55 broadcasts, resulting in missing printers on client
56 machines (STR #754)
41d6188e 57 - The scheduler did not pass the correct CUPS_ENCRYPTION

225b3683 400
6d8c10c5 401 - The serial backend set the IXANY option on the port

442 is 64 bits (STR #262)
0cd4970e 443 - Added backend tweeks and content-length check from Red
444 Hat (STR #253)
445 - The USB backend now uses the 8255 constants instead of
446 the standard constants when reporting printer status
447 bits on Linux (STR #254)
3ec5b662 448 - Added new cupsDoAuthentication(), cupsGetFd(),
449 cupsGetFile(), cupsPutFd(), and cupsPutFile() functions
450 to the CUPS API (STR #112)
c50b7b12 451 - The PDF filter always scaled and offset pages; this
452 caused problems under MacOS X, so now the "fitplot"
453 option controls whether PDF files are scaled to fit
454 within the printable area of the page (STR #250)
455 - The LPD backend did not support the port number in a
456 URI (STR #247)
457 - Some filters didn't properly support boolean options
458 (STR #249)
459 - Landscape PDF files were not always offset by the
460 correct amount when rotating (STR #243)
1a673d32 461 - The scheduler could hang in a call to localtime() when
462 logging messages from the signal handler (STR #242)
f235af09 463 - The PDF filter no longer prints form widgets; this
464 duplicates the behavior of Acrobat Reader (STR #241)
28ae836a 465 - cupsGetPPD() didn't handle a late termination of a
466 HTTP connection with the server (STR #220)
60dc191d 467 - ppdOpen() did not correctly check for "*PPD-Adobe-4."
468 on the first line of a PPD file. This caused incorrect
469 PASS results for some PPD files (STR #233)
2268893f 470 - cupsEncodeOptions() did not allow boolean options to
471 use "yes" and "on" for true values (STR #227)
5cacfcee 472 - The pstops filter only sent the TBCP exit sequence if
473 it was defined in the JCLEnd attribute in the PPD file
474 (STR #224)
0a0621ae 475 - Support for more than 1024 files was broken on Solaris
476 9 (STR #217)
4342fddc 477 - The setgroups() calls now pass in 1 group (the
478 configured group) instead of 0 for compatibility with
479 BSD and Darwin (STR #213)
c2179d0f 480 - The scheduler's built-in broadcast throttling was
481 ineffective since incoming packets would cause the
482 next group of outgoing packets to be sent immediately
483 rather than waiting for the next time slot (STR #211)
49de8bd2 484 - Added a new ppdSetConformance() function to set the
485 conformance requirements for PPD files. Currently only
486 two levels are defined, PPD_CONFORM_RELAXED and
487 PPD_CONFORM_STRICT, and the default is the relaxed
488 level (STR #212)
b8f3410f 489 - The IPP backend did not correctly execute the
490 pictwpstops filter on OSX (STR #210)
82ba0702 491 - The LPD backend did not set the banner class when the
492 "banner=yes" option was specified in the device URI
493 (STR #209)
0c676a75 494 - The imagetoraster filter did not support all of the
495 page device attributes (STR #208)
84dd2ced 496 - The pdftops filter incorrectly auto-rotated pages when
497 the user already had specified the proper orientation
498 (STR #207)
e5734f04 499 - Fixed AIX shared library support (STR #201)
ff40b65e 500 - Added support for live testing with Valgrind (STR
501 #193)
0372885f 502 - The CGI programs now collect the list of needed
503 attributes for the class, job, and printer template
504 files (STR #192)
0f71c41e 505 - The scheduler now passes the first port that is bound
506 to the local loopback or "any" addresses to the CGI
507 programs rather than the port that the browser
508 connected to (STR #103)
d3d40607 509 - The cupstestppd program now checks for bad
510 JobPatchFile attributes and incorrect versions of the
511 Manufacturer attribute for HP printers (STR #155)
512 - The filter makefile incorrectly installed
513 libcupsimage.a in the filter directory (STR #180)
514 - The scheduler did not verify that the job history
515 files define the job-priority and
516 job-originating-user-name attributes (STR #178)
a09a157e 517 - The pstops filter didn't handle poorly-formed binary
518 PostScript files that had CTRL-D's in them (STR #156)
5a617005 519 - The ppdOpen*() and cupsLangGet() functions did not
520 make a copy of the old locale strings when using the
521 POSIX locale when reading files, which apparently
522 caused problems with some implementations of the
523 standard C library. (STR #159)
524 - The pdftops filter did not work properly with some
525 embedded Type1C fonts (STR #177)
0e2e516e 526 - Updated the pdftops filter to be based upon Xpdf
527 2.02pl1 (STR #191)
daf8f5f0 528 - The scheduler did not reset the group list when
529 running CGI and filter processes (STR #185)
530 - The scheduler no longer calls malloc and free from the
531 signal handlers (STR #190)
964eb42f 532 - The USB backend now uses the manufacturer and model
533 strings if the description string is not available
534 (STR #174)
fd8e0b1e 535 - The ppdOpen functions still supported the
536 VariablePaperSize attribute, which was removed in v4.0
537 of the PPD spec. This caused problems with PPD files
538 that relocated the PageSize option to a non-standard
539 group (STR #158)
9fcd7a75 540 - The cups.list file referenced MAN1EXT, MAN3EXT, and
541 MAN5EXT, but none of those were actually defined (STR
542 #147)
20bde6fb 543 - Chunked requests could cause a Denial of Service if
544 the connection is terminated before the first byte of
545 chunk data is sent/received (STR #143)
2f20a999 546 - Printers with special characters in their names were
547 not accessible from the web interface (STR #120)
90e1aedc 548 - The lpstat command now shows the correct interface
549 script or PPD file, if any, for a print queue (STR #89)
550 - The lpstat command now shows the printer-state-message
551 and printer-state-reasons attributes whenever they are
552 not blank (STR #152)
33c76e27 553 - The French and German option-conflict.tmpl template
554 files did not get installed (STR #148)
555 - The cups.list.in file did not work when compiling
556 without shared libraries (STR #149)
557 - The DSOFLAGS included the LDFLAGS, which causes
558 problems on at least HP-UX (STR #150)
f49663d5 559 - The fax printer support did not keep track of the fax
560 capability bit (STR #144)
561 - The appleLangDefault() function could leak a small
562 amount of memory (STR #145)
2e8cd988 563 - The ppdOpen() functions now mirror all normal
564 attributes to the attribute list; previously only
565 certain unassigned attributes would be added (STR
af50faa7 566 #139)
567 - The ppdEmitJCL() function wrote JCL commands to stdout
568 instead of the passed file pointer (STR #142)
33b8a82d 569 - The httpGets() function could, in certain states,
570 block waiting for data (STR #132)
ae90e335 571 - The cupsEmitJCL() function not outputs an empty @PJL
572 command after the PJL language escape to work around
573 bugs in certain PJL implementations (STR #131)
574 - The cupsEmit*() functions didn't set the orientation
575 value properly (STR #127)
3fc87a99 576 - The cups.spec file didn't list the rc2.d init
ae90e335 577 directory or the cupstestppd file (STR #134)
3fc87a99 578
579
8dc4af74 580CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19
581
a17e6548 582 - The GNU TLS code incorrectly used
583 gnutls_check_pending() instead of
584 gnutls_record_check_pending() (STR #128)
8c5f90ff 585 - The ppdEmit() functions output "PageSize Custom"
586 instead of "CustomPageSize True" in the DSC comments.
