3fc87a99 | 4 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.20rc1 |
5 | ||
0cd4970e | 6 | - Added backend tweeks and content-length check from Red |
7 | Hat (STR #253) | |
8 | - The USB backend now uses the 8255 constants instead of | |
9 | the standard constants when reporting printer status | |
10 | bits on Linux (STR #254) | |
3ec5b662 | 11 | - Added new cupsDoAuthentication(), cupsGetFd(), |
12 | cupsGetFile(), cupsPutFd(), and cupsPutFile() functions | |
13 | to the CUPS API (STR #112) | |
c50b7b12 | 14 | - The PDF filter always scaled and offset pages; this |
15 | caused problems under MacOS X, so now the "fitplot" | |
16 | option controls whether PDF files are scaled to fit | |
17 | within the printable area of the page (STR #250) | |
18 | - The LPD backend did not support the port number in a | |
19 | URI (STR #247) | |
20 | - Some filters didn't properly support boolean options | |
21 | (STR #249) | |
22 | - Landscape PDF files were not always offset by the | |
23 | correct amount when rotating (STR #243) | |
1a673d32 | 24 | - The scheduler could hang in a call to localtime() when |
25 | logging messages from the signal handler (STR #242) | |
f235af09 | 26 | - The PDF filter no longer prints form widgets; this |
27 | duplicates the behavior of Acrobat Reader (STR #241) | |
28ae836a | 28 | - cupsGetPPD() didn't handle a late termination of a |
29 | HTTP connection with the server (STR #220) | |
60dc191d | 30 | - ppdOpen() did not correctly check for "*PPD-Adobe-4." |
31 | on the first line of a PPD file. This caused incorrect | |
32 | PASS results for some PPD files (STR #233) | |
2268893f | 33 | - cupsEncodeOptions() did not allow boolean options to |
34 | use "yes" and "on" for true values (STR #227) | |
5cacfcee | 35 | - The pstops filter only sent the TBCP exit sequence if |
36 | it was defined in the JCLEnd attribute in the PPD file | |
37 | (STR #224) | |
0a0621ae | 38 | - Support for more than 1024 files was broken on Solaris |
39 | 9 (STR #217) | |
4342fddc | 40 | - The setgroups() calls now pass in 1 group (the |
41 | configured group) instead of 0 for compatibility with | |
42 | BSD and Darwin (STR #213) | |
c2179d0f | 43 | - The scheduler's built-in broadcast throttling was |
44 | ineffective since incoming packets would cause the | |
45 | next group of outgoing packets to be sent immediately | |
46 | rather than waiting for the next time slot (STR #211) | |
49de8bd2 | 47 | - Added a new ppdSetConformance() function to set the |
48 | conformance requirements for PPD files. Currently only | |
49 | two levels are defined, PPD_CONFORM_RELAXED and | |
50 | PPD_CONFORM_STRICT, and the default is the relaxed | |
51 | level (STR #212) | |
b8f3410f | 52 | - The IPP backend did not correctly execute the |
53 | pictwpstops filter on OSX (STR #210) | |
82ba0702 | 54 | - The LPD backend did not set the banner class when the |
55 | "banner=yes" option was specified in the device URI | |
56 | (STR #209) | |
0c676a75 | 57 | - The imagetoraster filter did not support all of the |
58 | page device attributes (STR #208) | |
84dd2ced | 59 | - The pdftops filter incorrectly auto-rotated pages when |
60 | the user already had specified the proper orientation | |
61 | (STR #207) | |
e5734f04 | 62 | - Fixed AIX shared library support (STR #201) |
ff40b65e | 63 | - Added support for live testing with Valgrind (STR |
64 | #193) | |
0372885f | 65 | - The CGI programs now collect the list of needed |
66 | attributes for the class, job, and printer template | |
67 | files (STR #192) | |
0f71c41e | 68 | - The scheduler now passes the first port that is bound |
69 | to the local loopback or "any" addresses to the CGI | |
70 | programs rather than the port that the browser | |
71 | connected to (STR #103) | |
d3d40607 | 72 | - The cupstestppd program now checks for bad |
73 | JobPatchFile attributes and incorrect versions of the | |
74 | Manufacturer attribute for HP printers (STR #155) | |
75 | - The filter makefile incorrectly installed | |
76 | libcupsimage.a in the filter directory (STR #180) | |
77 | - The scheduler did not verify that the job history | |
78 | files define the job-priority and | |
79 | job-originating-user-name attributes (STR #178) | |
a09a157e | 80 | - The pstops filter didn't handle poorly-formed binary |
81 | PostScript files that had CTRL-D's in them (STR #156) | |
5a617005 | 82 | - The ppdOpen*() and cupsLangGet() functions did not |
83 | make a copy of the old locale strings when using the | |
84 | POSIX locale when reading files, which apparently | |
85 | caused problems with some implementations of the | |
86 | standard C library. (STR #159) | |
87 | - The pdftops filter did not work properly with some | |
88 | embedded Type1C fonts (STR #177) | |
0e2e516e | 89 | - Updated the pdftops filter to be based upon Xpdf |
90 | 2.02pl1 (STR #191) | |
daf8f5f0 | 91 | - The scheduler did not reset the group list when |
92 | running CGI and filter processes (STR #185) | |
93 | - The scheduler no longer calls malloc and free from the | |
94 | signal handlers (STR #190) | |
964eb42f | 95 | - The USB backend now uses the manufacturer and model |
96 | strings if the description string is not available | |
97 | (STR #174) | |
fd8e0b1e | 98 | - The ppdOpen functions still supported the |
99 | VariablePaperSize attribute, which was removed in v4.0 | |
100 | of the PPD spec. This caused problems with PPD files | |
101 | that relocated the PageSize option to a non-standard | |
102 | group (STR #158) | |
9fcd7a75 | 103 | - The cups.list file referenced MAN1EXT, MAN3EXT, and |
104 | MAN5EXT, but none of those were actually defined (STR | |
105 | #147) | |
20bde6fb | 106 | - Chunked requests could cause a Denial of Service if |
107 | the connection is terminated before the first byte of | |
108 | chunk data is sent/received (STR #143) | |
2f20a999 | 109 | - Printers with special characters in their names were |
110 | not accessible from the web interface (STR #120) | |
90e1aedc | 111 | - The lpstat command now shows the correct interface |
112 | script or PPD file, if any, for a print queue (STR #89) | |
113 | - The lpstat command now shows the printer-state-message | |
114 | and printer-state-reasons attributes whenever they are | |
115 | not blank (STR #152) | |
33c76e27 | 116 | - The French and German option-conflict.tmpl template |
117 | files did not get installed (STR #148) | |
118 | - The cups.list.in file did not work when compiling | |
119 | without shared libraries (STR #149) | |
120 | - The DSOFLAGS included the LDFLAGS, which causes | |
121 | problems on at least HP-UX (STR #150) | |
f49663d5 | 122 | - The fax printer support did not keep track of the fax |
123 | capability bit (STR #144) | |
124 | - The appleLangDefault() function could leak a small | |
125 | amount of memory (STR #145) | |
2e8cd988 | 126 | - The ppdOpen() functions now mirror all normal |
127 | attributes to the attribute list; previously only | |
128 | certain unassigned attributes would be added (STR | |
af50faa7 | 129 | #139) |
130 | - The ppdEmitJCL() function wrote JCL commands to stdout | |
131 | instead of the passed file pointer (STR #142) | |
33b8a82d | 132 | - The httpGets() function could, in certain states, |
133 | block waiting for data (STR #132) | |
ae90e335 | 134 | - The cupsEmitJCL() function not outputs an empty @PJL |
135 | command after the PJL language escape to work around | |
136 | bugs in certain PJL implementations (STR #131) | |
137 | - The cupsEmit*() functions didn't set the orientation | |
138 | value properly (STR #127) | |
3fc87a99 | 139 | - The cups.spec file didn't list the rc2.d init |
ae90e335 | 140 | directory or the cupstestppd file (STR #134) |
3fc87a99 | 141 | |

144 | ||
a17e6548 | 145 | - The GNU TLS code incorrectly used |
146 | gnutls_check_pending() instead of | |
147 | gnutls_record_check_pending() (STR #128) | |
8c5f90ff | 148 | - The ppdEmit() functions output "PageSize Custom" |
149 | instead of "CustomPageSize True" in the DSC comments. | |
150 | Also, the custom page size code did not use the | |
151 | ParamCustomPageSize attributes (STR #127) | |
ea13a0f9 | 152 | - The cupstestppd command did not list the conflicting |
153 | options (STR #123) | |

155 | whitespace between the fields in the job listing (STR | |
156 | #117) | |
157 | - The German web templates had errors (STR #119) | |
314ee107 | 158 | - The configure script didn't specify the static |
159 | libraries properly when configuring with the | |
160 | --disable-shared option (STR #104) | |
5c47aed9 | 161 | - The cups.list file used file dependencies for package |
162 | formats other than portable, RPM, and Debian (STR #98) | |
163 | - cupsLangGet() didn't use its language cache (STR #97) | |
31d18669 | 164 | - "lpq -P" would segfault instead of showing a usage |
165 | message (STR #94) | |
8dc4af74 | 166 | - Fixed compiler warnings in pdftops filter (STR #96) |

7f797921 | 170 | |
1ed20df6 | 171 | - Jobs with banner pages that were printed to implicit |
172 | classes would get double banner pages for each | |
173 | file/banner in the job (STR #68) | |
8fa5f1c6 | 174 | - The mime.convs file was missing the filter definition |
175 | for Windows BMP (image/x-bitmap) files (STR #85) | |
8fc34542 | 176 | - The scheduler allowed some READ-ONLY job attributes to |
177 | be set, which could cause the scheduler to fail on the | |
178 | next restart (STR #82) | |
dd4497dd | 179 | - The lp and lpr commands did not report when the |
180 | scheduler was not responding; instead, the user would | |
181 | incorrectly see a "no default destination" error (STR | |
182 | #70) | |
92498b68 | 183 | - cupsLangGet() could fail on OSX due to a corrupt |
184 | language preference (STR #78) | |
92e48f04 | 185 | - Added more checks for HTTP request timeouts. |
af57319f | 186 | - The scheduler dropped the first non-alpha character |
187 | after an open brace when doing attribute substitutions | |
188 | in banner pages (STR #77) | |
7f797921 | 189 | - The scheduler child might send SIGUSR1 to the parent |
190 | before the signal handler was installed; this didn't | |
191 | prevent the scheduler from starting but produced an | |
192 | annoying error message (STR #45) | |
193 | ||
194 | ||
2e6bce36 | 195 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19rc4 |
3dea040b | 196 | |
fb766c9e | 197 | - The lp command did not accept "-" for printing from |
198 | the standard input as required by POSIX 1003.1 (STR | |
199 | #59) | |

203 | right paths for job operations (STR #54) | |
2e6bce36 | 204 | - The scheduler would consume all available CPU if |
205 | started with a pending job in the queue (STR #35) | |
3dea040b | 206 | - The polling daemon allocated an extra localization |
207 | buffer but did not free it, causing cups-polld to | |
208 | eventually use all available memory (STR #40) | |
209 | ||
210 | ||
e309e07a | 211 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19rc3 |
212 | ||
b07e0cc2 | 213 | - The scheduler could get in an infinite loop cancelling |
214 | jobs using "cancel -u user dest" (STR #48) | |
215 | - The "cancel -u user" command did nothing (it should | |
216 | cancel all jobs on all printers owned by the named | |
217 | user - STR #48) | |
b01791df | 218 | - The scheduler would write 0-length job control files |
219 | (STR #46) | |
9b2fe6bd | 220 | - Updated the French man pages (translation provided by |
221 | Gilles QUERRET) | |
aa3b74e1 | 222 | - The scheduler would delete all printers from |
223 | printers.conf if a job was active when a HUP signal | |
224 | was handled (STR #47) | |
225 | - The cups-polld program would leak memory if it was | |
226 | unable to send browse packets to the loopback | |
227 | interface (STR #40) | |
bb9df75d | 228 | - The scheduler did not put the |
229 | job-originating-host-name attribute in the job | |
230 | attributes group. | |
231 | - The text filter did not default to wrapping text as | |
232 | defined by the IPP implementation document. | |
335b78e9 | 233 | - Scan backends first, PPDs second (STR #37) |
3d16d701 | 234 | - Updated the Netatalk documentation in the SAM (STR #38 |
235 | and #39) | |
254aa207 | 236 | - The test suite sent text files to a non-PS print queue, |
237 | which requires ESP Ghostscript (provided separately). | |
238 | Now send the JPEG test file (STR #33) | |
239 | - The test suite did not show the estimated disk space | |
240 | requirements (STR #33) | |
241 | - The test suite did not set the MaxLogSize directive to | |
242 | 0 to prevent log file rotation (STR #33) | |
243 | - The test suite still setup the old CUPS Ghostscript | |
244 | symlinks (STR #33) | |
c7985008 | 245 | - The pstops filter did not report the correct number of |
246 | copies for the page_log file when printing collated | |
247 | copies to a printer that doesn't support them in | |
248 | hardware (STR #32) | |
3fa35ec0 | 249 | - cupsLangGet() needs to set the CTYPE locale to "C" |
250 | (POSIX) to avoid erroneous tolower/toupper values (fix | |
251 | suggested by Bjoern Jacke) | |
380b07e9 | 252 | - Fixed a typo in the cups.list.in file. |
e309e07a | 253 | - Updated all of the Western European locales to default |

257 | Bjoern Jacke) | |
e309e07a | 258 | |
259 | ||
b696f4e3 | 260 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19rc2 |
261 | ||
ac098b06 | 262 | - cupsLangGet() now sets the encoding field based on the |
263 | trailing charset in the locale name, and doesn't look | |
264 | for a message catalog in a specific locale.charset | |
265 | directory. This fixes STR #26 and is more in line | |
266 | with the CUPS 1.2 implementation. | |
89e75dbd | 267 | - The configure script now aborts if the "ar" command or |
268 | compilers cannot be found. | |
69d2b731 | 269 | - The static cupsimage library was not built by default. |
2abcdcaa | 270 | - The path for the "ln" command was hardcoded in |
