in the device URI.
2117 - The serial backend now supports DTR/DSR flow control,
2118 which is popular on dot-matrix printers (access with
2119 "flow=dtrdsr" in the device URI)
2120 - Added new job-originating-host-name attribute for
2121 jobs. The new attribute provides the hostname or
2122 IP address of the machine that submitted the job.
2123 - The set-job-attributes code no longer allows read-only
2124 job attributes to be changed.
2125 - Expanded the click area for the navigation bar in the
2126 web interface.
2127 - Updated the lp and cancel commands to support all of
2128 the Solaris print options (some are simply ignored
2129 since they do not map)
2130 - Updated the scheduler to limit the number of file
2131 descriptors to the maximum select() set size. This
2132 was causing problems on Solaris systems where the
2133 max FD count was increased beyond 1024.
2134 - The scheduler's LoadDevices() function was getting
2135 interrupted by the SIGCHLD signal handler; now ignore
2136 child signals while loading devices.
2137 - Added quota and allow/deny user support for printers
2138 and classes.
2139 - Removed black/CMY adjustment code from the PS and
2140 image file RIPs; it was interfering with some CUPS
2141 driver dithering code.
2142 - The lpc program stopped listing the queue statuses
2143 after the first active printer.
2144 - The cups-lpd program used an output format that the
2145 Solaris printing system did not understand.
2146 - Updated the lpq program to use the Solaris format
2147 except under Tru64 UNIX.
2148 - Some DEC PPD files incorrectly use "Off" for the null
2149 value in UI constraints. Added "Off" to the list of
2150 accepted null values.
2151 - Changed the *BSD define constants to __*BSD__ in all
2152 of the backends.
2153 - Added support for "lpstat printername", which is an
2154 undocumented feature in Solaris.
2155 - The HP-GL/2 filter now only sets the plot size if it
2156 is set in the plot file.
2157 - The lpmove command wasn't sending the requesting
2158 user name, causing it to always fail.
2159 - Updated the cupsTempFile() code to use GetTempPath()
2160 under Windows.
2161 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon didn't limit the number of
2162 data files accepted, didn't use cupsTempFile(),
2163 didn't handle control file job information in any
2164 order, and didn't free job options after printing
2165 a file.
2166 - The scheduler copy_banner() function did not
2167 explicitly set the owner and permissions of the banner
2168 files, which could prevent the banner pages from
2169 printing on some systems.
2170 - The lpstat program wasn't listing remote classes.
2171 - The scheduler did not verify that the printer-uri
2172 attribute was specified in all requests that required
2173 it.
2174
2175
2176CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1.4
2177
2178 - Makefile and configure script fixes.
2179 - **** Changed the default Printcap setting **** to
2180 /etc/printcap. There are just too many people asking
2181 why application XYZ doesn't see their printers!
2182 - The web admin interface now displays an error if it
2183 can't get the list of printer drivers from cupsd.
2184 - The IPP backend was putting the copies option before
2185 the other job options were set. This caused the IPP
2186 request to contain attribute groups in the wrong
2187 order, which prevented remote printing.
2188 - Added checks in scheduler to free memory used for
2189 IPP requests and language information when closing
2190 a client connection.
2191 - Fixed the duplex option in the HP LaserJet driver. It
2192 should now work with all LaserJet printers (and
2193 compatibles)
2194 - The add-printer web interface didn't initialize the
2195 "old info" data pointer, which caused random crashes
2196 on many OS's.
2197 - Fixed many page sizes defined in the Level 1
2198 compatibility file "gs_statd.ps" to match reality.
2199 - Fixed another bug in the setpagedevice "code" in
2200 Ghostscript. It should now accept all standard
2201 Adobe attributes on all platforms.
2202 - Fixed pstoraster so that it reallocates memory for
2203 color depth changes as well as size/resolution
2204 changes. This removes an ordering constraint on
2205 the color, page size, and resolution options in
2206 PPD files.
2207 - The IPP backend didn't use the job's character set
2208 when the destination printer supported it. This
2209 caused problems when printing text files to other
2210 CUPS servers.
2211 - Updated the logic used to determine when to rebuild
2212 the PPD file database. The scheduler now checks the
2213 dates and the number of PPD files (was just checking
2214 the dates.)