587 Also, the custom page size code did not use the
588 ParamCustomPageSize attributes (STR #127)
ea13a0f9 589 - The cupstestppd command did not list the conflicting
590 options (STR #123)
f9e6375d 591 - The lpq command did not ensure that there was
592 whitespace between the fields in the job listing (STR
593 #117)
594 - The German web templates had errors (STR #119)
314ee107 595 - The configure script didn't specify the static
596 libraries properly when configuring with the
597 --disable-shared option (STR #104)
5c47aed9 598 - The cups.list file used file dependencies for package
599 formats other than portable, RPM, and Debian (STR #98)
600 - cupsLangGet() didn't use its language cache (STR #97)
31d18669 601 - "lpq -P" would segfault instead of showing a usage
602 message (STR #94)
8dc4af74 603 - Fixed compiler warnings in pdftops filter (STR #96)
604
605
af57319f 606CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19rc5
7f797921 607
1ed20df6 608 - Jobs with banner pages that were printed to implicit
609 classes would get double banner pages for each
610 file/banner in the job (STR #68)
8fa5f1c6 611 - The mime.convs file was missing the filter definition
612 for Windows BMP (image/x-bitmap) files (STR #85)
8fc34542 613 - The scheduler allowed some READ-ONLY job attributes to
614 be set, which could cause the scheduler to fail on the
615 next restart (STR #82)
dd4497dd 616 - The lp and lpr commands did not report when the
617 scheduler was not responding; instead, the user would
618 incorrectly see a "no default destination" error (STR
619 #70)
92498b68 620 - cupsLangGet() could fail on OSX due to a corrupt
621 language preference (STR #78)
92e48f04 622 - Added more checks for HTTP request timeouts.
af57319f 623 - The scheduler dropped the first non-alpha character
624 after an open brace when doing attribute substitutions
625 in banner pages (STR #77)
7f797921 626 - The scheduler child might send SIGUSR1 to the parent
627 before the signal handler was installed; this didn't
628 prevent the scheduler from starting but produced an
629 annoying error message (STR #45)
630
631
2e6bce36 632CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19rc4
3dea040b 633
fb766c9e 634 - The lp command did not accept "-" for printing from
635 the standard input as required by POSIX 1003.1 (STR
636 #59)
d8b9e5fa 637 - Added the job-originating-host-name information for
638 the page_log file documentation in the SAM (STR #31)
a0d4f607 639 - The German web interface templates did not use the
640 right paths for job operations (STR #54)
2e6bce36 641 - The scheduler would consume all available CPU if
642 started with a pending job in the queue (STR #35)
3dea040b 643 - The polling daemon allocated an extra localization
644 buffer but did not free it, causing cups-polld to
645 eventually use all available memory (STR #40)
646
647
e309e07a 648CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19rc3
649
b07e0cc2 650 - The scheduler could get in an infinite loop cancelling
651 jobs using "cancel -u user dest" (STR #48)
652 - The "cancel -u user" command did nothing (it should
653 cancel all jobs on all printers owned by the named
654 user - STR #48)
b01791df 655 - The scheduler would write 0-length job control files
656 (STR #46)
9b2fe6bd 657 - Updated the French man pages (translation provided by
658 Gilles QUERRET)
aa3b74e1 659 - The scheduler would delete all printers from
660 printers.conf if a job was active when a HUP signal
661 was handled (STR #47)
662 - The cups-polld program would leak memory if it was
663 unable to send browse packets to the loopback
664 interface (STR #40)
bb9df75d 665 - The scheduler did not put the
666 job-originating-host-name attribute in the job
667 attributes group.
668 - The text filter did not default to wrapping text as
669 defined by the IPP implementation document.
335b78e9 670 - Scan backends first, PPDs second (STR #37)
3d16d701 671 - Updated the Netatalk documentation in the SAM (STR #38
672 and #39)
254aa207 673 - The test suite sent text files to a non-PS print queue,
674 which requires ESP Ghostscript (provided separately).
675 Now send the JPEG test file (STR #33)
676 - The test suite did not show the estimated disk space
677 requirements (STR #33)
678 - The test suite did not set the MaxLogSize directive to
679 0 to prevent log file rotation (STR #33)
680 - The test suite still setup the old CUPS Ghostscript
681 symlinks (STR #33)
c7985008 682 - The pstops filter did not report the correct number of
683 copies for the page_log file when printing collated
684 copies to a printer that doesn't support them in
685 hardware (STR #32)
3fa35ec0 686 - cupsLangGet() needs to set the CTYPE locale to "C"
687 (POSIX) to avoid erroneous tolower/toupper values (fix
688 suggested by Bjoern Jacke)
380b07e9 689 - Fixed a typo in the cups.list.in file.
e309e07a 690 - Updated all of the Western European locales to default
3fa35ec0 691 to ISO-8859-15 (for Euro support, suggested by Bjoern
692 Jacke)
693 - Updated the German message catalog (update provided by
694 Bjoern Jacke)
e309e07a 695
696
b696f4e3 697CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19rc2
698
ac098b06 699 - cupsLangGet() now sets the encoding field based on the
700 trailing charset in the locale name, and doesn't look
701 for a message catalog in a specific locale.charset
702 directory. This fixes STR #26 and is more in line
703 with the CUPS 1.2 implementation.
89e75dbd 704 - The configure script now aborts if the "ar" command or
705 compilers cannot be found.
69d2b731 706 - The static cupsimage library was not built by default.
2abcdcaa 707 - The path for the "ln" command was hardcoded in
708 Makedefs.in instead of being checked at configure time
709 (STR #28).
c4885a3a 710 - Banner pages containing unescaped { characters would
711 not work.
c8a55d2c 712 - The printer-state-time collection attribute was
713 encoded as an enumeration instead of an integer.
714 - The printer-is-accepting-jobs collection attribute was
715 was not added to the collection value.
716 - The printer-state-sequence-number collection attribute
717 was not added to the collection value.
d8e1f369 718 - Fixed typo and const mismatch in IPP backend.
719 - Updated the man pages for the new configuration
720 directives.
721 - Updated the SAM for MacOS 10.2, the CUPS drivers for
722 windows, the available LPD backend options, and the
723 new configuration directives.
de8a4f54 724 - The imagetops filter didn't position images properly
725 on the page (STR #18)
f2cdaedc 726 - The configure script didn't add CPPFLAGS to the
727 compiler options or LDFLAGS to the DSO options (STR
728 #13)
b696f4e3 729 - The scheduler would try to write a debug log message
730 when starting a job that contained a NULL string.
731 Since not all versions of snprintf() support NULL
f2cdaedc 732 string pointers this caused some problems (STR #20)
b696f4e3 733 - The testipp program now supports reading of IPP
734 message files such as those used for the job history
735 in /var/spool/cups.
736
737
fc7f6f69 738CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.19rc1
6e3d4276 739
265fb4a4 740 - Added CUPS support files for Java, Perl, and PHP
741 (located in the "scripting" subdirectory...)
53510eae 742 - The scheduler now supports fast-reloads of the
743 cupsd.conf file when it is updated via HTTP.
744 - The scheduler always changed the ownership of log
745 files; it now only does so if they are not in the /dev
746 directory (i.e. don't want to change the ownership and
747 permissions of /dev/null...)
b4f2ed46 748 - Added libpaper support (patch from Jeff Licquia)
4fc54d8c 749 - Added a new istring() rule for MIME types files that
750 does a case-insensitive comparison of strings.
1e6bd2df 751 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now sends jobs to the default
752 queue when an empty queue name (or "lp" and there is
753 no "lp" queue) is sent.
e532393d 754 - The scheduler now supports fax queues identified by a
755 "*cupsFax: True" attribute in the PPD file. When a job
53510eae 756 can't be sent, it is held for 5 minutes by default
757 while other jobs are attempted. The FaxRetryLimit and
758 FaxRetryInterval directives control the number of
759 retries and the time between retries.
0e4f2c25 760 - The scheduler now preserves the default options of PPD
761 files when modifying/upgrading an existing PPD file.
762 When installing a new printer, the scheduler sets the
763 default media size to Letter or A4 as appropriate for
764 your locale.