271 | Makedefs.in instead of being checked at configure time | |
272 | (STR #28). | |
c4885a3a | 273 | - Banner pages containing unescaped { characters would |
274 | not work. | |
c8a55d2c | 275 | - The printer-state-time collection attribute was |
276 | encoded as an enumeration instead of an integer. | |
277 | - The printer-is-accepting-jobs collection attribute was | |
278 | was not added to the collection value. | |
279 | - The printer-state-sequence-number collection attribute | |
280 | was not added to the collection value. | |
d8e1f369 | 281 | - Fixed typo and const mismatch in IPP backend. |
282 | - Updated the man pages for the new configuration | |
283 | directives. | |
284 | - Updated the SAM for MacOS 10.2, the CUPS drivers for | |
285 | windows, the available LPD backend options, and the | |
286 | new configuration directives. | |
de8a4f54 | 287 | - The imagetops filter didn't position images properly |
288 | on the page (STR #18) | |
f2cdaedc | 289 | - The configure script didn't add CPPFLAGS to the |
290 | compiler options or LDFLAGS to the DSO options (STR | |
291 | #13) | |
b696f4e3 | 292 | - The scheduler would try to write a debug log message |
293 | when starting a job that contained a NULL string. | |
294 | Since not all versions of snprintf() support NULL | |
f2cdaedc | 295 | string pointers this caused some problems (STR #20) |
b696f4e3 | 296 | - The testipp program now supports reading of IPP |
297 | message files such as those used for the job history | |
298 | in /var/spool/cups. | |
299 | ||
300 | ||
fc7f6f69 | 301 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19rc1 |
6e3d4276 | 302 | |
265fb4a4 | 303 | - Added CUPS support files for Java, Perl, and PHP |
304 | (located in the "scripting" subdirectory...) | |
53510eae | 305 | - The scheduler now supports fast-reloads of the |
306 | cupsd.conf file when it is updated via HTTP. | |
307 | - The scheduler always changed the ownership of log | |
308 | files; it now only does so if they are not in the /dev | |
309 | directory (i.e. don't want to change the ownership and | |
310 | permissions of /dev/null...) | |
b4f2ed46 | 311 | - Added libpaper support (patch from Jeff Licquia) |
4fc54d8c | 312 | - Added a new istring() rule for MIME types files that |
313 | does a case-insensitive comparison of strings. | |
1e6bd2df | 314 | - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now sends jobs to the default |
315 | queue when an empty queue name (or "lp" and there is | |
316 | no "lp" queue) is sent. | |
e532393d | 317 | - The scheduler now supports fax queues identified by a |
318 | "*cupsFax: True" attribute in the PPD file. When a job | |
53510eae | 319 | can't be sent, it is held for 5 minutes by default |
320 | while other jobs are attempted. The FaxRetryLimit and | |
321 | FaxRetryInterval directives control the number of | |
322 | retries and the time between retries. | |
0e4f2c25 | 323 | - The scheduler now preserves the default options of PPD |
324 | files when modifying/upgrading an existing PPD file. | |
325 | When installing a new printer, the scheduler sets the | |
326 | default media size to Letter or A4 as appropriate for | |
327 | your locale. | |
5073e3f8 | 328 | - The scheduler no longer limits the number of |
329 | BrowseAddress, BrowsePoll, BrowseRelay, Listen, Port, | |
330 | SSLListen, and SSLPort directives to 10. | |
d59a189c | 331 | - The scheduler now supports print files that have been |
332 | compressed using gzip. | |
4e43f59e | 333 | - The scheduler used the stdio functions to read any job |
334 | ticket information in a PostScript print job. Since | |
335 | some platforms limit the number of stdio files to 256, | |
336 | job ticket information was ignored when the server had | |
337 | a large number of clients connected to the system. | |
8f4595eb | 338 | - Filters and backends may now report the total number |
339 | of pages ("PAGE: total NNN") to the scheduler. | |
55737cf0 | 340 | - The LPD backend now supports timeout and |
341 | sanitize_title options (default to 300 and yes, | |
342 | respectively) and has some additional changes to | |
343 | reduce the chances of multiple copies being printed | |
344 | when only one copy was requested. | |
b5111a23 | 345 | - Fixed a polygon drawing bug in the HP-GL/2 filter. |
ded143b8 | 346 | - Added a robots.txt file to the standard install to |
347 | prevent search engines from indexing the CUPS server. | |
62bcac22 | 348 | - Added support for STATE: messages |
349 | (printer-state-reasons), printer-state-history, and | |
350 | printer-state-time to the scheduler. | |
598aeabc | 351 | - When using RunAsUser, the scheduler would initially |
352 | start any previously queued (pending) jobs with | |
353 | RunAsUser disabled - all backends would be running as | |
354 | root. | |
4d4fb342 | 355 | - If a backend failed for a printer, CUPS would |
356 | incorrectly requeue the job for printing again. | |
c3719c59 | 357 | - Added support for IPP collections and files. |
3721af07 | 358 | - Added experimental support for generic CGI scripts and |
359 | programs, Java, Perl, PHP, and Python to the | |
360 | scheduler. See the file "CGI.txt" for more | |
361 | information. | |
d40085f1 | 362 | - The CUPS API now supports HTTP cookies and the Expect: |
363 | field. | |
dd9e85de | 364 | - The cancel command now correctly supports the "-u |
365 | user" option to cancel all jobs for the named user. | |
366 | - The Purge-Jobs operation now supports the my-jobs | |
367 | boolean attribute and a new purge-jobs boolean | |
368 | attribute to control whether job history data is | |
369 | purged from the scheduler; the default is false for | |
370 | my-jobs and true for purge-jobs to match the original | |
371 | implementation. | |
b9e3e9a0 | 372 | - The scheduler would not timeout printers when only |
373 | using SLP browsing. | |
a5ba1d82 | 374 | - If the scheduler was unable to execute a filter, it |
375 | would try to restart the job indefinitely until the | |
376 | filter could be executed. | |
a9bc43ad | 377 | - When writing BSD printcap files, the scheduler now |
378 | includes the rm and rp attributes, allowing the file | |
379 | to be exported to LPD clients. [Patch from Dominic | |
380 | Kubla] | |
3f2fa036 | 381 | - The scheduler optimization to reference IPP attribute |
382 | data instead of performing a full copy caused problems | |
383 | when the referenced data was deleted before it was | |
384 | sent. It now only references attributes that change | |
385 | only when the scheduler is restarted. The change also | |
386 | reduced the memory footprint of a printer object to | |
387 | 2k. | |
388 | - The scheduler now holds signals while logging messages | |
389 | to avoid potential deadlock issues when handling | |
390 | signals on Solaris 8. | |
b27fa031 | 391 | - The lpadmin command now allows printer access control |
392 | by group name as well as user name. | |
7057d744 | 393 | - "lpoptions -l" got in an infinite loop if no default |
394 | printer was available. | |
395 | - The scheduler now logs the job-originating-host-name | |
396 | attribute in the page_log file, and uses "-" for any | |
397 | empty fields (patch from Dominik Kubla). | |
a0db7254 | 398 | - The pdftops filter now scales PDF pages within the |
399 | printable area of the page. | |
b43f5fd7 | 400 | - The pstops filter didn't include the page-label and |
401 | classification boxes when printing EPS or non- | |
402 | conformant PS files. | |
209d6c49 | 403 | - The imagetops filter didn't always correctly position |
404 | the image on the page when printing in landscape | |
405 | orientation. | |
b3291c5a | 406 | - The ppdEmit() functions now support the |
407 | RequiresPageRegion attribute when sending InputSlot | |
408 | and ManualFeed commands. | |
409 | - The PPD loading code now supports standard options | |
410 | outside of OpenUI/CloseUI as required by the PPD spec. | |
43cd52be | 411 | - The cupstestppd program has been upgraded to provide a |
412 | concise PASS/FAIL report, additional detailed | |
413 | conformance testing, and support for gzip'd PPD files. | |
414 | - The PPD loading code is now much more strict when | |
415 | loading a PPD file, and tracks more format errors. | |
5a0aab69 | 416 | - The scheduler ignored child signals when gathering the |
417 | list of available devices, when it should have been | |
418 | using the default signal handler. | |
dc249e0d | 419 | - The cupsEncodeOptions() function could encode an |
420 | option with a NULL last string. | |
8b7032be | 421 | - The socket backend could report the wrong number of |
422 | backchannel bytes if an error occurred on the link. | |
33073884 | 423 | - The cups-polld program now only sleeps after getting |
424 | all printers and classes. This allows for longer | |
425 | intervals without excessive delays before classes show | |
426 | up... | |
2e32fcdb | 427 | - Added a new httpWait() function to support waiting for |
428 | data for a specific number of milliseconds. | |
429 | - httpGets() now times out after 1 second on | |
430 | non-blocking HTTP connections. | |
bce0c833 | 431 | - The scheduler no longer accepts rangeOfInteger values |
432 | that are out of order (e.g. 5-1) | |
433 | - The sides attribute was incorrectly sent as a name | |
434 | value; it is a keyword value. | |
67474245 | 435 | - The IPP backend now detects if the destination queue |
436 | has gone away and reports an error. | |
2e32fcdb | 437 | - The scheduler and HTTP API now allocate their select() |
438 | sets to support larger numbers of clients on systems | |
439 | that support it. | |
cc6d5b1e | 440 | - The scheduler now sets the CFProcessPath environment |
441 | variable under MacOS X. | |
442 | - The cupsLangDefault() function now uses the | |
443 | CoreFoundation localization API under MacOS X. | |
f353d925 | 444 | - The httpSeparate() function didn't handle file URIs of |
445 | the form "file:///path" properly. | |
b2d75006 | 446 | - The lpadmin command now supports a "protocol" option |
447 | for specifying the binary communications protocol to | |
448 | use when printing binary PostScript data. | |
9c4b5e2e | 449 | - The scheduler did not properly parse the SystemGroup |
450 | directive, so only the first group would be used. | |
36992080 | 451 | - Revamped how strings are stored in the scheduler, |
452 | providing a substantial improvement in memory usage | |
453 | for systems with large numbers of printers. | |
610e4a98 | 454 | - The PostScript filter now supports binary PostScript |
2ddb40fe | 455 | files and files beginning with the PJL language escape |
456 | sequence. | |
49d1718a | 457 | - The PPD API now provides additional information from |
458 | the PPD file. | |
6a35dc4e | 459 | - The USB backend didn't compile on Solaris Intel. |
98c2aef5 | 460 | - The cupstestppd utility now supports the "-q" option |
461 | (quiet) for use in scripts, etc. | |
6db7190f | 462 | - Merged several weight-reducing changes into the CUPS |
463 | baseline donated by Apple. | |
dcfcaeac | 464 | - Added preliminary support for CDSA; patch provided by |
465 | Apple. | |
8bd0441f | 466 | - Implicit classes are now created from identical |
467 | printer classes on the network. | |
faa0f7b5 | 468 | - The lp command now supports a "-H restart" option to |
469 | restart previously printed jobs. This functionality | |
470 | only works if you have enabled the PreserveJobFiles | |
471 | option. | |
472 | - The scheduler now supports URIs in HTTP request lines | |
473 | to conform to the HTTP/1.1 specification. | |
cb114623 | 474 | - The time-at-xyz attributes were not recognized in |
475 | banner files if prefixed by a question mark, e.g. | |
476 | "{?time-at-creation}". | |
a684a3b0 | 477 | - Added support for pre-filtering application/pictwps |
478 | files on MacOS clients before sending them to a server | |
479 | via IPP. | |
edd85093 | 480 | - The scheduler now allows file:/dev/null device URIs |
481 | even if FileDevices is set to No. | |
7e3ba0af | 482 | - CUPS uses strerror() for hostname resolution errors, |
483 | when it should have used hstrerror(). | |
273e40d6 | 484 | - The USB backend no longer tries to guess the serial |
485 | number of a device from the USB devices file; this | |
486 | means that printers that don't report their serial | |
487 | numbers in the device ID string will not be | |
488 | individually selectable. | |
d0598693 | 489 | - The pstops filter didn't handle page ranges properly |
490 | when a page contained an embedded document. | |
cb114623 | 491 | - Added a translation of the web interface to German. |
96eae06b | 492 | - When printing using the OutputOrder=Reverse option |
493 | with duplexing, the output order is now truly | |
494 | reversed; the order of sub-pages when printing N-up is | |
495 | the same. | |
496 | - The pstops filter did not always output the extra | |
497 | blank page when printing a document with an odd number | |
498 | of pages with duplexing enabled. | |
2d850885 | 499 | - The ippAddXYZ functions no longer allow the |
500 | application to add less than 1 value. | |
5b28477f | 501 | - Fixed a URL rewrite bug in the web interface - local |
502 | access was sometimes redirected away from localhost... | |
256f3670 | 503 | - The ppdOpen() functions could get in an infinite loop |
504 | if the PPD file contained a keyword or text that was | |
505 | too large for the buffer. | |
bcf61448 | 506 | - Added preliminary support for GNU TLS; patch provided |
507 | by Jeff Licquia. | |
aea6601a | 508 | - Now timeout IPP attribute reads after 1 second inside |
509 | an attribute definition. | |
de218675 | 510 | - Now timeout connections that have been shutdown (due |
511 | to errors) after 30 seconds instead of the Timeout | |
512 | setting (300 seconds by default). This provides | |
513 | faster recovery from DoS attacks. | |