2215 - Updated the ippSetCGIVars() function (used by the
2216 web interfaces) to only filter valid string values.
2217 - The PostScript filter was scaling 2-up pages
2218 incorrectly. This caused the edges of some pages to
2219 be clipped.
2220
2221
2222CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1.3
2223
2224 - Makefile fixes.
2225 - RPM spec file changes.
2226 - Documentation updates.
2227 - Enabled pstoraster debug messages for everything
2228 (only logged when LogLevel set to "debug"...)
2229 - Changed the Input/OutputAttributes fix in
2230 pstoraster so that it works on all platforms.
2231 - The HP-GL/2 filter didn't set the right green
2232 color value in encoded polylines or text.
2233 - Updated the "fitplot" code to handle plot sizes
2234 specified as "PSwidth,length" and "PSlength,width".
2235 - Updated the Linux parallel and USB backends to open
2236 the device files prior to looking in /proc for
2237 autoprobe info. This makes sure that loadable device
2238 driver modules are in fact loaded...
2239 - Added new FilterLimit directive to limit the number
2240 of processing jobs/filters on a system.
2241 - set-job-attributes didn't change the job-state to
2242 held/pending when the job-hold-until attribute was
2243 specified.
2244 - set-job-attributes didn't save the new job attributes.
2245 - Now change the "requesting-user-name" attribute in
2246 requests from remote systems to "remroot" when an
2247 unauthenticated "root" user is sent. This can be
2248 changed using the new RemoteRoot directive in
2249 cupsd.conf.
2250 - The cancel-job, hold-job, release-job, and restart-job
2251 operations didn't log the authenticated username.
2252 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now checks for a
2253 document-format option before forcing raw mode with
2254 filter mode 'l'.
2255 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now supports "-o" options
2256 on the command-line (passed by inetd) to set global
2257 defaults for all print queues.
2258 - The pstops filter assumed that a file with a Trailer
2259 comment would also have an EOF comment.
2260 - Added new cupsSetPasswordCB(), cupsSetServer(),
2261 cupsSetUser(), and ippSetPort() functions to better
2262 support client applications (especially GUIs...)
2263 - The CUPS-add-class and CUPS-add-printer operations
2264 didn't reset the printer-name attribute on remote
2265 print queues that had to be renamed when a local
2266 printer was defined with the same name.
2267 - The lpoptions command now supports a "-r" option to
2268 remove options for a printer or instance.
2269 - The lpadmin and admin.cgi programs no longer allow
2270 class and printer names to begin with a number; this
2271 caused the command-line utilities to become confused.
2272 - The Linux USB backend now looks for both the parallel
2273 and usblp driver names in the device list.
2274 - Added a new FontPath directive to cupsd.conf, and also
2275 a "--with-fontpath" option for the configure script to
2276 specify alternate font paths for pstoraster.
2277 - The CUPS-move-job operation didn't update the
2278 job-printer-uri attribute.
2279 - The scheduler only looked up printers and classes by
2280 name in IPP requests, instead of using the full URI.
2281 This caused problems with KUPS and friends with
2282 remote printers.
2283 - The scheduler now handles better localization of
2284 hostnames (e.g. server is host.foo.com, remote is
2285 host.subfoo.foo.com, localized is not host.subfoo...)
2286 - The scheduler logging functions now use a common
2287 log file checking/rotation function (courtesy of
2288 Crutcher Dunnavant at Red Hat)
2289 - The scheduler could accept more client connections
2290 than it allocated for if more than one Port or Listen
2291 line was present in cupsd.conf.
2292 - Other minor scheduler performance tweeks.
2293 - The lpq and lprm commands didn't support the default
2294 printer set using lpoptions.
2295 - The lpoptions command now supports a "-l" option to
2296 list the printer-specific options and their current
2297 settings.
2298 - The web printer and class lists now show a link to the
2299 default printer or class at the top of the page.
2300 - The text filter now supports pretty printing of shell
2301 and perl scripts as well as C/C++ source files.
2302 - The top and bottom margins were reversed for landscape
2303 text printing.
2304 - The lpq and lprm commands didn't understand printer
2305 instances.
2306 - The scheduler only selected on the first 100 file
2307 descriptors instead of the maximum file descriptor
2308 limit.