5073e3f8 765 - The scheduler no longer limits the number of
766 BrowseAddress, BrowsePoll, BrowseRelay, Listen, Port,
767 SSLListen, and SSLPort directives to 10.
d59a189c 768 - The scheduler now supports print files that have been
769 compressed using gzip.
4e43f59e 770 - The scheduler used the stdio functions to read any job
771 ticket information in a PostScript print job. Since
772 some platforms limit the number of stdio files to 256,
773 job ticket information was ignored when the server had
774 a large number of clients connected to the system.
8f4595eb 775 - Filters and backends may now report the total number
776 of pages ("PAGE: total NNN") to the scheduler.
55737cf0 777 - The LPD backend now supports timeout and
778 sanitize_title options (default to 300 and yes,
779 respectively) and has some additional changes to
780 reduce the chances of multiple copies being printed
781 when only one copy was requested.
b5111a23 782 - Fixed a polygon drawing bug in the HP-GL/2 filter.
ded143b8 783 - Added a robots.txt file to the standard install to
784 prevent search engines from indexing the CUPS server.
62bcac22 785 - Added support for STATE: messages
786 (printer-state-reasons), printer-state-history, and
787 printer-state-time to the scheduler.
598aeabc 788 - When using RunAsUser, the scheduler would initially
789 start any previously queued (pending) jobs with
790 RunAsUser disabled - all backends would be running as
791 root.
4d4fb342 792 - If a backend failed for a printer, CUPS would
793 incorrectly requeue the job for printing again.
c3719c59 794 - Added support for IPP collections and files.
3721af07 795 - Added experimental support for generic CGI scripts and
796 programs, Java, Perl, PHP, and Python to the
797 scheduler. See the file "CGI.txt" for more
798 information.
d40085f1 799 - The CUPS API now supports HTTP cookies and the Expect:
800 field.
dd9e85de 801 - The cancel command now correctly supports the "-u
802 user" option to cancel all jobs for the named user.
803 - The Purge-Jobs operation now supports the my-jobs
804 boolean attribute and a new purge-jobs boolean
805 attribute to control whether job history data is
806 purged from the scheduler; the default is false for
807 my-jobs and true for purge-jobs to match the original
808 implementation.
b9e3e9a0 809 - The scheduler would not timeout printers when only
810 using SLP browsing.
a5ba1d82 811 - If the scheduler was unable to execute a filter, it
812 would try to restart the job indefinitely until the
813 filter could be executed.
a9bc43ad 814 - When writing BSD printcap files, the scheduler now
815 includes the rm and rp attributes, allowing the file
816 to be exported to LPD clients. [Patch from Dominic
817 Kubla]
3f2fa036 818 - The scheduler optimization to reference IPP attribute
819 data instead of performing a full copy caused problems
820 when the referenced data was deleted before it was
821 sent. It now only references attributes that change
822 only when the scheduler is restarted. The change also
823 reduced the memory footprint of a printer object to
824 2k.
825 - The scheduler now holds signals while logging messages
826 to avoid potential deadlock issues when handling
827 signals on Solaris 8.
b27fa031 828 - The lpadmin command now allows printer access control
829 by group name as well as user name.
7057d744 830 - "lpoptions -l" got in an infinite loop if no default
831 printer was available.
832 - The scheduler now logs the job-originating-host-name
833 attribute in the page_log file, and uses "-" for any
834 empty fields (patch from Dominik Kubla).
a0db7254 835 - The pdftops filter now scales PDF pages within the
836 printable area of the page.
b43f5fd7 837 - The pstops filter didn't include the page-label and
838 classification boxes when printing EPS or non-
839 conformant PS files.
209d6c49 840 - The imagetops filter didn't always correctly position
841 the image on the page when printing in landscape
842 orientation.
b3291c5a 843 - The ppdEmit() functions now support the
844 RequiresPageRegion attribute when sending InputSlot
845 and ManualFeed commands.
846 - The PPD loading code now supports standard options
847 outside of OpenUI/CloseUI as required by the PPD spec.
43cd52be 848 - The cupstestppd program has been upgraded to provide a
849 concise PASS/FAIL report, additional detailed
850 conformance testing, and support for gzip'd PPD files.
851 - The PPD loading code is now much more strict when
852 loading a PPD file, and tracks more format errors.
5a0aab69 853 - The scheduler ignored child signals when gathering the
854 list of available devices, when it should have been
855 using the default signal handler.
dc249e0d 856 - The cupsEncodeOptions() function could encode an
857 option with a NULL last string.
8b7032be 858 - The socket backend could report the wrong number of
859 backchannel bytes if an error occurred on the link.
33073884 860 - The cups-polld program now only sleeps after getting
861 all printers and classes. This allows for longer
862 intervals without excessive delays before classes show
863 up...
2e32fcdb 864 - Added a new httpWait() function to support waiting for
865 data for a specific number of milliseconds.
866 - httpGets() now times out after 1 second on
867 non-blocking HTTP connections.
bce0c833 868 - The scheduler no longer accepts rangeOfInteger values
869 that are out of order (e.g. 5-1)
870 - The sides attribute was incorrectly sent as a name
871 value; it is a keyword value.
67474245 872 - The IPP backend now detects if the destination queue
873 has gone away and reports an error.
2e32fcdb 874 - The scheduler and HTTP API now allocate their select()
875 sets to support larger numbers of clients on systems
876 that support it.
cc6d5b1e 877 - The scheduler now sets the CFProcessPath environment
878 variable under MacOS X.
879 - The cupsLangDefault() function now uses the
880 CoreFoundation localization API under MacOS X.
f353d925 881 - The httpSeparate() function didn't handle file URIs of
882 the form "file:///path" properly.
b2d75006 883 - The lpadmin command now supports a "protocol" option
884 for specifying the binary communications protocol to
885 use when printing binary PostScript data.
9c4b5e2e 886 - The scheduler did not properly parse the SystemGroup
887 directive, so only the first group would be used.
36992080 888 - Revamped how strings are stored in the scheduler,
889 providing a substantial improvement in memory usage
890 for systems with large numbers of printers.
610e4a98 891 - The PostScript filter now supports binary PostScript
2ddb40fe 892 files and files beginning with the PJL language escape
893 sequence.
49d1718a 894 - The PPD API now provides additional information from
895 the PPD file.
6a35dc4e 896 - The USB backend didn't compile on Solaris Intel.
98c2aef5 897 - The cupstestppd utility now supports the "-q" option
898 (quiet) for use in scripts, etc.
6db7190f 899 - Merged several weight-reducing changes into the CUPS
900 baseline donated by Apple.
dcfcaeac 901 - Added preliminary support for CDSA; patch provided by
902 Apple.
8bd0441f 903 - Implicit classes are now created from identical
904 printer classes on the network.
faa0f7b5 905 - The lp command now supports a "-H restart" option to
906 restart previously printed jobs. This functionality
907 only works if you have enabled the PreserveJobFiles
908 option.
909 - The scheduler now supports URIs in HTTP request lines
910 to conform to the HTTP/1.1 specification.
cb114623 911 - The time-at-xyz attributes were not recognized in
912 banner files if prefixed by a question mark, e.g.
913 "{?time-at-creation}".
a684a3b0 914 - Added support for pre-filtering application/pictwps
915 files on MacOS clients before sending them to a server
916 via IPP.
edd85093 917 - The scheduler now allows file:/dev/null device URIs
918 even if FileDevices is set to No.
7e3ba0af 919 - CUPS uses strerror() for hostname resolution errors,
920 when it should have used hstrerror().
273e40d6 921 - The USB backend no longer tries to guess the serial
922 number of a device from the USB devices file; this
923 means that printers that don't report their serial
924 numbers in the device ID string will not be
925 individually selectable.
d0598693 926 - The pstops filter didn't handle page ranges properly
927 when a page contained an embedded document.
cb114623 928 - Added a translation of the web interface to German.
96eae06b 929 - When printing using the OutputOrder=Reverse option
930 with duplexing, the output order is now truly
931 reversed; the order of sub-pages when printing N-up is
932 the same.