f0ad8cdc | 514 | - A denial-of-service attack warning message was being |
515 | written to the log files by the scheduler for every | |
516 | detection. This caused a DoS of its own in some | |
517 | situations. The warning message is now written no more | |
518 | than once per minute. | |
67fa1315 | 519 | - Fixed the CIE colorspace support code in the image and |
520 | PS RIPs. | |
320115a7 | 521 | - The job-quota-period, job-page-limit, and job-k-limit |
522 | attributes were not flagged as integers, so setting | |
523 | quotas would not work. | |
6e3d4276 | 524 | - Added an additional response check in the scheduler to |
525 | more quickly recover from denial-of-service attacks. | |
526 | - The cupstestppd file was incorrectly installed in the | |
527 | /usr/sbin directory instead of /usr/bin. | |
528 | - The EPM list file did not include the cupstestppd | |
529 | program or man page files. | |

759f5023 | 532 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.18 |
533 | ||
e38a7cef | 534 | - Fixed a bug in the Set-Job-Attributes code in the |
535 | scheduler that would cause it to crash or continuously | |
536 | write a job control file. | |
f63a430f | 537 | - SECURITY FIX: The scheduler now provides a FileDevice |
538 | directive to control whether new printers can be added | |
539 | using device URIs of the form "file:/filename". The | |
540 | default is to not allow printers with these device | |
541 | URIs. | |
767ae392 | 542 | - The scheduler did not compute the cost of filters |
543 | properly, nor did it choose a multi-filter solution | |
544 | with a lower cost than a single filter solution. | |
00528abb | 545 | - Now install CUPS PPD file test utility (cupstestppd) |
546 | to support basic conformance testing of PPD files. | |
547 | - The scheduler now logs an error message when it sees a | |
548 | non-conforming PPD file. | |
ae65da6c | 549 | - Upgraded pdftops filter to Xpdf 2.01 with fixes for |
550 | TrueType fonts. | |
1060c9b6 | 551 | - Added a MaxClientsPerHost configuration directive to |
552 | provide limited protection against Denial of Service | |
553 | attacks. | |
901b295d | 554 | - SECURITY FIX: Potential underflow/overflow bug in web |
555 | interface. | |
556 | - SECURITY FIX: Race condition in certificate creation. | |
557 | - SECURITY FIX: Bad URIs in browse packets could be used | |
558 | to exploint the web interface underflow/overflow bug. | |
901b295d | 559 | - SECURITY FIX: Some types of Denial of Service attacks |
560 | were not handled properly, so once the attack was over | |
561 | the scheduler did not close the connections | |
562 | immediately on all platforms. | |
099f4d77 | 563 | - SECURITY FIXES: Added integer overflow/underflow |
564 | checks for all image formats. | |
9c1ee2b9 | 565 | - The pstops filter didn't reset the showpage operator |
566 | back to its original at the end of a job; this | |
567 | prevented the concatenation of documents (used | |
568 | primarily for CUPS 1.2...) | |
0e66dba3 | 569 | - The cupsGetPPD() function didn't always set the |
570 | cupsLastError() value when an error occurred. | |
daeeb91c | 571 | - The IPP media, output-bin, and sides attributes took |
572 | precedence over the corresponding PPD options, which | |
573 | caused inconsistent behavior under MacOS X with some | |
574 | PPD files. | |
dcc2e394 | 575 | - The cupsaddsmb utility specified the wrong number of |
576 | arguments to the adddriver command when adding the | |
577 | Win9x PostScript drivers. | |
dd44d54e | 578 | - The web interface did not always report the correct |
579 | error message. | |
759f5023 | 580 | - The scheduler did not clear the POSIX signal action |
581 | structure when waiting for the child to send it a | |
582 | SIGUSR1 signal; this could cause the signal handler | |
583 | not to be called properly, preventing the parent | |
584 | process from returning. | |
585 | ||
586 | ||
3cc7bca4 | 587 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.17 |
588 | ||
5c826e17 | 589 | - The "manual_copies" option did not work when the LPD |
590 | backend had to retry a print job. | |
3c892427 | 591 | - The image filters did not convert GIF images properly. |
2d21c1ef | 592 | - The RunAsUser option was incompatible with the new |
593 | daemon-mode code in 1.1.16. | |
2d5e06dd | 594 | - Fixed a problem with the Set-Job-Attributes and |
595 | PostScript job ticket code in the scheduler - the | |
596 | "last" attribute pointer was never updated, which | |
597 | could cause the scheduler to crash when applying job | |
598 | ticket data. | |
599 | - Fixed a problem in the scheduler that caused it to | |
600 | continue processing HTTP requests on a connection | |
601 | after it was shutdown. | |
3d6f3b2b | 602 | - The scheduler now allows accounts authenticated via |
603 | PAM to not have a corresponding UNIX account, but | |
604 | group membership still requires the account name to be | |
605 | listed in the UNIX group file(s)... | |
673d1710 | 606 | - The scheduler used a fixed-size (16k) buffer for |
607 | encoding job options for filters; it now dynamically | |
608 | allocates and expands the buffer as needed depending | |
609 | on the options that are sent in a job. | |
8ee2dc56 | 610 | - The pdftops filter didn't support all of the MacOS |
611 | characters for MacRoman encoded fonts. | |
a7cc258b | 612 | - The cupsEncodeOptions() and cupsParseOptions() |
613 | functions now conform to the grammer defined by the | |
614 | current draft of the PAPI specification. The main | |
615 | difference is that option=yes and option=no are no | |
616 | longer treated as boolean options. | |
7914a6a1 | 617 | - The IPP backend didn't honor the encryption settings |
618 | in /etc/cups/client.conf. | |
dfac1292 | 619 | - Fixed a potential bug in the HTTP code which was |
620 | caused by servers sending the status line and | |
621 | newline(s) in separate packets. | |
13f5eff6 | 622 | - User-defined classification strings are now printed |
623 | verbatim - previously the classification box would be | |
624 | empty. | |
78143282 | 625 | - Re-added Spanish to the list of PPD languages that |
626 | CUPS supports. | |
e0578e6e | 627 | - CUPS API library user and temp file updates for |
628 | Windows. | |
f33d1239 | 629 | - The image filters did not properly handle grayscale |
630 | printing of Sun Raster images. | |
bf9e2a45 | 631 | - The scheduler never reset the NumJobs variable before |
632 | loading the job list (previously this only happened on | |
633 | a full start, so the problem was never apparent...) | |
bdbaa675 | 634 | - The HTTP and IPP read/write code didn't handle EINTR |
635 | (interrupted system call) errors. | |
636 | - When under high load, the scheduler could abort due to | |
637 | the wrong errno value after a select() call. This was | |
638 | caused by the child signal handler. | |
639 | - Added new load tests to the test target to verify that | |
640 | cupsd can handle hundreds of simultaneous jobs without | |
641 | error. | |
e1e31a38 | 642 | - The Solaris USB backend now supports the new device |
643 | URI syntax. | |
7a1c86c5 | 644 | - The ppdOpen*() functions now reset the numeric locale |
645 | settings while loading a PPD file. | |
b2fdde8d | 646 | - Fixed the libtool build rules. |
647 | - The manpage make rules didn't use $(MAKE) and | |
648 | $(MFLAGS) for the language subdirectories. | |
d0e4469d | 649 | - Now set the LC_TIME locale category to get the |
650 | properly localized time string. | |
549d1888 | 651 | - Fixed a problem in the scheduler that would cause the |
652 | web interface problems when adding, modifying, or | |
653 | configuring a printer or class. | |
98904cd6 | 654 | - The backends now ignore SIGPIPE so that failed job |
655 | filters will not stop a print queue. | |
d47f8ebe | 656 | - The lpstat command did not allow for destination lists |
657 | ("lpstat -v printer1,printer2") | |
658 | - Fixed parsing of long filter status messages in the | |
659 | scheduler. | |
660 | - Added some startup performance enhancements to the | |
661 | scheduler so that the printer object information is | |
662 | regenerated fewer times and the MIME type database is | |
663 | not filled with lots of empty filters for raw/direct | |
664 | queues. | |
854d3bb2 | 665 | - The LPD backend now sends the job title as the print |
666 | filename. | |
137d4d44 | 667 | - Added support for variable sizes in the EPSON dot |
668 | matrix printer drivers. This allows for pages as | |
669 | short as 1/2" (1 row of labels) and does not do an | |
670 | automatic form feed. | |
671 | - French translation updates. | |
e639fb32 | 672 | - The filters did not quote the page label string when |
673 | embedding it in PostScript output. | |
3cc7bca4 | 674 | - The serial backend now enumerates serial ports under |
675 | MacOS X. | |
676 | - The pdftops filter contained font rasterizer code that | |
677 | wasn't being used and that depended on X11. This code | |
678 | has been removed. | |
679 | ||
680 | ||
06415a96 | 681 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.16 |
682 | ||
727e6d14 | 683 | - The cancel and lprm commands now both display an error |
684 | message and return a non-zero exit status if an | |
685 | attempt is made to cancel a job on a non-existent | |
686 | printer. | |
687 | - The lpoptions command incorrectly complained if a | |
688 | request to delete a non-existent printer was made. | |
807a1ef5 | 689 | - If the client.conf file defines an alternate server |
690 | name, the "configure printer" action in the web | |
691 | interface might not work. | |
7cc9aebd | 692 | - The lpstat command now supports a "-W" option so that |
693 | you can display completed jobs as well as | |
694 | not-completed (pending) jobs. | |
a1ca1702 | 695 | - The lp and lpr commands did not return an error when |
696 | one or more files in a set of files for printing could | |
697 | not be printed. | |
3b8ff70f | 698 | - The lp, lpadmin, and lpstat commands now consistently |
699 | return with a non-zero exit status when an error | |
700 | occurs. | |
db628f45 | 701 | - The scheduler would not accept print jobs sent to a |
702 | stopped remote printer. | |
da1bfd3d | 703 | - The texttops filter incorrectly converted the page |
704 | numbers in the prettyprint header to double-byte | |
705 | characters when printing a non-Unicode text file. This | |
706 | caused an extra space to appear between each digit in | |
707 | the page number. | |
da312e94 | 708 | - The scheduler did not use a case-insensitive |
709 | comparison when adding filters for a printer. | |
be8c3862 | 710 | - Upgraded the pdftops filter to Xpdf 1.01. |
801766ac | 711 | - The scheduler no longer passes the page-border and |
712 | number-up-layout attributes to filters when printing | |
713 | banner pages. | |
25037b2b | 714 | - The LPD backend now uses a 30-second timeout when |
715 | sending commands and control files, and a 30-second | |
716 | timeout when retrieving responses from an LPD server. | |
1aef57ed | 717 | If a timeout occurs, it retries indefinitely. This |
25037b2b | 718 | helps to make LPD printing over VPNs work more |
719 | reliably. | |
a9219725 | 720 | - The USB backend now supports device URIs based on the |
721 | printer serial number and/or model number under Linux. | |
722 | This avoids the "wrong device filename" problem when | |
723 | using more than one USB printer. | |
c3c5af5e | 724 | - Now just shutdown the receiving end of a client |
725 | connection when sending an error that requires the | |
726 | server to disconnect from the client afterwards. This | |
727 | fixes a problem when doing remote administration with | |
728 | encryption enabled. | |
b05809b0 | 729 | - The scheduler did not send a printer-state-message |
730 | attribute if the string was empty; it now always sends | |
731 | this attribute. This caused the printer message to be | |
732 | displayed for other printers in the web interface. | |
04e01993 | 733 | - The LPD backend now supports a "manual_copies" option, |
734 | e.g.: "lpd://server/queue?manual_copies=no", in order | |
735 | to handle copies for raw jobs to printers that don't | |
736 | implement the LPD protocol properly... | |
a05e4307 | 737 | - The "mirror" option was not being handled by the |
738 | PostScript or image filters. | |
f7696015 | 739 | - Updated the cupsaddsmb command to support the new CUPS |
740 | driver for Windows NT/2k/XP. | |
de659667 | 741 | - Filter status lines longer than 1023 characters could |
742 | cause the scheduler to get into an infinite loop. | |
aa25b9e1 | 743 | - The scheduler didn't reset the job state to pending |
744 | when modifying an active printer. | |
6ed689f8 | 745 | - Now limit the maximum number of recursion steps when |
746 | searching for a filter for a job, in case a user | |
747 | defines a circular filter rule. | |
748 | - The PostScript filter would embed an invalid | |
749 | requirements comment in some cases. | |
56e9c951 | 750 | - Added support for embedded job tickets in PostScript |
751 | files. | |
5ca43bfd | 752 | - The PostScript filter now detects EPS files and should |
753 | better handle printing EPS files. | |
5ae53c1e | 754 | - The cancel command now ignores a trailing destination |
755 | name when cancelling a specific job ID (Solaris | |
756 | compatibility). | |
879062a9 | 757 | - The scheduler now rejects jobs with copies outside the |
da956953 | 758 | range of 1 to MaxCopies, inclusive. |
759 | - Added new MaxCopies directive to set the maximum | |
760 | number of copies that a user can request. | |
879062a9 | 761 | - The scheduler didn't block signals while it processed |
762 | others and when it forked processes. | |
5ae53c1e | 763 | - The scheduler checked for new jobs to print when |
764 | stopping a job. This caused jobs to restart before a | |
765 | shutdown. | |
098f80c5 | 766 | - Updated the CUPS startup script to better support |