2309 - The scheduler client, listener, and mainline functions
2310 now share code to disable and enable monitoring for
2311 new client connections.
2312 - The imagetoraster filter didn't support all of the
2313 required pagedevice parameters.
2314 - The serial backend now checks for 100 serial ports
2315 under Linux.
2316 - The scheduler used sscanf() to pull out the remote
2317 printer location, description, and make/model strings,
2318 but if any of these options was empty then sscanf()
2319 would stop processing.
2320 - Added "debug2" log level to provide a little less
2321 verbose debugging information at the "debug" level.
2322 - The scheduler would crash if you stopped a printer
2323 that was currently printing a job.
2324 - The scheduler incorrectly allowed jobs in the cancelled,
2325 aborted, or completed state to be cancelled.
2326 - The image filters did not load TIFF images properly
2327 for bottom-to-top and right-to-left orientations.
2328 - Added new cupsEncodeOptions() function to encode
2329 CUPS options as IPP job attributes.
2330 - The IPP backend, LPD mini-daemon, client commands,
2331 and CUPS API did not properly encode multiple
2332 option values separated by commas.
2333 - Added new scheduler malloc logging in debug mode
2334 (provides summary of total arena size, allocated,
2335 and free bytes once a minute)
2336 - The EPM-based distributions didn't install the
2337 correct symlinks for a few man pages.
2338 - Fixed a memory leak in the scheduler - wasn't
2339 freeing old filters when deleting or renaming
2340 printers.
2341 - The scheduler now queries the primary IP address
2342 for the name of the server and maps any incoming
2343 requests from that address to the server name.
2344 This fixes web admin mapping problems from
2345 server.domain.com to localhost.
2346 - The web printer modify interface now remembers
2347 the previous device and driver settings (except
2348 for serial ports.)
2349 - The job-k-octets attribute is now stored as part of
2350 the job attributes; this preserves the information
2351 after a job is completed when job file history is
2352 turned off.
2353 - Dropped option sub-group parsing code for the moment,
2354 since many Xerox PPD files abuse this feature in PPD
2355 files and don't follow the hierarchy rules.
2356 - Added new wrapper code around options so that duplex
2357 options for some HP printers don't prevent prints.
2358 - Added support for Digital UNIX/Tru64 UNIX/OSF/1 format
2359 for "lpstat -v" output.
2360 - Now show the URI for remote printers instead of
2361 /dev/null in "lpstat -v" output.
2362 - Creating classes and adding printers to a class with
2363 the lpadmin command didn't work.
2364 - The banner pages and test page should now format
2365 correctly in both portrait and landscape orientations.
2366 - Updated banner page substitution so that { can appear
2367 by itself without quoting.
2368
2369
2370CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1.2
2371
2372 - Makefile/configure fixes
2373 - RPM spec file and EPM list file fixes
2374 - The cupsTempFile() function now uses a different
2375 algorithm for generating temp files and "reserves"
2376 them to avoid possible security exploitation.
2377 - Now use /dev/random (if available) to seed the random
2378 number generator for certificates.
2379 - The /var/spool/cups and /var/spool/cups/tmp directories
2380 were incorrectly owned by root; they are now owned by
2381 the filter user, typically "lp".
2382 - The scheduler now resets the permissions on the spool
2383 and temp directories as needed to match the filter
2384 user.
2385 - Now expose ppdCollect() as an externally callable
2386 function.
2387 - The image filters now support filtering from the
2388 standard input.
2389 - The imagetoraster filter now collects all printer
2390 options and job patch files and applies them to the
2391 page header as needed.
2392 - Added format and banner options to LPD backend.
2393 - The send-document operation didn't start a job
2394 immediately when last-document was true.
2395 - The set-job-attributes operation didn't correctly
2396 replace the current job-hold-until value.
2397 - Removed the option wrapper code from ppdEmit() and
2398 friends since it caused problems with Ghostscript
2399 and many PS printers.
2400 - Was setting TZ environment variable twice for job
2401 filters.
2402 - Added syslog logging in cups-lpd to aide in
2403 debugging problems.
2404 - The HP-UX parallel port backend did not list the
2405 available parallel ports on some systems (printf
2406 calling problem...)
2407 - The lp and lpr commands overrode user options if
2408 -d/-P were specified after -o.