933 - The pstops filter did not always output the extra
934 blank page when printing a document with an odd number
935 of pages with duplexing enabled.
2d850885 936 - The ippAddXYZ functions no longer allow the
937 application to add less than 1 value.
5b28477f 938 - Fixed a URL rewrite bug in the web interface - local
939 access was sometimes redirected away from localhost...
256f3670 940 - The ppdOpen() functions could get in an infinite loop
941 if the PPD file contained a keyword or text that was
942 too large for the buffer.
bcf61448 943 - Added preliminary support for GNU TLS; patch provided
944 by Jeff Licquia.
aea6601a 945 - Now timeout IPP attribute reads after 1 second inside
946 an attribute definition.
de218675 947 - Now timeout connections that have been shutdown (due
948 to errors) after 30 seconds instead of the Timeout
949 setting (300 seconds by default). This provides
950 faster recovery from DoS attacks.
f0ad8cdc 951 - A denial-of-service attack warning message was being
952 written to the log files by the scheduler for every
953 detection. This caused a DoS of its own in some
954 situations. The warning message is now written no more
955 than once per minute.
67fa1315 956 - Fixed the CIE colorspace support code in the image and
957 PS RIPs.
320115a7 958 - The job-quota-period, job-page-limit, and job-k-limit
959 attributes were not flagged as integers, so setting
960 quotas would not work.
6e3d4276 961 - Added an additional response check in the scheduler to
962 more quickly recover from denial-of-service attacks.
963 - The cupstestppd file was incorrectly installed in the
964 /usr/sbin directory instead of /usr/bin.
965 - The EPM list file did not include the cupstestppd
966 program or man page files.
967
968
759f5023 969CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.18
970
e38a7cef 971 - Fixed a bug in the Set-Job-Attributes code in the
972 scheduler that would cause it to crash or continuously
973 write a job control file.
f63a430f 974 - SECURITY FIX: The scheduler now provides a FileDevice
975 directive to control whether new printers can be added
976 using device URIs of the form "file:/filename". The
977 default is to not allow printers with these device
978 URIs.
767ae392 979 - The scheduler did not compute the cost of filters
980 properly, nor did it choose a multi-filter solution
981 with a lower cost than a single filter solution.
00528abb 982 - Now install CUPS PPD file test utility (cupstestppd)
983 to support basic conformance testing of PPD files.
984 - The scheduler now logs an error message when it sees a
985 non-conforming PPD file.
ae65da6c 986 - Upgraded pdftops filter to Xpdf 2.01 with fixes for
987 TrueType fonts.
1060c9b6 988 - Added a MaxClientsPerHost configuration directive to
989 provide limited protection against Denial of Service
990 attacks.
901b295d 991 - SECURITY FIX: Potential underflow/overflow bug in web
992 interface.
993 - SECURITY FIX: Race condition in certificate creation.
994 - SECURITY FIX: Bad URIs in browse packets could be used
995 to exploint the web interface underflow/overflow bug.
901b295d 996 - SECURITY FIX: Some types of Denial of Service attacks
997 were not handled properly, so once the attack was over
998 the scheduler did not close the connections
999 immediately on all platforms.
099f4d77 1000 - SECURITY FIXES: Added integer overflow/underflow
1001 checks for all image formats.
9c1ee2b9 1002 - The pstops filter didn't reset the showpage operator
1003 back to its original at the end of a job; this
1004 prevented the concatenation of documents (used
1005 primarily for CUPS 1.2...)
0e66dba3 1006 - The cupsGetPPD() function didn't always set the
1007 cupsLastError() value when an error occurred.
daeeb91c 1008 - The IPP media, output-bin, and sides attributes took
1009 precedence over the corresponding PPD options, which
1010 caused inconsistent behavior under MacOS X with some
1011 PPD files.
dcc2e394 1012 - The cupsaddsmb utility specified the wrong number of
1013 arguments to the adddriver command when adding the
1014 Win9x PostScript drivers.
dd44d54e 1015 - The web interface did not always report the correct
1016 error message.
759f5023 1017 - The scheduler did not clear the POSIX signal action
1018 structure when waiting for the child to send it a
1019 SIGUSR1 signal; this could cause the signal handler
1020 not to be called properly, preventing the parent
1021 process from returning.
1022
1023
3cc7bca4 1024CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.17
1025
5c826e17 1026 - The "manual_copies" option did not work when the LPD
1027 backend had to retry a print job.
3c892427 1028 - The image filters did not convert GIF images properly.
2d21c1ef 1029 - The RunAsUser option was incompatible with the new
1030 daemon-mode code in 1.1.16.
2d5e06dd 1031 - Fixed a problem with the Set-Job-Attributes and
1032 PostScript job ticket code in the scheduler - the
1033 "last" attribute pointer was never updated, which
1034 could cause the scheduler to crash when applying job
1035 ticket data.
1036 - Fixed a problem in the scheduler that caused it to
1037 continue processing HTTP requests on a connection
1038 after it was shutdown.
3d6f3b2b 1039 - The scheduler now allows accounts authenticated via
1040 PAM to not have a corresponding UNIX account, but
1041 group membership still requires the account name to be
1042 listed in the UNIX group file(s)...
673d1710 1043 - The scheduler used a fixed-size (16k) buffer for
1044 encoding job options for filters; it now dynamically
1045 allocates and expands the buffer as needed depending
1046 on the options that are sent in a job.
8ee2dc56 1047 - The pdftops filter didn't support all of the MacOS
1048 characters for MacRoman encoded fonts.
a7cc258b 1049 - The cupsEncodeOptions() and cupsParseOptions()
1050 functions now conform to the grammer defined by the
1051 current draft of the PAPI specification. The main
1052 difference is that option=yes and option=no are no
1053 longer treated as boolean options.
7914a6a1 1054 - The IPP backend didn't honor the encryption settings
1055 in /etc/cups/client.conf.
dfac1292 1056 - Fixed a potential bug in the HTTP code which was
1057 caused by servers sending the status line and
1058 newline(s) in separate packets.
13f5eff6 1059 - User-defined classification strings are now printed
1060 verbatim - previously the classification box would be
1061 empty.
78143282 1062 - Re-added Spanish to the list of PPD languages that
1063 CUPS supports.
e0578e6e 1064 - CUPS API library user and temp file updates for
1065 Windows.
f33d1239 1066 - The image filters did not properly handle grayscale
1067 printing of Sun Raster images.
bf9e2a45 1068 - The scheduler never reset the NumJobs variable before
1069 loading the job list (previously this only happened on
1070 a full start, so the problem was never apparent...)
bdbaa675 1071 - The HTTP and IPP read/write code didn't handle EINTR
1072 (interrupted system call) errors.
1073 - When under high load, the scheduler could abort due to
1074 the wrong errno value after a select() call. This was
1075 caused by the child signal handler.
1076 - Added new load tests to the test target to verify that
1077 cupsd can handle hundreds of simultaneous jobs without
1078 error.
e1e31a38 1079 - The Solaris USB backend now supports the new device
1080 URI syntax.
7a1c86c5 1081 - The ppdOpen*() functions now reset the numeric locale
1082 settings while loading a PPD file.
b2fdde8d 1083 - Fixed the libtool build rules.
1084 - The manpage make rules didn't use $(MAKE) and
1085 $(MFLAGS) for the language subdirectories.
d0e4469d 1086 - Now set the LC_TIME locale category to get the
1087 properly localized time string.
549d1888 1088 - Fixed a problem in the scheduler that would cause the
1089 web interface problems when adding, modifying, or
1090 configuring a printer or class.
98904cd6 1091 - The backends now ignore SIGPIPE so that failed job
1092 filters will not stop a print queue.
d47f8ebe 1093 - The lpstat command did not allow for destination lists
1094 ("lpstat -v printer1,printer2")
1095 - Fixed parsing of long filter status messages in the
1096 scheduler.