767 | different timezones and to support the RedHat/Mandrake | |
768 | init script functions, if available. | |
e426d516 | 769 | - The scheduler did not properly handle backslashes in |
770 | banner files; it incorrectly assumed that "\c" should | |
771 | always be replaced by "c", instead of only looking for | |
772 | "\{" and replacing it by "{". | |
90ca6406 | 773 | - The texttops filter didn't handle prettyprint=no. |
774 | - The text and HP-GL/2 filters didn't check for other | |
775 | common duplex option names like cupsMarkOptions() did. | |
c56db294 | 776 | - "lpoptions -x printer" no longer clears the "default |
777 | printer" status of the printer. | |
3f1897d4 | 778 | - cupsTempFd() now stops trying to create a temporary |
779 | file after 1000 tries, and aborts on any error other | |
780 | than EEXIST. This should prevent lp/lpr hangs due to | |
781 | a bad or missing temporary directory. | |
5a3ef28d | 782 | - The lpadmin command did not send the right URI to the |
783 | scheduler when setting options on classes. This | |
784 | caused a client-error-bad-request error. | |
e354b6e3 | 785 | - The CUPS API convenience functions would attempt to |
786 | connect to the remote server name in a | |
787 | "printer@server" printer name instead of dealing with | |
788 | the default (usually local) server. Aside from | |
789 | causing user confusion, the remote server name might | |
790 | not be resolved properly, causing further problems. | |
f2320e2d | 791 | - "lp -q" would cause the "lp" command to segfault, as |
792 | the program would try to print the option letter that | |
793 | caused the error using the wrong index into the | |
794 | command-line; bugfix from Debian. | |
f2ffec40 | 795 | - Fixed a minor inconsistancy in the encoding of boolean |
796 | attributes from printer options in | |
797 | cupsEncodeOptions(). | |
42ede8a2 | 798 | - Added a FilterNice directive which sets the priority |
799 | of job filter processes that are run by the scheduler. | |
93704f20 | 800 | - Added Solaris x86 USB printer support. |
34f927d3 | 801 | - The USB backend now reports both the ulpt and unlpt |
802 | devices under *BSD. | |
78ab59ae | 803 | - The "lpstat -o" command would truncate the |
804 | "printer-jobid" string if it was longer than 21 | |
805 | characters. | |
806 | - The PJL-based MIME type rules now look in the first | |
807 | 1024 bytes instead of just the first 512 bytes to find | |
808 | the language mode. | |
809 | - The image file types are now listed explicitly in the | |
810 | mime.convs file so that additional image file formats | |
811 | do not use the standard CUPS image filters by default. | |
812 | - Updated the Software Programmers Manual to include | |
813 | all of the CUPS API functions. | |
cefea041 | 814 | - ppdOpen*() no longer sorts choices for an option. |
ce691c0f | 815 | - The web interface now enforces constraints in PPD |
816 | files when configuring a printer. | |
3733593d | 817 | - When stopping a printer, the scheduler didn't set the |
818 | printer state before stopping the current job. | |
a56289b6 | 819 | - The cupsaddsmb utility now lists all data files for |
820 | Win9x and WinMe clients when installing that Windows | |
821 | driver. | |
997cf8b0 | 822 | - Jobs submitted to a class now bounce immediately to |
823 | the next available printer rather than waiting until | |
824 | that printer is available. | |
825 | - Filters and backends now also get the CLASS | |
826 | environment variable set when a job is printed to a | |
827 | printer class instead of a normal printer. | |
828 | - Added French translations of the web interface, CUPS | |
829 | Overview, Software Administrators Manual, and Software | |
830 | Users Manual contributed by Marian REYT-LLABRES. | |
6b7de82f | 831 | - Added several "hint" messages for common configuration |
832 | problems that are stored in the error_log file. | |
833 | - httpSeparate() now unquotes %xx characters in the | |
834 | username:password field of a URI. | |
5fe35f41 | 835 | - When starting the scheduler in daemon mode, the parent |
836 | process now waits for the child to signal it is ready | |
837 | to accept connections. | |
838 | - Added -F option to cupsd to run cupsd in the | |
839 | foreground but detach from the controlling terminal | |
840 | and current directory. | |
841 | - The scheduler did not reload jobs when receiving a HUP | |
842 | signal; this would cause problems since the pointers | |
843 | into the file type database would no longer be valid | |
844 | for existing jobs. | |
845 | - The scheduler did not save the network interface list | |
846 | update time, thus no caching of the network data was | |
847 | actually provided. | |
848 | - Updated the SuSE PAM configuration file. | |
9ba7fc54 | 849 | - The LPD backend now supports a "reserve" option and no |
850 | longer reserves a priviledged port by default. | |
bdfe4c00 | 851 | - The cupsaddsmb command now continues past printers |
852 | that do not have a PPD file to export. | |
19f699df | 853 | - The lpstat command didn't treat printer names as |
854 | case-insensitive. | |
855 | - The lpstat command now reports the printer location | |
856 | attribute with "lpstat -l -p". | |
c5488f2f | 857 | - Fixed a bug in the vsnprintf() emulation function, |
858 | which was used on old versions of HP-UX, IRIX, and | |
859 | Solaris. | |
b91c8a76 | 860 | - The number-up option was incorrectly being used when |
861 | printing banner pages. | |
4f759211 | 862 | - Added support for Greek and Slovak PPD files. |
aa37e40e | 863 | - CUPS now supports printer names containing any |
864 | printable character, e.g. "123-abc", "foo-bar", etc. | |
d958c5cf | 865 | - The null filter was not supported in mime.convs due to |
866 | a bug in the filter validation code. | |
3a74d6bf | 867 | - Changes in the default printer and printer attributes |
868 | were not always reflected in the generated printcap | |
869 | file. | |
8ce19460 | 870 | - Implicit classes did not inherit the location or |
871 | description from member printers. | |
fabb006b | 872 | - The httpGetHostByName() function did not handle |
873 | hostnames that started with a number. | |
1f1822fd | 874 | - Updated the filters to use the %cupsRotation comment |
904eef76 | 875 | instead of %%Orientation to auto-rotate pages, since |
876 | the use of %%Orientation is inconsistent. | |
d9e72533 | 877 | - Added the RootCertDuration directive to control how |
878 | often the root authentication certificate is updated. | |
375a0ad5 | 879 | - Increased the size of the IPP write buffer to 32k to |
880 | allow for larger attribute values and to provide more | |
881 | efficient output of large numbers of attributes. | |
7ed5d5f2 | 882 | - The polling daemon now retries the initial connection |
883 | to the remote server; this fixes a problem when the | |
884 | remote server is unavailable when the scheduler starts | |
885 | up... | |
19e7b382 | 886 | - The scheduler didn't validate Digest users against the |
887 | system group(s), so Digest and BasicDigest | |
888 | authentication didn't work for administration | |
889 | operations. | |
103abc03 | 890 | - The scheduler now passes the SHLIB_PATH environment |
891 | variable to child processes (HP-UX shared libraries) | |
06415a96 | 892 | - The scheduler now maps accesses from the loopback |
893 | interface to "localhost". | |
894 | - The cups-lpd mini-daemon sent a status code byte in | |
895 | response to queue state commands, but those commands | |
896 | only return textual data. | |
897 | ||
898 | ||
7680b71d | 899 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.15-1 |
900 | ||
901 | - The lpc and lprm sources didn't include the CUPS | |
902 | string function header, which is required on systems | |
903 | that don't have their own snprintf() function. | |
904 | - The French manpage Makefile tried to install the | |
905 | language subdirectories when it (obviously) didn't | |
906 | have to. | |
907 | ||
908 | ||
74cfdb8b | 909 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.15 |
910 | ||
dab1a4d8 | 911 | - Updated the CUPS license agreement for the new MacOS |
912 | license exception. | |
611e4623 | 913 | - The printer-info attribute now defaults to the printer |
914 | name if no value has been set. | |
52900e4c | 915 | - ppdOpen() and friends now add an "Auto" InputSlot |
916 | option if none is provided to automatically select the | |
917 | correct tray. | |
ed6078a4 | 918 | - Updated the ppdEmit() and ppdEmitFd() functions to |
919 | (re)mark the correct PageSize or PageRegion option | |
920 | depending on the selected ManualFeed or InputSlot | |
921 | options. | |
922 | - ppdEmitFd() didn't handle custom page sizes. | |
923 | - Darwin uses <pam/pam_appl.h> instead of | |
924 | <security/pam_appl.h>. | |
fba7409c | 925 | - The jobs.cgi web interface now handles all job |
926 | operations, allowing the administrator to allow "job | |
927 | administrators" or operators to manage jobs (but not | |
928 | queues) on the server. | |
929 | - The cupsDoFileRequest() function now checks if the | |
930 | filename passed into the function is a directory, and | |
931 | returns the IPP_NOT_POSSIBLE error if so. | |
932 | - New SCSI printer backend. | |
a594463b | 933 | - Cleaned up handling of locales with trailing character |
934 | set definitions. | |
a319615f | 935 | - Fixed handling of invalid PPD attributes inside |
936 | OpenUI/CloseUI. | |
b92c5a4f | 937 | - Fixed a problem with SSL and the job, printer, and |
938 | admin CGIs on ports other than 443. | |
b47f3ce5 | 939 | - The scheduler didn't handle AuthClass properly. |
e6fc9c68 | 940 | - Added French translation of man pages. |
a8ee4682 | 941 | - Updated the text filter to support the const_cast, |
942 | dynamic_cast, and static_cast keywords in ISO C++. | |
def978d5 | 943 | - Now use strlcat() and strlcpy() (or emulation |
944 | functions) for easier string/buffer protection. | |
7b40ae49 | 945 | - The auto-generated printcap/printers.conf files now |
946 | have a small comment header explaining where the file | |
947 | comes from... | |
6df23e27 | 948 | - The PostScript filter now supports 6, 9, and 16-up |
ed6078a4 | 949 | output, as well as new page-border and |
6df23e27 | 950 | number-up-layout options. |
415199da | 951 | - The lpoptions command didn't set options properly when |
952 | using the default printer. | |
953 | - Added ConfigFilePerm and LogFilePerm directives. | |
954 | - Increased maximum size of MIME types to IPP_MAX_NAME | |
955 | to allow for longer printer names. | |
956 | - No longer create remote printers when loading job | |
957 | history data. | |
958 | - The printer-make-and-model attribute wasn't set when | |
959 | the PPD file didn't contain a NickName attribute. | |
960 | - Now handle PPD files with translation strings longer | |
961 | than 80 bytes - they are truncated if they go over... | |
c47e97cc | 962 | - The scheduler didn't handle signals until after it |
963 | loaded the configuration files the first time; this | |
964 | caused problems on some installations that would | |
965 | restart the scheduler as the system booted into run | |
966 | level 3. | |
967 | - Now throttle broadcasts like we do for polling. | |
0203af93 | 968 | - Fixed a bug in the reading of PPD files using CR's |
969 | instead of CR LF's or LF's. | |
151718ce | 970 | - The scheduler would crash if cupsd.conf contained a |
971 | BrowseProtocols line with no protocols listed. | |
b05e8e24 | 972 | - The HTML job operation templates now link back to the |
973 | destination printer or class. | |
69d74c4b | 974 | - The serial backend now detects USB serial devices. |
238bae16 | 975 | - The LPD mini-daemon (cups-lpd) now passes the |
976 | job-originating-host-name attribute to the scheduler | |
977 | (cupsd). | |
a4e23897 | 978 | - Updated the IPP backend to reconnect after downgrading |
979 | from IPP/1.1 to 1.0, and when sending requests to HP | |
980 | JetDirect interfaces that don't support HTTP | |
981 | Keep-Alive like they should. | |
1cf29e95 | 982 | - Now pass NLSPATH and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment |
983 | variables, if defined, to CGI and job processes. | |
984 | - Removed the pstoraster filter (based on GNU | |
985 | Ghostscript 5.50) and now provide the raster "driver" | |
986 | and patch file necessary to use the current GNU | |
987 | Ghostscript 7.05 release. | |
988 | - Removed unnecessary fonts and updated the Courier and | |
989 | Symbol fonts to the latest versions to better support | |
990 | non-ISOLatin1 text. | |
991 | - The text filter now always embeds the Courier and | |
992 | Symbol fonts to ensure that they contain the full set | |
993 | of glyphs. | |
576b82ca | 994 | - The lp and lpr commands now only override the SIGINT |
995 | handler if it is not being ignored (patch from Robert | |
996 | Ambrose for some interactive software that catches | |
997 | SIGINT and will gracefully cancel the print...) | |
350807be | 998 | - The PostScript image filter (imagetops) now supports |
999 | printing CMYK images using the CMYK colorspace. | |
1000 | - The image filters now support CMYK JPEG files, and | |
1001 | correctly handles the inverted files from Photoshop | |
1002 | (which seems to save RGBW data, not CMYK...) | |
e3bf38b3 | 1003 | - Added a "check" target to the top-level makefile to |
1004 | conform with GNU standards (same as "test"). | |
746265a5 | 1005 | - The IPP code didn't always map the POSIX locale "C" to |
1006 | the proper IPP language code. | |
32f78676 | 1007 | - The cupsaddsmb program was updated to use the |
1008 | setdriver command instead of addprinter. | |
934ef66d | 1009 | - Banner pages were not handled properly for implicit |
1010 | classes. | |
7200e26c | 1011 | - When tunneling to a remote system using SSH, the |