2409 - The scheduler would crash with a */* filter.
2410 - Added support for a "default" filter for unknown file
2411 types. The example provided in the mime.types and
2412 mime.convs file prints unknown files as if "-oraw" was
2413 specified for the job. This functionality is disabled
2414 by default.
2415 - The "compatibility" mode fix for older backends did not
2416 work for smbspool. Added a workaround for it.
2417 - The HP-GL/2 filter didn't perform the right pen scaling
2418 with some files and the "fitplot" option.
2419 - New Software Performance Specification document that
2420 describes the memory, disk, and CPU usage of all the
2421 CUPS software.
2422
2423
2424CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1.1
2425
2426 - The pstoraster Makefile still referenced one of the
2427 old PDF filter files.
2428 - The filter Makefile used INSTALL_DATA instead of
2429 INSTALL_LIB to install the CUPS image library.
2430 - The administration CGI didn't work properly with
2431 network devices.
2432 - The BrowseACL variable was not updated after the
2433 cupsd.conf file was loaded.
2434 - The lpd mini-daemon didn't support printer instances.
2435 - Now use a default umask of 077 for child processes.

2437 processes and the root user, unless TMPDIR or TempDir
2438 is defined otherwise.
2439 - cupsGetPPD() no longer uses easy-to-guess filenames.

2441 operations now save classes.conf file as needed.
2442 - The lppasswd command wouldn't add a user.
2443 - The ppdOpen() function could cause a segfault if a
2444 0-length PPD file was read.
2445 - The image filters were not handling images with
2446 different X and Y resolutions properly.
2447 - The imagetoraster filter defaulted to RGB output
2448 instead of black output like pstoraster.
2449 - The pstops filter didn't handle binary data properly.
2450 - The pstops filter didn't handle copies properly for
2451 PS files lacking DSC comments.
2452 - The pstops filter now appends %%EOF to the end of
2453 documents if they don't have it.
2454 - The cupsGetPPD() function didn't work with remote
2455 printers lacking the @server in the name.
2456 - The configure script didn't work right when only
2457 --prefix was specified.
2458 - The ppdEmit() code now wraps all printer commands so
2459 that buggy PostScript printers will still print a file
2460 after receiving an option that isn't available.
2461 - Fixed the DeskJet margin bug, and disabled 600dpi
2462 color mode until it can be fixed.
2463 - The cupsAddDest() function didn't sort instances
2464 correctly in all cases.
2465 - The time-at-xyz attributes now expand to the date and
2466 time in banner files.
2467
2468
2469CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1
2470
2471 - Documentation updates.
2472 - Configuration script updates.
2473 - Didn't map charset and language value strings to lowercase
2474 and _ to - as required by SLP and IPP.
2475 - ppdLoadXYZ() didn't add the list of available fonts to the
2476 ppd_file_t structure.
2477 - The text filter common code was freeing the PPD file data
2478 before it was used.
2479 - The text filter now embeds missing fonts.
2480 - The CGI interface now maps local access to the server to
2481 the localhost address.
2482 - The HP-GL/2 filter didn't use the specified (or default)
2483 color ranges, resulting in strange colors.
2484 - The HP-GL/2 filter didn't default to no input window, which
2485 caused unnecessary clipping of plots.
2486 - Integrated Xpdf's pdftops filter into CUPS, which is a
2487 lightweight and reliable replacement for Ghostscript's
2488 PDF support.
2489 - Removed all PDF support from Ghostscript.
2490 - Updated HP driver to set top margin; this seems to fix
2491 the offset problem seen on HP DeskJet printers.
2492 - Fixed dependencies on the ZLIB and JPEG libraries in
2493 pstoraster.
2494 - The lpr command wasn't using the lpoptions defined by
2495 the user.
2496 - The lpr command would segfault if the CUPS server was
2497 not running.
2498 - The top-level makefile was not installing the CUPS
2499 initialization script. It now does so if it sees there
2500 is an init.d directory in /sbin, /etc/rc.d, or /etc.
2501 - "lpstat -v all" didn't work.
2502 - pstoraster would crash on some platforms doing the
2503 setpagedevice operator.
2504 - The web administration interface now allows you to set
2505 the default banner pages.
2506 - Images can now be positioned on the page using the new
2507 "position" option.