1097 - Added some startup performance enhancements to the
1098 scheduler so that the printer object information is
1099 regenerated fewer times and the MIME type database is
1100 not filled with lots of empty filters for raw/direct
1101 queues.
854d3bb2 1102 - The LPD backend now sends the job title as the print
1103 filename.
137d4d44 1104 - Added support for variable sizes in the EPSON dot
1105 matrix printer drivers. This allows for pages as
1106 short as 1/2" (1 row of labels) and does not do an
1107 automatic form feed.
1108 - French translation updates.
e639fb32 1109 - The filters did not quote the page label string when
1110 embedding it in PostScript output.
3cc7bca4 1111 - The serial backend now enumerates serial ports under
1112 MacOS X.
1113 - The pdftops filter contained font rasterizer code that
1114 wasn't being used and that depended on X11. This code
1115 has been removed.
1116
1117
06415a96 1118CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.16
1119
727e6d14 1120 - The cancel and lprm commands now both display an error
1121 message and return a non-zero exit status if an
1122 attempt is made to cancel a job on a non-existent
1123 printer.
1124 - The lpoptions command incorrectly complained if a
1125 request to delete a non-existent printer was made.
807a1ef5 1126 - If the client.conf file defines an alternate server
1127 name, the "configure printer" action in the web
1128 interface might not work.
7cc9aebd 1129 - The lpstat command now supports a "-W" option so that
1130 you can display completed jobs as well as
1131 not-completed (pending) jobs.
a1ca1702 1132 - The lp and lpr commands did not return an error when
1133 one or more files in a set of files for printing could
1134 not be printed.
3b8ff70f 1135 - The lp, lpadmin, and lpstat commands now consistently
1136 return with a non-zero exit status when an error
1137 occurs.
db628f45 1138 - The scheduler would not accept print jobs sent to a
1139 stopped remote printer.
da1bfd3d 1140 - The texttops filter incorrectly converted the page
1141 numbers in the prettyprint header to double-byte
1142 characters when printing a non-Unicode text file. This
1143 caused an extra space to appear between each digit in
1144 the page number.
da312e94 1145 - The scheduler did not use a case-insensitive
1146 comparison when adding filters for a printer.
be8c3862 1147 - Upgraded the pdftops filter to Xpdf 1.01.
801766ac 1148 - The scheduler no longer passes the page-border and
1149 number-up-layout attributes to filters when printing
1150 banner pages.
25037b2b 1151 - The LPD backend now uses a 30-second timeout when
1152 sending commands and control files, and a 30-second
1153 timeout when retrieving responses from an LPD server.
1aef57ed 1154 If a timeout occurs, it retries indefinitely. This
25037b2b 1155 helps to make LPD printing over VPNs work more
1156 reliably.
a9219725 1157 - The USB backend now supports device URIs based on the
1158 printer serial number and/or model number under Linux.
1159 This avoids the "wrong device filename" problem when
1160 using more than one USB printer.
c3c5af5e 1161 - Now just shutdown the receiving end of a client
1162 connection when sending an error that requires the
1163 server to disconnect from the client afterwards. This
1164 fixes a problem when doing remote administration with
1165 encryption enabled.
b05809b0 1166 - The scheduler did not send a printer-state-message
1167 attribute if the string was empty; it now always sends
1168 this attribute. This caused the printer message to be
1169 displayed for other printers in the web interface.
04e01993 1170 - The LPD backend now supports a "manual_copies" option,
1171 e.g.: "lpd://server/queue?manual_copies=no", in order
1172 to handle copies for raw jobs to printers that don't
1173 implement the LPD protocol properly...
a05e4307 1174 - The "mirror" option was not being handled by the
1175 PostScript or image filters.
f7696015 1176 - Updated the cupsaddsmb command to support the new CUPS
1177 driver for Windows NT/2k/XP.
de659667 1178 - Filter status lines longer than 1023 characters could
1179 cause the scheduler to get into an infinite loop.
aa25b9e1 1180 - The scheduler didn't reset the job state to pending
1181 when modifying an active printer.
6ed689f8 1182 - Now limit the maximum number of recursion steps when
1183 searching for a filter for a job, in case a user
1184 defines a circular filter rule.
1185 - The PostScript filter would embed an invalid
1186 requirements comment in some cases.
56e9c951 1187 - Added support for embedded job tickets in PostScript
1188 files.
5ca43bfd 1189 - The PostScript filter now detects EPS files and should
1190 better handle printing EPS files.
5ae53c1e 1191 - The cancel command now ignores a trailing destination
1192 name when cancelling a specific job ID (Solaris
1193 compatibility).
879062a9 1194 - The scheduler now rejects jobs with copies outside the
da956953 1195 range of 1 to MaxCopies, inclusive.
1196 - Added new MaxCopies directive to set the maximum
1197 number of copies that a user can request.
879062a9 1198 - The scheduler didn't block signals while it processed
1199 others and when it forked processes.
5ae53c1e 1200 - The scheduler checked for new jobs to print when
1201 stopping a job. This caused jobs to restart before a
1202 shutdown.
098f80c5 1203 - Updated the CUPS startup script to better support
1204 different timezones and to support the RedHat/Mandrake
1205 init script functions, if available.
e426d516 1206 - The scheduler did not properly handle backslashes in
1207 banner files; it incorrectly assumed that "\c" should
1208 always be replaced by "c", instead of only looking for
1209 "\{" and replacing it by "{".
90ca6406 1210 - The texttops filter didn't handle prettyprint=no.
1211 - The text and HP-GL/2 filters didn't check for other
1212 common duplex option names like cupsMarkOptions() did.
c56db294 1213 - "lpoptions -x printer" no longer clears the "default
1214 printer" status of the printer.
3f1897d4 1215 - cupsTempFd() now stops trying to create a temporary
1216 file after 1000 tries, and aborts on any error other
1217 than EEXIST. This should prevent lp/lpr hangs due to
1218 a bad or missing temporary directory.
5a3ef28d 1219 - The lpadmin command did not send the right URI to the
1220 scheduler when setting options on classes. This
1221 caused a client-error-bad-request error.
e354b6e3 1222 - The CUPS API convenience functions would attempt to
1223 connect to the remote server name in a
1224 "printer@server" printer name instead of dealing with
1225 the default (usually local) server. Aside from
1226 causing user confusion, the remote server name might
1227 not be resolved properly, causing further problems.
f2320e2d 1228 - "lp -q" would cause the "lp" command to segfault, as
1229 the program would try to print the option letter that
1230 caused the error using the wrong index into the
1231 command-line; bugfix from Debian.
f2ffec40 1232 - Fixed a minor inconsistancy in the encoding of boolean
1233 attributes from printer options in
1234 cupsEncodeOptions().
42ede8a2 1235 - Added a FilterNice directive which sets the priority
1236 of job filter processes that are run by the scheduler.
93704f20 1237 - Added Solaris x86 USB printer support.
34f927d3 1238 - The USB backend now reports both the ulpt and unlpt
1239 devices under *BSD.
78ab59ae 1240 - The "lpstat -o" command would truncate the
1241 "printer-jobid" string if it was longer than 21
1242 characters.
1243 - The PJL-based MIME type rules now look in the first
1244 1024 bytes instead of just the first 512 bytes to find
1245 the language mode.
1246 - The image file types are now listed explicitly in the
1247 mime.convs file so that additional image file formats
1248 do not use the standard CUPS image filters by default.
1249 - Updated the Software Programmers Manual to include
1250 all of the CUPS API functions.
cefea041 1251 - ppdOpen*() no longer sorts choices for an option.
ce691c0f 1252 - The web interface now enforces constraints in PPD
1253 files when configuring a printer.
3733593d 1254 - When stopping a printer, the scheduler didn't set the
1255 printer state before stopping the current job.
a56289b6 1256 - The cupsaddsmb utility now lists all data files for
1257 Win9x and WinMe clients when installing that Windows
1258 driver.