1012 | printer URIs for local printers on the remote system | |
1013 | did not reflect the correct port number. | |
d7a9de63 | 1014 | - The Allow, Deny, BrowseAllow, BrowseDeny, and |
1015 | BrowseAddress directives now support the network | |
1016 | interface names "@LOCAL" and "@IF(name)" for access | |
1017 | control and browsing based on the current interface | |
1018 | addresses instead of fixed names or IP addresses. | |
2a55786c | 1019 | - The texttops filter did not properly recognize the |
1020 | "nowrap" (wrap=false) option. | |
83575f2d | 1021 | - The InstallableOptions group name in a PPD file is now |
1022 | translated separately (CUPS_MSG_OPTIONS_INSTALLED) so | |
1023 | that UIs can accurately detect the presence of this | |
1024 | group. | |
f4647930 | 1025 | - The scheduler no longer keeps job history data for |
1026 | remote printers on the client (just on the server.) | |
4c2096b8 | 1027 | - The parallel and USB backends now retry if the backend |
1028 | detects that the printer is not connected to the | |
1029 | system (rather than stopping the queue...) | |
1030 | - The network backends now retry if the backend detects | |
1031 | that the printer is not connected to the network or is | |
1032 | unreachable (rather than stopping the queue...) | |
c672a858 | 1033 | - The cupsGetDests() function no longer lists options |
1034 | and instances for printers that no longer exist. | |
31e65f97 | 1035 | - The scheduler now converts the document language to |
1036 | the correct LANG string. | |
8c47c4b4 | 1037 | - The cupsaddsmb program now supports alternative CUPS |
1038 | and SAMBA server names. | |
40a0e1d1 | 1039 | - The PostScript filter now supports the Orientation |
1040 | comment and rotates the page as needed automatically. | |
f915b00f | 1041 | - Revamped the makefiles slightly to use automatically |
1042 | generated dependencies. | |
1043 | - Build fixes for OS X. | |
a1028786 | 1044 | - The TIFF reading code depended on the newest version |
1045 | of libtiff; now conditionally compile that portion of | |
1046 | the loader. | |
bbc1bfe5 | 1047 | - The PPD code now decodes all JCL options in the |
1048 | JCLSetup group, not just those options that start with | |
1049 | the prefix "JCL". | |
267cf96a | 1050 | - The backends now read print data using the read() |
1051 | system call to ensure that the current page is printed | |
1052 | while the next page is being processed. | |
2f7be6ff | 1053 | - The pdftops filter did not support shading type 3 |
1054 | (radial fill) for the "sh" operator. | |
dab1a4d8 | 1055 | - The cups-polld program now throttles the local |
1056 | broadcasts of polled printers and classes so that the | |
1057 | local system is not overwhelmed with hundreds of | |
1058 | printers and classes all at once. | |
1059 | - Updated the serial backend to support 230,400 baud for | |
1060 | the Linux PPC port. | |
59168282 | 1061 | - The cupsGetJobs() function wouldn't report completed |
1062 | jobs that did not have a document-format attribute | |
1063 | value. | |
1c9c423b | 1064 | - The cupsEncodeOptions() function now maintains a table |
1065 | of known boolean and numeric options, and encodes all | |
1066 | other options as strings. | |
f918a565 | 1067 | - Now add a newline before the end-of-page code in the |
1068 | PostScript filter; this fixes a problem with files | |
1069 | that don't end with a newline. | |
a28d12c5 | 1070 | - The image filters looked for the "orientation" option |
1071 | instead of the correctly named "orientation-requested" | |
1072 | option. | |
74cfdb8b | 1073 | - The cupsEncodeOptions() function now handles mixed |
1074 | integers and ranges. | |
1075 | - New translation guide for developers to provide native | |
1076 | language support for CUPS. | |
1077 | ||
1078 | ||
ee8b7dd3 | 1079 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.14 |
1080 | ||
843779ef | 1081 | - The ippRead() function did not verify that the |
ba31b514 | 1082 | attribute name length or string with language value |
1083 | was not larger than the read buffer. | |
e2943c5f | 1084 | - The scheduler set the signal handlers before loading |
1085 | the configuration files the first time; this prevented | |
1086 | the RunAsUser directive from blocking server reloads. | |
5fd84fcc | 1087 | - Added Swedish message catalog. |
0e1f4bec | 1088 | - The parallel backend now recognizes the /dev/printers |
1089 | device directory under Linux 2.4.x. | |
ba31b514 | 1090 | - MacOS X fixes. |
1091 | - The cupsaddsmb utility sent the server name after the | |
1092 | user information when executing the rpcclient program. | |
1093 | This caused problems with some versions of SAMBA | |
1094 | 2.2.x. | |
ee8b7dd3 | 1095 | - The IPP backend did not pass the requesting user name |
1096 | when checking on the print job status. This prevented | |
1097 | it from waiting for the job to complete when | |
1098 | communicating with some IPP implementations that | |
1099 | require it. | |
1100 | ||
1101 | ||
d2503e02 | 1102 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.13 |
1103 | ||
28a96fe2 | 1104 | - The lpstat command did not report jobs submitted to |
1105 | regular printer classes. | |
0f74081c | 1106 | - The texttops filter didn't use sufficient precision |
1107 | when positioning text with some values of cpi and lpi. | |
1108 | This could cause the alignment of text to stray. | |
0ffae44c | 1109 | - cupsGetDests() didn't merge the options from the |
1110 | /etc/cups/lpoptions file with ~/.lpoptions - options | |
1111 | in ~/.lpoptions overrode them completely. | |
1112 | - Added support for KOI8-R and KOI8-U character sets, | |
1113 | and added several Russian message catalogs. | |
bd726d0d | 1114 | - The scheduler put the wrong timezone offset in the log |
1115 | files (e.g. +0500 instead of -0500 for EST...) | |
1116 | - The scheduler did not ignore trailing whitespace in | |
1117 | *.convs files. | |
db911fcb | 1118 | - The scheduler now forces all processes to exit (kill |
1119 | -9) when it is stopped. This prevents parallel and | |
1120 | USB devices from running in the background after cupsd | |
1121 | goes away. | |
7c587866 | 1122 | - The cupsParseOptions() function didn't skip trailing |
1123 | whitespace after quoted values. | |
c3026ddc | 1124 | - More changes to support CUPS on OS/2. |
24e80caf | 1125 | - Added Simplified Chinese message catalog. |
9495ba14 | 1126 | - Added PAM support for IRIX. |
c6e1ca5d | 1127 | - The cupsGetPPD() function didn't remove the @server |
1128 | portion of the printer name, and since it would | |
1129 | connect immediately to the remote server instead of | |
1130 | the local server, the printer would not be found. | |
8b8cca8e | 1131 | - Classification and page labels were not rotated to |
1132 | match the page orientation. | |
9ae34eb7 | 1133 | - Now set the TCP "no delay" option on network |
1134 | connections to improve performance/response time. | |
1135 | - Improved the IRIX printing tools support with patches | |
1136 | from Andrea Suatoni. | |
1137 | - Added a new PrintcapGUI directive to specify the GUI | |
1138 | option panel program to use for the IRIX printing | |
1139 | tools support. | |
1140 | - The cupsGetDests() function did not check to see if a | |
1141 | user-defined default printer (set via lpoptions) still | |
1142 | existed. | |
1143 | - The pstops filter no longer assumes that the default | |
1144 | dictionary is writable when doing N-up processing. | |
bbfcd9c7 | 1145 | - The pstops filter now supports printing N-up with the |
1146 | page-set option. | |
873a6f43 | 1147 | - The imagetoraster filter now supports direct printing |
1148 | of CMYK image data without conversion/correction. | |
d1c2727f | 1149 | - The IPP backend now reports printer state/error |
1150 | conditions when possible (toner low, media empty, | |
1151 | etc.) | |
bd73c81f | 1152 | - The lpstat command now supports the (undocumented) |
1153 | IRIX -l option ("-lprintername") for a compact job | |
1154 | listing for a printer. | |
1155 | - The lpstat command now includes printer date/time | |
1156 | information in the output (always Jan 01 00:00) to | |
1157 | make third-party tools happy. | |
18843e59 | 1158 | - The text filter now supports non-integer cpi and lpi |
1159 | values. | |
dd5f3453 | 1160 | - The Margins field in the CUPS raster header was not |
1161 | initialized by the pstoraster filter. | |
9aa1f763 | 1162 | - Added --with-optim="flags" option to configure script. |
1163 | - Updated the Italian message translations. | |
1164 | - Updated the cups.list file to install the correct | |
1165 | files. | |
1166 | - The pstoraster filter accessed the third element of a | |
1167 | 2 element array. | |
5f46b7d1 | 1168 | - The scheduler did not setup a status pipe for polling |
1169 | processes, so error messages went to whatever file | |
1170 | descriptor 2 was pointing to when they were started. | |
5fb5dab7 | 1171 | - The httpMD5Final() function didn't put a colon between |
1172 | the password and nonce strings. | |
c5de57af | 1173 | - The pstops filter did not default to Binary data for |
1174 | "%%BeginData:". | |
4a7e6692 | 1175 | - The pstops filter did not stop processing when a line |
1176 | containing a CTRL-D is seen. | |
aba2fa7e | 1177 | - The scheduler no longer replaces the JobSheets values |
1178 | from the printers.conf and classes.conf files with the | |
1179 | classification level, if set. This way the original | |
1180 | banner settings are preserved when classification | |
1181 | levels are changed or turned off. | |
8d5eb22e | 1182 | - The serial backend didn't drain the output queue, nor |
1183 | did it restore the original settings. | |
d2503e02 | 1184 | - Updated the default system group under MacOS X. |
1185 | - If no SystemGroup was defined in cupsd.conf, the | |
1186 | system default group was not used. | |
1187 | - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now supports LPD clients that | |
1188 | send multiple control files. | |
1189 | - httpConnectEncrypt() now always uses encryption for | |
1190 | connections on port 443, since port 443 is reserved | |
1191 | for the "https" scheme. | |
1192 | - Group authentication via certificates did not work | |
1193 | from the web interface for accounts other than | |
1194 | "root". | |
1195 | - The serial port backend did not clear the OPOST | |
1196 | option, which could cause problems with some printers. | |
1197 | - The cups-lpd mini-daemon didn't lookup the client IP | |
1198 | address properly. | |
1199 | - The parallel backend now identifies the polled and | |
1200 | interrupt-driven devices under *BSD. | |
1201 | - The scheduler allowed the "always" encryption mode | |
1202 | inside a Location, which is not valid. | |
1203 | - The CUPS startup script now checks for the timezone | |
1204 | information under Linux. | |
1205 | - Now also map the sides attribute to the JCLDuplex | |
1206 | option (if present) in PPD files. | |
1207 | - Updated pdftops to Xpdf 0.93a. | |
1208 | - Added support for MD5 passwords under Slackware. | |
1209 | - Added new AuthType BasicDigest that does Basic | |
1210 | authentication using the MD5 password file managed by | |
1211 | the lppasswd command. | |
1212 | - The banner page attribute substitution code now | |
1213 | retains {name} sequences in banner files when the | |
1214 | named attribute is undefined. Use {?name} to | |
1215 | conditionally substitute an IPP attribute. | |
1216 | - The scheduler now ensures that the ServerRoot | |
1217 | directory and configuration files are owned by and | |
1218 | writable by the User and Group in cupsd.conf. | |
1219 | - The USB backend now lists all USB printer devices | |
1220 | regardless of whether a printer is connected or not. | |
1221 | This allows new USB printers to be connected without | |
1222 | restarting cupsd. | |
1223 | - Added some more minor performance tweeks to the IPP | |
1224 | protocol code to reduce copying and array indexing. | |
1225 | - The cupsaddsmb utility now uses the -c option with | |
1226 | smbclient and rpcclient to avoid the read length limit | |
1227 | for commands on the standard input. | |
1228 | - Added an include file to the CRD handling code in | |
1229 | pstoraster so that it would compile properly on 64-bit | |
1230 | pointer platforms... | |
1231 | ||
1232 | ||
1233 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.12 | |
1234 | ||
1235 | - Added "Polish" to the list of known languages for PPD | |
1236 | files. | |
1237 | - Added missing directory definition to cups-config. | |
1238 | - The CUPS-Move-Job operation did not set the | |
1239 | destination type for the new destination. | |
1240 | - The CUPS-Add-Printer operation did not support the | |
1241 | allow=all or deny=none values to clear the per-user | |
1242 | printer ACLs. | |
1243 | - The SetPrinterAttrs() function did not handle invalid | |
1244 | PPD files that were missing the required NickName | |
1245 | attribute. It now looks for NickName, ModelName, and | |
1246 | then substitutes the string "Bad PPD File" for the | |
1247 | printer-make-and-model attribute. | |
1248 | ||
1249 | ||
1250 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.11 | |
1251 | ||
1252 | - Added support for embedded TrueType fonts in PDF | |
1253 | files. | |
1254 | - Added support for PostScript functions in PDF | |
1255 | files. | |
1256 | - Added new "cupsaddsmb" utility for exporting | |
1257 | CUPS printer drivers to SAMBA/Windows clients. | |
1258 | - Added preliminary support for Darwin/MacOS X. | |
1259 | - The CUPS-Add-Printer operation no longer allows | |
1260 | arbitrary scheme names in device URIs to be used - it | |
1261 | now restricts the available schemes to those found in | |
1262 | the device list (lpinfo -m). | |
1263 | - The ippRead() and ipp_read_file() functions could not | |
1264 | handle more than IPP_MAX_VALUES (100) values in a | |