2508 - The AccessLog, ErrorLog, and PageLog directives now
2509 support "%s" to insert the server name.
2510 - Added a new BrowseShortNames directive to allow for
2511 short remote printer names ("printer" instead of
2512 "printer@server") when possible.
2513 - The scheduler could crash if given an invalid PPD file
2514 with no PageSize attributes.
2515 - Updated the serial, parallel, and usb backends to do
2516 multiple writes and ignore ioctl() errors as needed;
2517 this should fix problems with serial printing on old
2518 serial drivers and with the UltraSPARC parallel port
2519 driver under Solaris 2.7.
2520 - Now propagate LD_LIBRARY_PATH to child processes from
2521 cupsd.
2522 - New DataDir directive for installing in alternate
2523 locations.
2524 - New CUPS_SERVERROOT and CUPS_DATADIR environment
2525 variables to specify installation directories as
2526 needed.
2527 - Queued remote jobs recreate remote printers as needed
2528 when the scheduler is started.
2529 - Deleting a printer also purges all jobs on that
2530 printer.
2531 - Old job and control files that don't belong to a
2532 printer are automatically deleted.
2533 - Wasn't updating time-at-processing and
2534 time-at-completed attributes in job.
2535 - Didn't send required multiple-operation-time-out
2536 attribute in response to a get-printer-attributes
2537 request.
2538 - cups-lpd now supports options set with lpoptions.
2539 - The job-hold-until attribute is now provided with all
2540 jobs. For jobs that are not currently held the value
2541 is "no-hold".
2542 - The scheduler was not sending "unknown" values in IPP
2543 responses.
2544 - The lpoptions command now accumulates options from
2545 previous runs rather than replacing all options for a
2546 printer.
2547 - The IPP backend now switches to IPP/1.0 if a 1.1
2548 request fails.
2549 - The lpadmin and admin.cgi programs now validate new
2550 printer and class names.
2551 - The access_log file now includes the number of IPP bytes
2552 received in a POST request.
2553
2554
2555CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b5
2556
2557 - Documentation updates.
2558 - The pstoraster filter didn't compile without the JPEG library.
2559 - The cupsd server didn't support the HTTP OPTIONS request
2560 method.
2561 - Dropped the "CLOSE" method supported by the cupsd server.
2562 (not defined in HTTP specification)
2563 - Makefile/configure script fixes.
2564 - Missing the job-restart template.
2565 - Added IPP test suite for testing.
2566 - Missing IPP documentation from binary distributions.
2567 - Fixed multiple-document handling code when last-document
2568 not specified.
2569 - Added more checks to IPP requests to prevent bad requests
2570 from getting through.
2571 - Not all of the Ghostscript error output was being sent to
2572 stderr.
2573 - The PostScript filter now added PJL commands to set the
2574 job name and display string, if supported.
2575 - The scheduler would crash if the browse socket could not
2576 be bound. Now disables browsing if port 631 (reserved for
2577 IPP) is being used by a misbehaving daemon.
2578 - The USB backend now looks for the older Linux 2.2.x USB
2579 printer device filenames as well as the newer ones.
2580 - The IPP backend now uses the UTF-8 charset exclusively,
2581 since apparently only CUPS handles more than US-ASCII and
2582 UTF-8...
2583 - Wasn't quoting ( in PostScript banners...
2584 - Send-document requests with no document-format attribute
2585 could cause cupsd to crash.
2586 - Old jobs in the spool directory might cause cupsd to
2587 crash.
2588 - CUPS now supports all of the recommended job-hold-until
2589 keywords as well as name values of the form "HH:MM" and
2590 "HH:MM:SS".
2591 - Added placeholder pointer for TLS encryption to the HTTP
2592 connection structure.
2593 - Fixed the "fast poll" bug reported by DISA - the
2594 status pipe wasn't being closed for multi-file jobs.
2595 - Revamped put_params code in pstoraster to fix bitmap
2596 allocation bug with FrameMaker output.
2597 - Ripped out filename, etc. code from pstoraster as it
2598 is a potential security hole.
2599 - Added support for RIP_CACHE environment variable in the
2600 new pstoraster.
2601 - Fixed USB device filenames for Linux; now support new
2602 pre-2.4 devices (/dev/usb/lp#) and 2.2 devices
2603 (/dev/usblp#)
2604 - Fixed accept-jobs crash with classes.