997cf8b0 1259 - Jobs submitted to a class now bounce immediately to
1260 the next available printer rather than waiting until
1261 that printer is available.
1262 - Filters and backends now also get the CLASS
1263 environment variable set when a job is printed to a
1264 printer class instead of a normal printer.
1265 - Added French translations of the web interface, CUPS
1266 Overview, Software Administrators Manual, and Software
1267 Users Manual contributed by Marian REYT-LLABRES.
6b7de82f 1268 - Added several "hint" messages for common configuration
1269 problems that are stored in the error_log file.
1270 - httpSeparate() now unquotes %xx characters in the
1271 username:password field of a URI.
5fe35f41 1272 - When starting the scheduler in daemon mode, the parent
1273 process now waits for the child to signal it is ready
1274 to accept connections.
1275 - Added -F option to cupsd to run cupsd in the
1276 foreground but detach from the controlling terminal
1277 and current directory.
1278 - The scheduler did not reload jobs when receiving a HUP
1279 signal; this would cause problems since the pointers
1280 into the file type database would no longer be valid
1281 for existing jobs.
1282 - The scheduler did not save the network interface list
1283 update time, thus no caching of the network data was
1284 actually provided.
1285 - Updated the SuSE PAM configuration file.
9ba7fc54 1286 - The LPD backend now supports a "reserve" option and no
1287 longer reserves a priviledged port by default.
bdfe4c00 1288 - The cupsaddsmb command now continues past printers
1289 that do not have a PPD file to export.
19f699df 1290 - The lpstat command didn't treat printer names as
1291 case-insensitive.
1292 - The lpstat command now reports the printer location
1293 attribute with "lpstat -l -p".
c5488f2f 1294 - Fixed a bug in the vsnprintf() emulation function,
1295 which was used on old versions of HP-UX, IRIX, and
1296 Solaris.
b91c8a76 1297 - The number-up option was incorrectly being used when
1298 printing banner pages.
4f759211 1299 - Added support for Greek and Slovak PPD files.
aa37e40e 1300 - CUPS now supports printer names containing any
1301 printable character, e.g. "123-abc", "foo-bar", etc.
d958c5cf 1302 - The null filter was not supported in mime.convs due to
1303 a bug in the filter validation code.
3a74d6bf 1304 - Changes in the default printer and printer attributes
1305 were not always reflected in the generated printcap
1306 file.
8ce19460 1307 - Implicit classes did not inherit the location or
1308 description from member printers.
fabb006b 1309 - The httpGetHostByName() function did not handle
1310 hostnames that started with a number.
1f1822fd 1311 - Updated the filters to use the %cupsRotation comment
904eef76 1312 instead of %%Orientation to auto-rotate pages, since
1313 the use of %%Orientation is inconsistent.
d9e72533 1314 - Added the RootCertDuration directive to control how
1315 often the root authentication certificate is updated.
375a0ad5 1316 - Increased the size of the IPP write buffer to 32k to
1317 allow for larger attribute values and to provide more
1318 efficient output of large numbers of attributes.
7ed5d5f2 1319 - The polling daemon now retries the initial connection
1320 to the remote server; this fixes a problem when the
1321 remote server is unavailable when the scheduler starts
1322 up...
19e7b382 1323 - The scheduler didn't validate Digest users against the
1324 system group(s), so Digest and BasicDigest
1325 authentication didn't work for administration
1326 operations.
103abc03 1327 - The scheduler now passes the SHLIB_PATH environment
1328 variable to child processes (HP-UX shared libraries)
06415a96 1329 - The scheduler now maps accesses from the loopback
1330 interface to "localhost".
1331 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon sent a status code byte in
1332 response to queue state commands, but those commands
1333 only return textual data.
1334
1335
7680b71d 1336CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.15-1
1337
1338 - The lpc and lprm sources didn't include the CUPS
1339 string function header, which is required on systems
1340 that don't have their own snprintf() function.
1341 - The French manpage Makefile tried to install the
1342 language subdirectories when it (obviously) didn't
1343 have to.
1344
1345
74cfdb8b 1346CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.15
1347
dab1a4d8 1348 - Updated the CUPS license agreement for the new MacOS
1349 license exception.
611e4623 1350 - The printer-info attribute now defaults to the printer
1351 name if no value has been set.
52900e4c 1352 - ppdOpen() and friends now add an "Auto" InputSlot
1353 option if none is provided to automatically select the
1354 correct tray.
ed6078a4 1355 - Updated the ppdEmit() and ppdEmitFd() functions to
1356 (re)mark the correct PageSize or PageRegion option
1357 depending on the selected ManualFeed or InputSlot
1358 options.
1359 - ppdEmitFd() didn't handle custom page sizes.
1360 - Darwin uses <pam/pam_appl.h> instead of
1361 <security/pam_appl.h>.
fba7409c 1362 - The jobs.cgi web interface now handles all job
1363 operations, allowing the administrator to allow "job
1364 administrators" or operators to manage jobs (but not
1365 queues) on the server.
1366 - The cupsDoFileRequest() function now checks if the
1367 filename passed into the function is a directory, and
1368 returns the IPP_NOT_POSSIBLE error if so.
1369 - New SCSI printer backend.
a594463b 1370 - Cleaned up handling of locales with trailing character
1371 set definitions.
a319615f 1372 - Fixed handling of invalid PPD attributes inside
1373 OpenUI/CloseUI.
b92c5a4f 1374 - Fixed a problem with SSL and the job, printer, and
1375 admin CGIs on ports other than 443.
b47f3ce5 1376 - The scheduler didn't handle AuthClass properly.
e6fc9c68 1377 - Added French translation of man pages.
a8ee4682 1378 - Updated the text filter to support the const_cast,
1379 dynamic_cast, and static_cast keywords in ISO C++.
def978d5 1380 - Now use strlcat() and strlcpy() (or emulation
1381 functions) for easier string/buffer protection.
7b40ae49 1382 - The auto-generated printcap/printers.conf files now
1383 have a small comment header explaining where the file
1384 comes from...
6df23e27 1385 - The PostScript filter now supports 6, 9, and 16-up
ed6078a4 1386 output, as well as new page-border and
6df23e27 1387 number-up-layout options.
415199da 1388 - The lpoptions command didn't set options properly when
1389 using the default printer.
1390 - Added ConfigFilePerm and LogFilePerm directives.
1391 - Increased maximum size of MIME types to IPP_MAX_NAME
1392 to allow for longer printer names.
1393 - No longer create remote printers when loading job
1394 history data.
1395 - The printer-make-and-model attribute wasn't set when
1396 the PPD file didn't contain a NickName attribute.
1397 - Now handle PPD files with translation strings longer
1398 than 80 bytes - they are truncated if they go over...
c47e97cc 1399 - The scheduler didn't handle signals until after it
1400 loaded the configuration files the first time; this
1401 caused problems on some installations that would
1402 restart the scheduler as the system booted into run
1403 level 3.
1404 - Now throttle broadcasts like we do for polling.
0203af93 1405 - Fixed a bug in the reading of PPD files using CR's
1406 instead of CR LF's or LF's.
151718ce 1407 - The scheduler would crash if cupsd.conf contained a
1408 BrowseProtocols line with no protocols listed.
b05e8e24 1409 - The HTML job operation templates now link back to the
1410 destination printer or class.
69d74c4b 1411 - The serial backend now detects USB serial devices.
238bae16 1412 - The LPD mini-daemon (cups-lpd) now passes the
1413 job-originating-host-name attribute to the scheduler
1414 (cupsd).
a4e23897 1415 - Updated the IPP backend to reconnect after downgrading
1416 from IPP/1.1 to 1.0, and when sending requests to HP
1417 JetDirect interfaces that don't support HTTP
1418 Keep-Alive like they should.
1cf29e95 1419 - Now pass NLSPATH and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment
1420 variables, if defined, to CGI and job processes.