1265 | 1setOf attribute. These functions have been updated | |
1266 | to dynamically allocate more memory as needed, and the | |
1267 | IPP_MAX_VALUES constant now represents the allocation | |
1268 | increment. [this caused some versions of the | |
1269 | GIMP-print drivers to fail since the number of media | |
1270 | options exceeded 100...] | |
1271 | - The scheduler could crash when BrowseShortNames | |
1272 | was set to "No". | |
1273 | - The scheduler did not prevent MaxClients from being | |
1274 | set to 0, which could cause the scheduler to go in an | |
1275 | infinite loop when accepting a request. | |
1276 | - Made some performance optimizations in the ippRead() | |
1277 | functions to make IPP request/response processing | |
1278 | faster. | |
1279 | - The accept/reject/enable/disable command did not | |
1280 | support properly support the "-h" or default | |
1281 | server name. | |
1282 | - The scheduler did not save the quota configuration | |
1283 | when the job-quota-period attribute was set to 0. | |
1284 | - The LPDEST and PRINTER environment variables did not | |
1285 | support printer instances. | |
1286 | - The text filter now handles more types of boldface and | |
1287 | underline formatting. | |
1288 | - The cupsTempFd() function did not fail if the | |
1289 | temporary directory did not exist; this would cause it | |
1290 | to loop indefinitely instead of returning an error | |
1291 | (-1). | |
1292 | - Stopping (disabling) a printer class did not stop jobs | |
1293 | from printing to printers in that class. | |
1294 | - The cupsGetDests() function was sending the | |
1295 | requested-attributes attribute as a name instead of a | |
1296 | keyword; this caused a serious performance problem on | |
1297 | slower systems since more information had to be | |
1298 | transferred from server to client. | |
1299 | - The web interfaces did not always quote < and & in | |
1300 | things like the job title. This had the potential for | |
1301 | browser-based security violations (on the browser's | |
1302 | machine); bug report from SuSE. | |
1303 | - The scheduler now treats unauthenticated usernames as | |
1304 | case-insensitive when doing quota and allow/deny | |
1305 | processing. | |
1306 | - The lp command sent the "request ID is ..." message | |
1307 | to stderr instead of stdout... | |
1308 | - The PostScript filter (pstops) now handles EPS files, | |
1309 | adding a showpage command to the files as needed. | |
1310 | - The configure script checked for the <stdlib.h> header | |
1311 | file before the JPEG libraries; since the JPEG headers | |
1312 | can define HAVE_STDLIB_H, the configure check would | |
1313 | cause the JPEG check to fail on some systems. | |
1314 | - The scheduler now supports localized banner files, | |
1315 | using the subdirectory approach, e.g. the "es" | |
1316 | subdirectory under /usr/share/cups/banners is used for | |
1317 | the Spanish banner files. | |
1318 | - Updated the scheduler so it knows the correct | |
1319 | language abbreviation to use for all supported | |
1320 | PPD LanguageVersion values. The new code also | |
1321 | supports country codes as well, so "English-GB" | |
1322 | maps to the "en_GB" locale. | |
1323 | - The cups-lpd mini-daemon did not support | |
1324 | anonymous printing (no username specified). | |
1325 | While the username is REQUIRED by RFC-1179, | |
1326 | MacOS clients do not send the REQUIRED username | |
1327 | information when printing via LPD. | |
1328 | - Added many warning and informational messages | |
1329 | to cups-lpd where they were missing. | |
1330 | - Added Czech message file contributed by SuSE. | |
1331 | - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now returns a non-zero | |
1332 | status if an invalid destination or job ID is | |
1333 | provided. | |
1334 | - The scheduler did not honor the KeepAlive setting in | |
1335 | cupsd.conf. | |
1336 | - Increased the size of the file read/write buffers to | |
1337 | 32k. | |
1338 | - *BSD static library creation fixes. | |
1339 | - Use mkstemps() instead of tmpnam() in pdftops whenever | |
1340 | possible. | |
1341 | - Added httpGetHostByName() function as a wrapper around | |
1342 | gethostbyname() - some implementations of this | |
1343 | function do not support IP addresses (e.g. MacOS X.) | |
1344 | - Added casts to all printf's of file lengths, since | |
1345 | there is currently no standard way of formatting long | |
1346 | long values. | |
1347 | - The client filename field was not cleared in all | |
1348 | instances, resulting in old form data being submitted | |
1349 | to CGIs. | |
1350 | - The httpConnect*() functions now try all available | |
1351 | addresses for a host when connecting for the first | |
1352 | time. | |
1353 | - The pstoraster filter would "lose" all drawing | |
1354 | commands when the PageSize was set but the printer | |
1355 | bitmap was not reallocated. This was most noticeable | |
1356 | with the output from StarOffice 6 beta and would | |
1357 | result in a blank page being output... | |
1358 | - The IPP backend was sending a PAGE comment even when | |
1359 | printing the output from a filter (it should only send | |
1360 | page comments when printing files directly...) | |
1361 | - The pdftops filter didn't properly map glyph names of | |
1362 | embedded Asian TrueType fonts. | |
1363 | - Changed the CUPS startup script to look for a program | |
1364 | named "cupsd", not just any program with "cupsd" in | |
1365 | the name (this caused the apcupsd UPS monitoring | |
1366 | daemon to be stopped/restarted...) | |
1367 | - The CUPS-Move-Job operation did not change the | |
1368 | internal destination name for held jobs, so moved (but | |
1369 | held) jobs would still show up as queued on the | |
1370 | original destination. | |
1371 | - The cups-polld program didn't send the | |
1372 | requested-attributes attribute in the | |
1373 | CUPS-Get-Printers and CUPS-Get-Classes requests, which | |
1374 | made it use more CPU and bandwidth than required. | |
1375 | - The scheduler and CUPS API incorrectly added a | |
1376 | job-sheets-default attribute for remote printers. This | |
1377 | caused banner pages to be omitted from client system | |
1378 | prints. | |
1379 | ||
1380 | ||
1381 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.10-1 | |
1382 | ||
1383 | - Minor fixes to the filter, systemv, and template | |
1384 | makefiles to install files properly. | |
1385 | ||
1386 | ||
1387 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.10 | |
1388 | ||
1389 | - Added a driver for DYMO label printers. | |
1390 | - Added new ClassifyOverride directive to allow users | |
1391 | to override the classification of individual jobs. | |
1392 | - Added new BrowseProtocols directive to control which | |
1393 | browse protocols are used (currently CUPS and SLP). | |
1394 | - Added SLPv2 support (thanks to Matt Peterson for | |
1395 | contributing the initial implementation for CUPS.) | |
1396 | - Adding a raw printer on a remote CUPS server now | |
1397 | correctly redirects PPD file requests to the remote | |
1398 | server. | |
1399 | - The serial backend now limits writes to 1/10th | |
1400 | second worth of data to avoid buffer overflows | |
1401 | with some types of flow control. | |
1402 | - The scheduler did not properly process PUT requests, | |
1403 | so configuration files could not be uploaded to the | |
1404 | server. | |
1405 | - The scheduler did not strip trailing whitespace on | |
1406 | lines in the configuration files. | |
1407 | - The httpWrite() function did not transition the PUT | |
1408 | request to the HTTP_STATUS state to get the status | |
1409 | from the server. | |
1410 | - The scheduler did not properly handle trailing null | |
1411 | ("-") filters when testing a driver that sent data | |
1412 | to the file: pseudo-backend. | |
1413 | - The IPP backend now only sends a document-format of | |
1414 | "application/vnd.cups-raw" when printing to another | |
1415 | CUPS server using a local printer driver or interface | |
1416 | script. Previously the job's document format was | |
1417 | used, which was incorrect. | |
1418 | - The lpadmin command didn't use the ppd-name attribute | |
1419 | with the -m option; this prevented the use of the | |
1420 | "raw" model from the command-line. | |
1421 | - The pstoraster filter output draft (1-bit) 6-color | |
1422 | output in the wrong order; this resulted in yellow | |
1423 | being printed instead of black on Stylus Photo | |
1424 | printers. | |
1425 | - The pdftops filter did not have the Japanese and | |
1426 | Chinese text support compiled into it. | |
1427 | - The IPP and AppSocket backends did not clear the | |
1428 | "waiting for print job to complete" status message, | |
1429 | which caused some confusion... :) | |
1430 | - The serial backend now opens the port in "no delay" | |
1431 | mode to avoid DCD detection problems with some OS's. | |
1432 | ||
1433 | ||
1434 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.9-1 | |
1435 | ||
1436 | - The configure script did not substitute the | |
1437 | correct user and group names. | |
1438 | - The configure script did not use the full path | |
1439 | to the install-sh script when it was used. | |
1440 | - The pstoraster filter did not correctly support | |
1441 | DuplexTumble mode for printers that used flip | |
1442 | duplexing. | |
1443 | - The cups.list.in file was missing from the | |
1444 | distribution. | |
1445 | - The New DeskJet series driver did not use the | |
1446 | correct OrderDependency for the Duplex option. | |
1447 | - Use read() instead of fread() to read piped | |
1448 | print files in lpr/lp. This avoids a bug in the | |
1449 | HP-UX 10.20 fread() function. | |
1450 | - Updated the pstoraster filter to use the MIPS_FIXADE | |
1451 | system call under IRIX to fix bus error problems on | |
1452 | R12000 processors (Ghostscript is not 64-bit clean...) | |
1453 | - Some Xerox PPD files (most notably the Phaser 790) | |
1454 | have illegal whitespace in the option keyword in the | |
1455 | OpenUI line. This caused the PageRegion option to not | |
1456 | be recognized properly for the Phaser 790. | |
1457 | ||
1458 | ||
1459 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.9 | |
1460 | ||
1461 | - Revamped the configure script to use a modular | |
1462 | approach for the various tests. | |
1463 | - Added --with-openssl-* options to properly reference | |
1464 | the OpenSSL libraries in DSOs. | |
1465 | - Added --with-cups-user and --with-cups-group | |
1466 | options to specify the default user and group for | |
1467 | CUPS. | |
1468 | - Added AIX shared library support. | |
1469 | - Added AIX device discovery for the serial and | |
1470 | parallel ports. | |
1471 | - Now use install program or script to install | |
1472 | directories, files, and symlinks. | |
1473 | - Updated pstops filter to use strict handling of EPS | |
1474 | files embedded in a PostScript document. The %%EOF | |
1475 | handling in 1.1.8 caused some dvips files not to | |
1476 | print. | |
1477 | - Fixed yet another memory allocation bug in pstoraster | |
1478 | that would cause it to crash. This fix also ensures | |
1479 | that all memory allocations are done on (at least) a | |
1480 | 64-bit boundary. | |
1481 | - Fixed Digest authentication - httpGetSubField() didn't | |
1482 | skip the Digest keyword. | |
1483 | - The scheduler did not properly handle Digest | |
1484 | authentication with the new multiple-group support. | |
1485 | - The scheduler did not allow usernames that were | |
1486 | not in the UNIX password file to be used for Digest | |
1487 | authentication from passwd.md5. | |
1488 | - The scheduler could not scan PPD files that only used | |
1489 | a carriage return (i.e. MacOS PPD files); the new code | |
1490 | is also about 40% faster, so servers with thousands of | |
1491 | PPD files should start much faster now. | |
1492 | - The scheduler now stores the PPD file size and | |
1493 | modification times in the ppds.dat file, so it can now | |
1494 | incrementally update the PPD database from the model | |
1495 | directory, resulting in significantly faster startup | |
1496 | times. | |
1497 | - The lpinfo command did not return a non-zero status | |
1498 | code if an error occurred. | |
1499 | - Fixed a bug in the scheduler's UpdateJob() function. | |
1500 | Basically, all jobs shared the same status buffer, and | |
1501 | the "buffer start" pointer could point to 1 byte | |
1502 | before the beginning of the buffer. The new | |
1503 | implementation uses a separate buffer for each job and | |
1504 | eliminates the buffer start bug. | |
1505 | - The IPP backend would send N copies of a document if | |
1506 | the receiving device didn't support the copies | |
1507 | attribute, even if the upstream driver already added | |
1508 | the necessary commands to generate the copies. This | |
1509 | was most noticeable with HP printers where N * N | |
1510 | copies would come out instead of N. | |
1511 | - The PostScript filter (pstops) did not properly handle | |
1512 | duplex printing on inkjet printers that provide this | |
1513 | option. Copies would be put on the front and back | |
1514 | sides of the duplexed page, and the filter did not | |
1515 | output an even number of pages. | |
1516 | - The backends always caught SIGTERM after they | |
1517 | connected to the printer. This prevented raw jobs | |
1518 | from being cancelled early. | |
1519 | - The cupsSetDests() function now removes any printers, | |
1520 | instances, and options that are not defined by the | |
1521 | user or server. This should prevent old system-wide | |
1522 | options from being used in individual user accounts. | |
1523 | - Updated the EPSON printer driver and added PPDs for | |
1524 | the newer EPSON Stylus printers that only support the | |