2605 - Didn't include dot-matrix EPSON drivers in previous
2606 release.
2607
2608
2609CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b4
2610
2611 - Documentation updates.
2612 - Many makefile and configuration script fixes (should
2613 now compile better under *BSD.)
2614 - The MediaPosition attribute was being mishandled by
2615 GhostScript, causing the RIP to fail whenever a paper
2616 tray was selected.
2617 - The scheduler now logs the final line of log information
2618 from a filter, even if it doesn't end with a newline; this
2619 primarily affects GhostScript error output.
2620 - The scheduler was saving implicit classes, so after a few
2621 restarts you'll end up with AnyPrinter, AnyAnyPrinter, etc.
2622 - The JPEG autodetection didn't work with some JPEG files that
2623 came from digital cameras (JPEG but not JFIF); the new
2624 magic types should work with all images that the JPEG library
2625 can handle.
2626 - Fixed a bug in the new contains() MIME type rule that could
2627 cause cupsd to crash.
2628 - Switched to using strtol() in the MIME type code so that you
2629 can use hex, octal, or decimal constants as desired in the
2630 mime.types file.
2631 - Banner files are now treated as templates, allowing any type
2632 of file to be used as a banner.
2633 - Added a 30-second timeout to backend device reports so that a
2634 hung backend will not prevent the scheduler from starting.
2635 - Backends are once again terminated when jobs are stopped; the
2636 CUPS-supplied backends will stay alive until the downstream
2637 filters have had a chance to clear out old page data.
2638 - The charset lookup in the CUPS localization support was wrong
2639 (iso8859-x instead of iso-8859-x)
2640 - Changed the "cpNNNN" code page files to "windows-NNNN" to match
2641 the IANA registrations.
2642 - New PostScript banner pages.
2643 - Added Windows BMP and Alias PIX image file support to the image
2644 filter.
2645 - The PNG reading coded didn't free all of its buffers.
2646 - Added Digest authentication support to the client and server
2647 code.
2648 - Added Solaris options to System V commands.
2649 - Now support the output-bin job template attribute.
2650 - Now log the job-billing attribute in the page_log file, and
2651 keep track of the total number of pages in the
2652 job-media-sheets-completed attribute.
2653 - The penwidth option is now in micrometers to support more
2654 accurate width specification.
2655 - The image filters now support interlaced and transparent PNG
2656 files.
2657 - Didn't handle Keep-Alive for HTTP/1.0 clients.
2658 - The BrowsePoll support didn't handle when BrowseInterval
2659 was set to 0 (now uses 30 seconds if BrowseInterval is 0)
2660 - The DeskJet driver now supports 600 DPI color for printers
2661 that support it.
2662 - New lpinfo and lpmove commands.
2663 - The lpq command now supports the Digital UNIX output format.
2664 - The LPD mini-daemon now supports all required LPD operations.
2665 - Implemented timeouts for multi-file documents.
2666 - New cupsPrintFiles() function in the CUPS API library to
2667 print multiple files using create-job and send-document
2668 requests (1 job ID for multiple files)
2669 - The lp command now sends multiple files as a single job,
2670 matching the behavior of the System V command.
2671 - The "cancel -a" command now purges job history files.
2672
2673
2674CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b3
2675
2676 - Documentation updates.
2677 - The startup script redirected stderr before stdout,
2678 which caused problems with some versions of Bourne
2679 shell and Bash.
2680 - Fixed a bug in the scheduler's PPD language reading
2681 code.
2682 - Fixed a bug in the scheduler's check for the
2683 manufacturer in the PPD.
2684 - The pstoraster filter didn't allow some input and
2685 output attributes to be set.
2686 - Added banner page support.
2687 - Added missing PAM configuration file.
2688 - Configuration script fixes for Linux and *BSD.
2689 - The log file code was using the wrong sign for the
2690 timezone offset.
2691 - The default printcap file is now empty (no printcap
2692 file is generated).
2693 - The scheduler did not start jobs destined for remote
2694 printers when they became available.