1421 - Removed the pstoraster filter (based on GNU
1422 Ghostscript 5.50) and now provide the raster "driver"
1423 and patch file necessary to use the current GNU
1424 Ghostscript 7.05 release.
1425 - Removed unnecessary fonts and updated the Courier and
1426 Symbol fonts to the latest versions to better support
1427 non-ISOLatin1 text.
1428 - The text filter now always embeds the Courier and
1429 Symbol fonts to ensure that they contain the full set
1430 of glyphs.
576b82ca 1431 - The lp and lpr commands now only override the SIGINT
1432 handler if it is not being ignored (patch from Robert
1433 Ambrose for some interactive software that catches
1434 SIGINT and will gracefully cancel the print...)
350807be 1435 - The PostScript image filter (imagetops) now supports
1436 printing CMYK images using the CMYK colorspace.
1437 - The image filters now support CMYK JPEG files, and
1438 correctly handles the inverted files from Photoshop
1439 (which seems to save RGBW data, not CMYK...)
e3bf38b3 1440 - Added a "check" target to the top-level makefile to
1441 conform with GNU standards (same as "test").
746265a5 1442 - The IPP code didn't always map the POSIX locale "C" to
1443 the proper IPP language code.
32f78676 1444 - The cupsaddsmb program was updated to use the
1445 setdriver command instead of addprinter.
934ef66d 1446 - Banner pages were not handled properly for implicit
1447 classes.
7200e26c 1448 - When tunneling to a remote system using SSH, the
1449 printer URIs for local printers on the remote system
1450 did not reflect the correct port number.
d7a9de63 1451 - The Allow, Deny, BrowseAllow, BrowseDeny, and
1452 BrowseAddress directives now support the network
1453 interface names "@LOCAL" and "@IF(name)" for access
1454 control and browsing based on the current interface
1455 addresses instead of fixed names or IP addresses.
2a55786c 1456 - The texttops filter did not properly recognize the
1457 "nowrap" (wrap=false) option.
83575f2d 1458 - The InstallableOptions group name in a PPD file is now
1459 translated separately (CUPS_MSG_OPTIONS_INSTALLED) so
1460 that UIs can accurately detect the presence of this
1461 group.
f4647930 1462 - The scheduler no longer keeps job history data for
1463 remote printers on the client (just on the server.)
4c2096b8 1464 - The parallel and USB backends now retry if the backend
1465 detects that the printer is not connected to the
1466 system (rather than stopping the queue...)
1467 - The network backends now retry if the backend detects
1468 that the printer is not connected to the network or is
1469 unreachable (rather than stopping the queue...)
c672a858 1470 - The cupsGetDests() function no longer lists options
1471 and instances for printers that no longer exist.
31e65f97 1472 - The scheduler now converts the document language to
1473 the correct LANG string.
8c47c4b4 1474 - The cupsaddsmb program now supports alternative CUPS
1475 and SAMBA server names.
40a0e1d1 1476 - The PostScript filter now supports the Orientation
1477 comment and rotates the page as needed automatically.
f915b00f 1478 - Revamped the makefiles slightly to use automatically
1479 generated dependencies.
1480 - Build fixes for OS X.
a1028786 1481 - The TIFF reading code depended on the newest version
1482 of libtiff; now conditionally compile that portion of
1483 the loader.
bbc1bfe5 1484 - The PPD code now decodes all JCL options in the
1485 JCLSetup group, not just those options that start with
1486 the prefix "JCL".
267cf96a 1487 - The backends now read print data using the read()
1488 system call to ensure that the current page is printed
1489 while the next page is being processed.
2f7be6ff 1490 - The pdftops filter did not support shading type 3
1491 (radial fill) for the "sh" operator.
dab1a4d8 1492 - The cups-polld program now throttles the local
1493 broadcasts of polled printers and classes so that the
1494 local system is not overwhelmed with hundreds of
1495 printers and classes all at once.
1496 - Updated the serial backend to support 230,400 baud for
1497 the Linux PPC port.
59168282 1498 - The cupsGetJobs() function wouldn't report completed
1499 jobs that did not have a document-format attribute
1500 value.
1c9c423b 1501 - The cupsEncodeOptions() function now maintains a table
1502 of known boolean and numeric options, and encodes all
1503 other options as strings.
f918a565 1504 - Now add a newline before the end-of-page code in the
1505 PostScript filter; this fixes a problem with files
1506 that don't end with a newline.
a28d12c5 1507 - The image filters looked for the "orientation" option
1508 instead of the correctly named "orientation-requested"
1509 option.
74cfdb8b 1510 - The cupsEncodeOptions() function now handles mixed
1511 integers and ranges.
1512 - New translation guide for developers to provide native
1513 language support for CUPS.
1514
1515
ee8b7dd3 1516CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.14
1517
843779ef 1518 - The ippRead() function did not verify that the
ba31b514 1519 attribute name length or string with language value
1520 was not larger than the read buffer.
e2943c5f 1521 - The scheduler set the signal handlers before loading
1522 the configuration files the first time; this prevented
1523 the RunAsUser directive from blocking server reloads.
5fd84fcc 1524 - Added Swedish message catalog.
0e1f4bec 1525 - The parallel backend now recognizes the /dev/printers
1526 device directory under Linux 2.4.x.
ba31b514 1527 - MacOS X fixes.
1528 - The cupsaddsmb utility sent the server name after the
1529 user information when executing the rpcclient program.
1530 This caused problems with some versions of SAMBA
1531 2.2.x.
ee8b7dd3 1532 - The IPP backend did not pass the requesting user name
1533 when checking on the print job status. This prevented
1534 it from waiting for the job to complete when
1535 communicating with some IPP implementations that
1536 require it.
1537
1538
d2503e02 1539CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.13
1540
28a96fe2 1541 - The lpstat command did not report jobs submitted to
1542 regular printer classes.
0f74081c 1543 - The texttops filter didn't use sufficient precision
1544 when positioning text with some values of cpi and lpi.
1545 This could cause the alignment of text to stray.
0ffae44c 1546 - cupsGetDests() didn't merge the options from the
1547 /etc/cups/lpoptions file with ~/.lpoptions - options
1548 in ~/.lpoptions overrode them completely.
1549 - Added support for KOI8-R and KOI8-U character sets,
1550 and added several Russian message catalogs.
bd726d0d 1551 - The scheduler put the wrong timezone offset in the log
1552 files (e.g. +0500 instead of -0500 for EST...)
1553 - The scheduler did not ignore trailing whitespace in
1554 *.convs files.
db911fcb 1555 - The scheduler now forces all processes to exit (kill
1556 -9) when it is stopped. This prevents parallel and
1557 USB devices from running in the background after cupsd
1558 goes away.
7c587866 1559 - The cupsParseOptions() function didn't skip trailing
1560 whitespace after quoted values.
c3026ddc 1561 - More changes to support CUPS on OS/2.
24e80caf 1562 - Added Simplified Chinese message catalog.
9495ba14 1563 - Added PAM support for IRIX.
c6e1ca5d 1564 - The cupsGetPPD() function didn't remove the @server
1565 portion of the printer name, and since it would
1566 connect immediately to the remote server instead of
1567 the local server, the printer would not be found.
8b8cca8e 1568 - Classification and page labels were not rotated to
1569 match the page orientation.
9ae34eb7 1570 - Now set the TCP "no delay" option on network
1571 connections to improve performance/response time.
1572 - Improved the IRIX printing tools support with patches
1573 from Andrea Suatoni.
1574 - Added a new PrintcapGUI directive to specify the GUI
1575 option panel program to use for the IRIX printing
1576 tools support.
1577 - The cupsGetDests() function did not check to see if a
1578 user-defined default printer (set via lpoptions) still
1579 existed.
1580 - The pstops filter no longer assumes that the default
1581 dictionary is writable when doing N-up processing.
bbfcd9c7 1582 - The pstops filter now supports printing N-up with the
1583 page-set option.