1525 | "ESC i" graphics command. | |
1526 | - The lpadmin command didn't allow you to add remote | |
1527 | printers to a local class. | |
1528 | - The lpadmin command didn't allow you to set the | |
1529 | options (quotas, etc.) for a class. | |
1530 | - The scheduler did not load or save the | |
1531 | job-sheets-default attribute for classes. | |
1532 | - The scheduler did not automatically recreate remote | |
1533 | printers that were part of a class. | |
1534 | - It was possible for a printer class to list the same | |
1535 | printer more than once. | |
1536 | - The scheduler now makes a backup copy of classes.conf | |
1537 | and printers.conf before writing the new file. | |
1538 | - The lppasswd program incorrectly asked for a new | |
1539 | password when deleting an existing MD5 password | |
1540 | account. | |
1541 | - The scheduler did not match "/printers/name.ppd" | |
1542 | against a location of "/printers/name". | |
1543 | - The client code did not always handle HTTP encryption | |
1544 | upgrades properly. | |
1545 | - The client code now caches the last Digest password so | |
1546 | it can retry using a new resource path or nonce value, | |
1547 | which are included in the MD5 sum sent to the server. | |
1548 | This should eliminate unnecessary password prompts | |
1549 | when using Digest authentication. | |
1550 | - The lppasswd command didn't have a man page. | |
1551 | - Updated the PJL detection rules to allow the universal | |
1552 | escape to occur anywhere in the first 128 bytes of the | |
1553 | file. | |
1554 | - The cups-polld program would poll servers continuously | |
1555 | with no delay if there was an error contacting the | |
1556 | server. | |
1557 | - The IPP backend would send an empty job-name or | |
1558 | requesting-user-name attribute if the corresponding | |
1559 | job attribute was an empty string. While this is | |
1560 | allowed by the IPP specification, some HP JetDirect | |
1561 | implementations return a client-error-bad-request | |
1562 | error if an empty name attribute value is received. | |
1563 | The new code only sends these attributes if they are | |
1564 | not the empty string. | |
1565 | - At least some versions of the HP JetDirect firmware | |
1566 | do not correctly implement IPP. Added additional | |
1567 | checks to the IPP backend to eliminate extra, | |
1568 | unsupported attributes which should normally be | |
1569 | ignored by a compliant IPP device. | |
1570 | - The scheduler did not copy the complete list of | |
1571 | supported file types into the | |
1572 | document-format-supported attribute. This caused | |
1573 | clients to not send the local file type (such as | |
1574 | application/vnd.cups-raw for raw print files) and the | |
1575 | corresponding bad output in some cases. | |
1576 | - The scheduler did not fully copy attributes from a | |
1577 | set-job-attributes request - string attributes were | |
1578 | only referenced, which could cause cupsd to crash | |
1579 | or behave irratically. | |
1580 | - The lp command didn't send the right value for the | |
1581 | job-hold-until attribute when "-H resume" was | |
1582 | specified. | |
1583 | - The IPP backend now returns as soon as a job is | |
1584 | completed or reported as "pending-held". | |
1585 | - Added new ImplicitAnyClasses and HideImplicitMembers | |
1586 | directives to the cupsd.conf file to make implicit | |
1587 | classes more usable/transparent to the user. | |
1588 | - Clients can now (with the appropriate authentication) | |
1589 | retrieve and update the server configuration files | |
1590 | using HTTP GET and PUT requests. | |
1591 | - The web interface didn't allow you to modify the | |
1592 | location or description of the printer. | |
1593 | - The pdftops filter now uses its own temporary file | |
1594 | function to work with PDF files using LZW compression | |
1595 | (which use the uncompress program or gunzip) | |
1596 | - The SystemGroup directive now supports specification of | |
1597 | multiple groups. | |
1598 | - Added new Include directive to cupsd.conf, a la | |
1599 | Apache. | |
1600 | - Added new pseudo-driver/PPD called "raw" that can be | |
1601 | used to create/convert a raw queue. This also allows | |
1602 | raw queues to be created in the web interface. | |
1603 | - The pdftops filter didn't handle image objects that | |
1604 | used JPEG and Flate compression together. | |
1605 | - The pstops filter counted pages wrong when using the | |
1606 | N-up and even/odd printing options. This prevented | |
1607 | the page-ranges option from working properly. | |
1608 | - Added another fix to pstoraster for a bus error | |
1609 | condition caused by a lack of parenthesis in the | |
1610 | Ghostscript code. | |
1611 | - Added new "natural-scaling" option which scales the | |
1612 | natural size of the image (percent of natural image | |
1613 | size instead of percent of page size.) | |
1614 | - The lppasswd program is now setuid to the CUPS user | |
1615 | instead of root. | |
1616 | - The PPD functions did not allow for PPD files that | |
1617 | defined the page sizes and margins before the page | |
1618 | size options. | |
1619 | - The mime.types file now checks for the PJL "LANGUAGE = | |
1620 | Postscript" command for PostScript files. | |
1621 | - The scheduler did not truncate file: output files. | |
1622 | - The PPD file reading code did not handle options with | |
1623 | raw quotes (") in the human-readable names. | |
1624 | - The pdftops filter now remaps the space character when | |
1625 | (bad) PDF files contain a .notdef glyph for the space | |
1626 | character. | |

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

2433 | ||
2434 | - Makefile/configure fixes | |
2435 | - RPM spec file and EPM list file fixes | |
2436 | - The cupsTempFile() function now uses a different | |
2437 | algorithm for generating temp files and "reserves" | |
2438 | them to avoid possible security exploitation. | |
2439 | - Now use /dev/random (if available) to seed the random | |
2440 | number generator for certificates. | |
2441 | - The /var/spool/cups and /var/spool/cups/tmp directories | |
2442 | were incorrectly owned by root; they are now owned by | |
2443 | the filter user, typically "lp". | |
2444 | - The scheduler now resets the permissions on the spool | |
2445 | and temp directories as needed to match the filter | |
2446 | user. | |
2447 | - Now expose ppdCollect() as an externally callable | |
2448 | function. | |
2449 | - The image filters now support filtering from the | |
2450 | standard input. | |
2451 | - The imagetoraster filter now collects all printer | |
2452 | options and job patch files and applies them to the | |
2453 | page header as needed. | |
2454 | - Added format and banner options to LPD backend. | |
2455 | - The send-document operation didn't start a job | |
2456 | immediately when last-document was true. | |
2457 | - The set-job-attributes operation didn't correctly | |
2458 | replace the current job-hold-until value. | |
2459 | - Removed the option wrapper code from ppdEmit() and | |
2460 | friends since it caused problems with Ghostscript | |
2461 | and many PS printers. | |
2462 | - Was setting TZ environment variable twice for job | |
2463 | filters. | |
2464 | - Added syslog logging in cups-lpd to aide in | |
2465 | debugging problems. | |
2466 | - The HP-UX parallel port backend did not list the | |
2467 | available parallel ports on some systems (printf | |
2468 | calling problem...) | |
2469 | - The lp and lpr commands overrode user options if | |
2470 | -d/-P were specified after -o. | |
2471 | - The scheduler would crash with a */* filter. | |
2472 | - Added support for a "default" filter for unknown file | |
2473 | types. The example provided in the mime.types and | |
2474 | mime.convs file prints unknown files as if "-oraw" was | |
2475 | specified for the job. This functionality is disabled | |
2476 | by default. | |
2477 | - The "compatibility" mode fix for older backends did not | |
2478 | work for smbspool. Added a workaround for it. | |
2479 | - The HP-GL/2 filter didn't perform the right pen scaling | |
2480 | with some files and the "fitplot" option. | |
2481 | - New Software Performance Specification document that | |
2482 | describes the memory, disk, and CPU usage of all the | |
2483 | CUPS software. | |
2484 | ||
2485 | ||
2486 | CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1.1 | |
2487 | ||
2488 | - The pstoraster Makefile still referenced one of the | |
2489 | old PDF filter files. | |
2490 | - The filter Makefile used INSTALL_DATA instead of | |
2491 | INSTALL_LIB to install the CUPS image library. | |
2492 | - The administration CGI didn't work properly with | |
2493 | network devices. | |
2494 | - The BrowseACL variable was not updated after the | |
2495 | cupsd.conf file was loaded. | |
2496 | - The lpd mini-daemon didn't support printer instances. | |
2497 | - Now use a default umask of 077 for child processes. | |
2498 | - Now put temp files in /var/spool/cups/tmp for child | |
2499 | processes and the root user, unless TMPDIR or TempDir | |
2500 | is defined otherwise. | |
2501 | - cupsGetPPD() no longer uses easy-to-guess filenames. | |
2502 | - The CUPS-Delete-Class and CUPS-Delete-Printer | |
2503 | operations now save classes.conf file as needed. | |
2504 | - The lppasswd command wouldn't add a user. | |
2505 | - The ppdOpen() function could cause a segfault if a | |
2506 | 0-length PPD file was read. | |
2507 | - The image filters were not handling images with | |
2508 | different X and Y resolutions properly. | |
2509 | - The imagetoraster filter defaulted to RGB output | |
2510 | instead of black output like pstoraster. | |
2511 | - The pstops filter didn't handle binary data properly. | |
2512 | - The pstops filter didn't handle copies properly for | |
2513 | PS files lacking DSC comments. | |
2514 | - The pstops filter now appends %%EOF to the end of | |
2515 | documents if they don't have it. | |
2516 | - The cupsGetPPD() function didn't work with remote | |
2517 | printers lacking the @server in the name. | |
2518 | - The configure script didn't work right when only | |
2519 | --prefix was specified. | |
2520 | - The ppdEmit() code now wraps all printer commands so | |
2521 | that buggy PostScript printers will still print a file | |
2522 | after receiving an option that isn't available. | |
2523 | - Fixed the DeskJet margin bug, and disabled 600dpi | |
2524 | color mode until it can be fixed. | |
2525 | - The cupsAddDest() function didn't sort instances | |
2526 | correctly in all cases. | |
2527 | - The time-at-xyz attributes now expand to the date and | |
2528 | time in banner files. | |
2529 | ||
2530 | ||
2531 | CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1 | |
2532 | ||
2533 | - Documentation updates. | |
2534 | - Configuration script updates. | |
2535 | - Didn't map charset and language value strings to lowercase | |
2536 | and _ to - as required by SLP and IPP. | |
2537 | - ppdLoadXYZ() didn't add the list of available fonts to the | |
2538 | ppd_file_t structure. | |
2539 | - The text filter common code was freeing the PPD file data | |
2540 | before it was used. | |
2541 | - The text filter now embeds missing fonts. | |
2542 | - The CGI interface now maps local access to the server to | |
2543 | the localhost address. | |
2544 | - The HP-GL/2 filter didn't use the specified (or default) | |
2545 | color ranges, resulting in strange colors. | |
2546 | - The HP-GL/2 filter didn't default to no input window, which | |
2547 | caused unnecessary clipping of plots. | |
2548 | - Integrated Xpdf's pdftops filter into CUPS, which is a | |
2549 | lightweight and reliable replacement for Ghostscript's | |
2550 | PDF support. | |
2551 | - Removed all PDF support from Ghostscript. | |
2552 | - Updated HP driver to set top margin; this seems to fix | |
2553 | the offset problem seen on HP DeskJet printers. | |
2554 | - Fixed dependencies on the ZLIB and JPEG libraries in | |
2555 | pstoraster. | |
2556 | - The lpr command wasn't using the lpoptions defined by | |
2557 | the user. | |
2558 | - The lpr command would segfault if the CUPS server was | |
2559 | not running. | |
2560 | - The top-level makefile was not installing the CUPS | |
2561 | initialization script. It now does so if it sees there | |
2562 | is an init.d directory in /sbin, /etc/rc.d, or /etc. | |
2563 | - "lpstat -v all" didn't work. | |
2564 | - pstoraster would crash on some platforms doing the | |
2565 | setpagedevice operator. | |
2566 | - The web administration interface now allows you to set | |
2567 | the default banner pages. | |
2568 | - Images can now be positioned on the page using the new | |
2569 | "position" option. | |
2570 | - The AccessLog, ErrorLog, and PageLog directives now | |
2571 | support "%s" to insert the server name. | |
2572 | - Added a new BrowseShortNames directive to allow for | |
2573 | short remote printer names ("printer" instead of | |
2574 | "printer@server") when possible. | |
2575 | - The scheduler could crash if given an invalid PPD file | |
2576 | with no PageSize attributes. | |
2577 | - Updated the serial, parallel, and usb backends to do | |
2578 | multiple writes and ignore ioctl() errors as needed; | |
2579 | this should fix problems with serial printing on old | |
2580 | serial drivers and with the UltraSPARC parallel port | |
2581 | driver under Solaris 2.7. | |
2582 | - Now propagate LD_LIBRARY_PATH to child processes from | |
2583 | cupsd. | |
2584 | - New DataDir directive for installing in alternate | |
2585 | locations. | |
2586 | - New CUPS_SERVERROOT and CUPS_DATADIR environment | |
2587 | variables to specify installation directories as | |
2588 | needed. | |
2589 | - Queued remote jobs recreate remote printers as needed | |
2590 | when the scheduler is started. | |