2695 - The scheduler now sends jobs to remote printers
2696 immediately. (when sending jobs to a class, the remote
2697 printer is only used when it becomes available)
2698 - The scheduler now supports printing of banner pages
2699 via the job-sheets attribute (banner files go in
2700 /usr/share/cups/banners)
2701 - The cupsd process now forks itself into the background
2702 (override with -f)
2703 - Added several *BSD enhancements.
2704 - Added UNSUPPORTED libtool option to configuration
2705 script to allow the use of libtool. Note that this is
2706 UNSUPPORTED by us, but added by request of the *BSD
2707 folks.
2708 - The parallel, serial, and usb backends now retry the
2709 opening of their ports. This allows multiple print
2710 queues to be associated with a single physical port,
2711 and will allow CUPS to support several types of
2712 parallel port auto-switches in the near future.
2713 - Set-Job-Attributes now supports adding, changing, and
2714 deleting job template attributes, and no longer allows
2715 job-printer-uri to be set (see CUPS-Move-Job)
2716 - Added CUPS-Move-Job operation to support moving of jobs.
2717 - The CGI template functionality now supports multiple
2718 languages (still only have templates for English)
2719 - The CUPS-Get-Printers and CUPS-Get-Classes operations
2720 now support filtering as defined in the IDD.
2721 - The Get-Jobs, CUPS-Get-Printers, and CUPS-Get-Classes
2722 operations no longer limit themselves to 1000 jobs,
2723 printers, or classes (believe it or not, this is
2724 needed for some sites)
2725 - The web interfaces now support language-specific
2726 templates.
2727 - The web admin interface now supports class management.
2728 - The web admin interface now shows a list of
2729 manufacturers before selecting the PPD/driver for a
2730 specific printer.
2731 - The web admin interface now supports configuration of
2732 the default printer options in the PPD file.
2733 - The web interface now uses printer/class
2734 authentication for the test page instead of admin
2735 authentication.
2736 - Updated the RPM spec file for the current release.
2737 - Updated language support for Windows code pages.
2738 - 8-bit character set files can now use multiple fonts
2739 (needed for Arabic, Greek, Hebrew, etc.)
2740 - Added basic right-to-left text support in the text
2741 filter.
2742 - The POSIX locale now uses ISO-8859-1 instead of
2743 US-ASCII.
2744 - Fixed PDF printing problems.
2745 - Fixed PostScript RIP page device dictionary elements
2746 that weren't getting passed in cups_get_params().
2747 - Added a new "contains" rule for the magic file typing.
2748 - The "printable" rule now accepts characters from 128 to 255
2749 (needed for Microsoft character sets)
2750 - Added support for ~/.cupsrc as well as /etc/cups/client.conf
2751 so that the default server can be configured on a per-user
2752 basis without environment variables.
2753 - Added LPD mini-daemon to support incoming LPD jobs.
2754
2755
2756CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b2
2757
2758 - Documentation updates.
2759 - The lp command didn't always load the user-defined
2760 destinations, preventing it from seeing the default
2761 printer.
2762 - Many configure script and makefile fixes.
2763 - The Microsoft code page files were missing from the
2764 distribution.
2765 - Added a workaround for the HP IPP client (which is sending
2766 an invalid printer-uri in requests)
2767 - Fixed the encoding of text-with-language and name-with-language
2768 to match the IPP spec.
2769 - Added support for unknown value tags in the IPP routines
2770 (previously they would be ignored)
2771 - Integrated GNU GhostScript 5.50 into the pstoraster filter.
2772 - Client hostname resolution was broken on little-endian
2773 machines.
2774 - Now look at client.conf file for client's default server
2775 and printer.
2776 - The cupsServer() function did not close the client.conf file
2777 if it contained a ServerName directive.
2778 - Added BrowseAllow, BrowseDeny, BrowseOrder, BrowsePoll, and
2779 BrowseRelay directives.
2780 - BrowseInterval 0 disables advertising of local printers, but
2781 still receives information on remote printers.
2782 - New browse polling daemon (for polling servers on different
2783 networks)
2784 - New PPD cache file for faster startup times with large numbers
2785 of PPD files.
2786 - The Host: field was incorrectly required for HTTP/1.0 clients.
2787 - New set-job-attributes operation now supported.
2788 - The mime_load_types() and mime_load_convs() functions did not

2810 was being used.
2811 - The "lpstat -p" command would stop after the first active