2591 | - Deleting a printer also purges all jobs on that | |
2592 | printer. | |
2593 | - Old job and control files that don't belong to a | |
2594 | printer are automatically deleted. | |
2595 | - Wasn't updating time-at-processing and | |
2596 | time-at-completed attributes in job. | |
2597 | - Didn't send required multiple-operation-time-out | |
2598 | attribute in response to a get-printer-attributes | |
2599 | request. | |
2600 | - cups-lpd now supports options set with lpoptions. | |
2601 | - The job-hold-until attribute is now provided with all | |
2602 | jobs. For jobs that are not currently held the value | |
2603 | is "no-hold". | |
2604 | - The scheduler was not sending "unknown" values in IPP | |
2605 | responses. | |
2606 | - The lpoptions command now accumulates options from | |
2607 | previous runs rather than replacing all options for a | |
2608 | printer. | |
2609 | - The IPP backend now switches to IPP/1.0 if a 1.1 | |
2610 | request fails. | |
2611 | - The lpadmin and admin.cgi programs now validate new | |
2612 | printer and class names. | |
2613 | - The access_log file now includes the number of IPP bytes | |
2614 | received in a POST request. | |
2615 | ||
2616 | ||
2617 | CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b5 | |
2618 | ||
2619 | - Documentation updates. | |
2620 | - The pstoraster filter didn't compile without the JPEG library. | |
2621 | - The cupsd server didn't support the HTTP OPTIONS request | |
2622 | method. | |
2623 | - Dropped the "CLOSE" method supported by the cupsd server. | |
2624 | (not defined in HTTP specification) | |
2625 | - Makefile/configure script fixes. | |
2626 | - Missing the job-restart template. | |
2627 | - Added IPP test suite for testing. | |
2628 | - Missing IPP documentation from binary distributions. | |
2629 | - Fixed multiple-document handling code when last-document | |
2630 | not specified. | |
2631 | - Added more checks to IPP requests to prevent bad requests | |
2632 | from getting through. | |
2633 | - Not all of the Ghostscript error output was being sent to | |
2634 | stderr. | |
2635 | - The PostScript filter now added PJL commands to set the | |
2636 | job name and display string, if supported. | |
2637 | - The scheduler would crash if the browse socket could not | |
2638 | be bound. Now disables browsing if port 631 (reserved for | |
2639 | IPP) is being used by a misbehaving daemon. | |
2640 | - The USB backend now looks for the older Linux 2.2.x USB | |
2641 | printer device filenames as well as the newer ones. | |
2642 | - The IPP backend now uses the UTF-8 charset exclusively, | |
2643 | since apparently only CUPS handles more than US-ASCII and | |
2644 | UTF-8... | |
2645 | - Wasn't quoting ( in PostScript banners... | |
2646 | - Send-document requests with no document-format attribute | |
2647 | could cause cupsd to crash. | |
2648 | - Old jobs in the spool directory might cause cupsd to | |
2649 | crash. | |
2650 | - CUPS now supports all of the recommended job-hold-until | |
2651 | keywords as well as name values of the form "HH:MM" and | |
2652 | "HH:MM:SS". | |
2653 | - Added placeholder pointer for TLS encryption to the HTTP | |
2654 | connection structure. | |
2655 | - Fixed the "fast poll" bug reported by DISA - the | |
2656 | status pipe wasn't being closed for multi-file jobs. | |
2657 | - Revamped put_params code in pstoraster to fix bitmap | |
2658 | allocation bug with FrameMaker output. | |
2659 | - Ripped out filename, etc. code from pstoraster as it | |
2660 | is a potential security hole. | |
2661 | - Added support for RIP_CACHE environment variable in the | |
2662 | new pstoraster. | |
2663 | - Fixed USB device filenames for Linux; now support new | |
2664 | pre-2.4 devices (/dev/usb/lp#) and 2.2 devices | |
2665 | (/dev/usblp#) | |
2666 | - Fixed accept-jobs crash with classes. | |
2667 | - Didn't include dot-matrix EPSON drivers in previous | |
2668 | release. | |
2669 | ||
2670 | ||
2671 | CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b4 | |
2672 | ||
2673 | - Documentation updates. | |
2674 | - Many makefile and configuration script fixes (should | |
2675 | now compile better under *BSD.) | |
2676 | - The MediaPosition attribute was being mishandled by | |
2677 | GhostScript, causing the RIP to fail whenever a paper | |
2678 | tray was selected. | |
2679 | - The scheduler now logs the final line of log information | |
2680 | from a filter, even if it doesn't end with a newline; this | |
2681 | primarily affects GhostScript error output. | |
2682 | - The scheduler was saving implicit classes, so after a few | |
2683 | restarts you'll end up with AnyPrinter, AnyAnyPrinter, etc. | |
2684 | - The JPEG autodetection didn't work with some JPEG files that | |
2685 | came from digital cameras (JPEG but not JFIF); the new | |
2686 | magic types should work with all images that the JPEG library | |
2687 | can handle. | |
2688 | - Fixed a bug in the new contains() MIME type rule that could | |
2689 | cause cupsd to crash. | |
2690 | - Switched to using strtol() in the MIME type code so that you | |
2691 | can use hex, octal, or decimal constants as desired in the | |
2692 | mime.types file. | |
2693 | - Banner files are now treated as templates, allowing any type | |
2694 | of file to be used as a banner. | |
2695 | - Added a 30-second timeout to backend device reports so that a | |
2696 | hung backend will not prevent the scheduler from starting. | |
2697 | - Backends are once again terminated when jobs are stopped; the | |
2698 | CUPS-supplied backends will stay alive until the downstream | |
2699 | filters have had a chance to clear out old page data. | |
2700 | - The charset lookup in the CUPS localization support was wrong | |
2701 | (iso8859-x instead of iso-8859-x) | |
2702 | - Changed the "cpNNNN" code page files to "windows-NNNN" to match | |
2703 | the IANA registrations. | |
2704 | - New PostScript banner pages. | |
2705 | - Added Windows BMP and Alias PIX image file support to the image | |
2706 | filter. | |
2707 | - The PNG reading coded didn't free all of its buffers. | |
2708 | - Added Digest authentication support to the client and server | |
2709 | code. | |
2710 | - Added Solaris options to System V commands. | |
2711 | - Now support the output-bin job template attribute. | |
2712 | - Now log the job-billing attribute in the page_log file, and | |
2713 | keep track of the total number of pages in the | |
2714 | job-media-sheets-completed attribute. | |
2715 | - The penwidth option is now in micrometers to support more | |
2716 | accurate width specification. | |
2717 | - The image filters now support interlaced and transparent PNG | |
2718 | files. | |
2719 | - Didn't handle Keep-Alive for HTTP/1.0 clients. | |
2720 | - The BrowsePoll support didn't handle when BrowseInterval | |
2721 | was set to 0 (now uses 30 seconds if BrowseInterval is 0) | |
2722 | - The DeskJet driver now supports 600 DPI color for printers | |
2723 | that support it. | |
2724 | - New lpinfo and lpmove commands. | |
2725 | - The lpq command now supports the Digital UNIX output format. | |
2726 | - The LPD mini-daemon now supports all required LPD operations. | |
2727 | - Implemented timeouts for multi-file documents. | |
2728 | - New cupsPrintFiles() function in the CUPS API library to | |
2729 | print multiple files using create-job and send-document | |
2730 | requests (1 job ID for multiple files) | |
2731 | - The lp command now sends multiple files as a single job, | |
2732 | matching the behavior of the System V command. | |
2733 | - The "cancel -a" command now purges job history files. | |
2734 | ||
2735 | ||
2736 | CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b3 | |
2737 | ||
2738 | - Documentation updates. | |
2739 | - The startup script redirected stderr before stdout, | |
2740 | which caused problems with some versions of Bourne | |
2741 | shell and Bash. | |
2742 | - Fixed a bug in the scheduler's PPD language reading | |
2743 | code. | |
2744 | - Fixed a bug in the scheduler's check for the | |
2745 | manufacturer in the PPD. | |
2746 | - The pstoraster filter didn't allow some input and | |
2747 | output attributes to be set. | |
2748 | - Added banner page support. | |
2749 | - Added missing PAM configuration file. | |
2750 | - Configuration script fixes for Linux and *BSD. | |
2751 | - The log file code was using the wrong sign for the | |
2752 | timezone offset. | |
2753 | - The default printcap file is now empty (no printcap | |
2754 | file is generated). | |
2755 | - The scheduler did not start jobs destined for remote | |
2756 | printers when they became available. | |
2757 | - The scheduler now sends jobs to remote printers | |
2758 | immediately. (when sending jobs to a class, the remote | |
2759 | printer is only used when it becomes available) | |
2760 | - The scheduler now supports printing of banner pages | |
2761 | via the job-sheets attribute (banner files go in | |
2762 | /usr/share/cups/banners) | |
2763 | - The cupsd process now forks itself into the background | |
2764 | (override with -f) | |
2765 | - Added several *BSD enhancements. | |
2766 | - Added UNSUPPORTED libtool option to configuration | |
2767 | script to allow the use of libtool. Note that this is | |
2768 | UNSUPPORTED by us, but added by request of the *BSD | |
2769 | folks. | |
2770 | - The parallel, serial, and usb backends now retry the | |
2771 | opening of their ports. This allows multiple print | |
2772 | queues to be associated with a single physical port, | |
2773 | and will allow CUPS to support several types of | |
2774 | parallel port auto-switches in the near future. | |
2775 | - Set-Job-Attributes now supports adding, changing, and | |
2776 | deleting job template attributes, and no longer allows | |
2777 | job-printer-uri to be set (see CUPS-Move-Job) | |
2778 | - Added CUPS-Move-Job operation to support moving of jobs. | |
2779 | - The CGI template functionality now supports multiple | |
2780 | languages (still only have templates for English) | |
2781 | - The CUPS-Get-Printers and CUPS-Get-Classes operations | |
2782 | now support filtering as defined in the IDD. | |
2783 | - The Get-Jobs, CUPS-Get-Printers, and CUPS-Get-Classes | |
2784 | operations no longer limit themselves to 1000 jobs, | |
2785 | printers, or classes (believe it or not, this is | |
2786 | needed for some sites) | |
2787 | - The web interfaces now support language-specific | |
2788 | templates. | |
2789 | - The web admin interface now supports class management. | |
2790 | - The web admin interface now shows a list of | |
2791 | manufacturers before selecting the PPD/driver for a | |
2792 | specific printer. | |
2793 | - The web admin interface now supports configuration of | |
2794 | the default printer options in the PPD file. | |
2795 | - The web interface now uses printer/class | |
2796 | authentication for the test page instead of admin | |
2797 | authentication. | |
2798 | - Updated the RPM spec file for the current release. | |
2799 | - Updated language support for Windows code pages. | |
2800 | - 8-bit character set files can now use multiple fonts | |
2801 | (needed for Arabic, Greek, Hebrew, etc.) | |
2802 | - Added basic right-to-left text support in the text | |
2803 | filter. | |
2804 | - The POSIX locale now uses ISO-8859-1 instead of | |
2805 | US-ASCII. | |
2806 | - Fixed PDF printing problems. | |
2807 | - Fixed PostScript RIP page device dictionary elements | |
2808 | that weren't getting passed in cups_get_params(). | |
2809 | - Added a new "contains" rule for the magic file typing. | |
2810 | - The "printable" rule now accepts characters from 128 to 255 | |
2811 | (needed for Microsoft character sets) | |
2812 | - Added support for ~/.cupsrc as well as /etc/cups/client.conf | |
2813 | so that the default server can be configured on a per-user | |
2814 | basis without environment variables. | |
2815 | - Added LPD mini-daemon to support incoming LPD jobs. | |
2816 | ||
2817 | ||
2818 | CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b2 | |
2819 | ||
2820 | - Documentation updates. | |
2821 | - The lp command didn't always load the user-defined | |
2822 | destinations, preventing it from seeing the default | |
2823 | printer. | |
2824 | - Many configure script and makefile fixes. | |
2825 | - The Microsoft code page files were missing from the | |
2826 | distribution. | |
2827 | - Added a workaround for the HP IPP client (which is sending | |
2828 | an invalid printer-uri in requests) | |
2829 | - Fixed the encoding of text-with-language and name-with-language | |
2830 | to match the IPP spec. | |
2831 | - Added support for unknown value tags in the IPP routines | |
2832 | (previously they would be ignored) | |
2833 | - Integrated GNU GhostScript 5.50 into the pstoraster filter. | |
2834 | - Client hostname resolution was broken on little-endian | |
2835 | machines. | |
2836 | - Now look at client.conf file for client's default server | |
2837 | and printer. | |
2838 | - The cupsServer() function did not close the client.conf file | |
2839 | if it contained a ServerName directive. | |
2840 | - Added BrowseAllow, BrowseDeny, BrowseOrder, BrowsePoll, and | |
2841 | BrowseRelay directives. | |
2842 | - BrowseInterval 0 disables advertising of local printers, but | |
2843 | still receives information on remote printers. | |
2844 | - New browse polling daemon (for polling servers on different | |
2845 | networks) | |
2846 | - New PPD cache file for faster startup times with large numbers | |
2847 | of PPD files. | |
2848 | - The Host: field was incorrectly required for HTTP/1.0 clients. | |
2849 | - New set-job-attributes operation now supported. | |
2850 | - The mime_load_types() and mime_load_convs() functions did not | |
2851 | close their input files. | |
2852 | ||
2853 | ||
2854 | CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b1 | |