873a6f43 1584 - The imagetoraster filter now supports direct printing
1585 of CMYK image data without conversion/correction.
d1c2727f 1586 - The IPP backend now reports printer state/error
1587 conditions when possible (toner low, media empty,
1588 etc.)
bd73c81f 1589 - The lpstat command now supports the (undocumented)
1590 IRIX -l option ("-lprintername") for a compact job
1591 listing for a printer.
1592 - The lpstat command now includes printer date/time
1593 information in the output (always Jan 01 00:00) to
1594 make third-party tools happy.
18843e59 1595 - The text filter now supports non-integer cpi and lpi
1596 values.
dd5f3453 1597 - The Margins field in the CUPS raster header was not
1598 initialized by the pstoraster filter.
9aa1f763 1599 - Added --with-optim="flags" option to configure script.
1600 - Updated the Italian message translations.
1601 - Updated the cups.list file to install the correct
1602 files.
1603 - The pstoraster filter accessed the third element of a
1604 2 element array.
5f46b7d1 1605 - The scheduler did not setup a status pipe for polling
1606 processes, so error messages went to whatever file
1607 descriptor 2 was pointing to when they were started.
5fb5dab7 1608 - The httpMD5Final() function didn't put a colon between
1609 the password and nonce strings.
c5de57af 1610 - The pstops filter did not default to Binary data for
1611 "%%BeginData:".
4a7e6692 1612 - The pstops filter did not stop processing when a line
1613 containing a CTRL-D is seen.
aba2fa7e 1614 - The scheduler no longer replaces the JobSheets values
1615 from the printers.conf and classes.conf files with the
1616 classification level, if set. This way the original
1617 banner settings are preserved when classification
1618 levels are changed or turned off.
8d5eb22e 1619 - The serial backend didn't drain the output queue, nor
1620 did it restore the original settings.
d2503e02 1621 - Updated the default system group under MacOS X.
1622 - If no SystemGroup was defined in cupsd.conf, the
1623 system default group was not used.
1624 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now supports LPD clients that
1625 send multiple control files.
1626 - httpConnectEncrypt() now always uses encryption for
1627 connections on port 443, since port 443 is reserved
1628 for the "https" scheme.
1629 - Group authentication via certificates did not work
1630 from the web interface for accounts other than
1631 "root".
1632 - The serial port backend did not clear the OPOST
1633 option, which could cause problems with some printers.
1634 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon didn't lookup the client IP
1635 address properly.
1636 - The parallel backend now identifies the polled and
1637 interrupt-driven devices under *BSD.
1638 - The scheduler allowed the "always" encryption mode
1639 inside a Location, which is not valid.
1640 - The CUPS startup script now checks for the timezone
1641 information under Linux.
1642 - Now also map the sides attribute to the JCLDuplex
1643 option (if present) in PPD files.
1644 - Updated pdftops to Xpdf 0.93a.
1645 - Added support for MD5 passwords under Slackware.
1646 - Added new AuthType BasicDigest that does Basic
1647 authentication using the MD5 password file managed by
1648 the lppasswd command.
1649 - The banner page attribute substitution code now
1650 retains {name} sequences in banner files when the
1651 named attribute is undefined. Use {?name} to
1652 conditionally substitute an IPP attribute.
1653 - The scheduler now ensures that the ServerRoot
1654 directory and configuration files are owned by and
1655 writable by the User and Group in cupsd.conf.
1656 - The USB backend now lists all USB printer devices
1657 regardless of whether a printer is connected or not.
1658 This allows new USB printers to be connected without
1659 restarting cupsd.
1660 - Added some more minor performance tweeks to the IPP
1661 protocol code to reduce copying and array indexing.
1662 - The cupsaddsmb utility now uses the -c option with
1663 smbclient and rpcclient to avoid the read length limit
1664 for commands on the standard input.
1665 - Added an include file to the CRD handling code in
1666 pstoraster so that it would compile properly on 64-bit
1667 pointer platforms...
1668
1669
1670CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.12
1671
1672 - Added "Polish" to the list of known languages for PPD
1673 files.
1674 - Added missing directory definition to cups-config.
1675 - The CUPS-Move-Job operation did not set the
1676 destination type for the new destination.
1677 - The CUPS-Add-Printer operation did not support the
1678 allow=all or deny=none values to clear the per-user
1679 printer ACLs.
1680 - The SetPrinterAttrs() function did not handle invalid
1681 PPD files that were missing the required NickName
1682 attribute. It now looks for NickName, ModelName, and
1683 then substitutes the string "Bad PPD File" for the
1684 printer-make-and-model attribute.
1685
1686
1687CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.11
1688
1689 - Added support for embedded TrueType fonts in PDF
1690 files.
1691 - Added support for PostScript functions in PDF
1692 files.
1693 - Added new "cupsaddsmb" utility for exporting
1694 CUPS printer drivers to SAMBA/Windows clients.
1695 - Added preliminary support for Darwin/MacOS X.
1696 - The CUPS-Add-Printer operation no longer allows
1697 arbitrary scheme names in device URIs to be used - it
1698 now restricts the available schemes to those found in
1699 the device list (lpinfo -m).
1700 - The ippRead() and ipp_read_file() functions could not
1701 handle more than IPP_MAX_VALUES (100) values in a
1702 1setOf attribute. These functions have been updated
1703 to dynamically allocate more memory as needed, and the
1704 IPP_MAX_VALUES constant now represents the allocation
1705 increment. [this caused some versions of the
1706 GIMP-print drivers to fail since the number of media
1707 options exceeded 100...]
1708 - The scheduler could crash when BrowseShortNames
1709 was set to "No".
1710 - The scheduler did not prevent MaxClients from being
1711 set to 0, which could cause the scheduler to go in an
1712 infinite loop when accepting a request.
1713 - Made some performance optimizations in the ippRead()
1714 functions to make IPP request/response processing
1715 faster.
1716 - The accept/reject/enable/disable command did not
1717 support properly support the "-h" or default
1718 server name.
1719 - The scheduler did not save the quota configuration
1720 when the job-quota-period attribute was set to 0.
1721 - The LPDEST and PRINTER environment variables did not
1722 support printer instances.
1723 - The text filter now handles more types of boldface and
1724 underline formatting.
1725 - The cupsTempFd() function did not fail if the
1726 temporary directory did not exist; this would cause it
1727 to loop indefinitely instead of returning an error
1728 (-1).
1729 - Stopping (disabling) a printer class did not stop jobs
1730 from printing to printers in that class.
1731 - The cupsGetDests() function was sending the
1732 requested-attributes attribute as a name instead of a
1733 keyword; this caused a serious performance problem on
1734 slower systems since more information had to be
1735 transferred from server to client.
1736 - The web interfaces did not always quote < and & in
1737 things like the job title. This had the potential for
1738 browser-based security violations (on the browser's
1739 machine); bug report from SuSE.
1740 - The scheduler now treats unauthenticated usernames as
1741 case-insensitive when doing quota and allow/deny
1742 processing.
1743 - The lp command sent the "request ID is ..." message
1744 to stderr instead of stdout...
1745 - The PostScript filter (pstops) now handles EPS files,
1746 adding a showpage command to the files as needed.
1747 - The configure script checked for the <stdlib.h> header
1748 file before the JPEG libraries; since the JPEG headers
1749 can define HAVE_STDLIB_H, the configure check would
1750 cause the JPEG check to fail on some systems.
1751 - The scheduler now supports localized banner files,
1752 using the subdirectory approach, e.g. the "es"
1753 subdirectory under /usr/share/cups/banners is used for
1754 the Spanish banner files.
1755 - Updated the scheduler so it knows the correct
1756 language abbreviation to use for all supported
1757 PPD LanguageVersion values. The new code also
1758 supports country codes as well, so "English-GB"
1759 maps to the "en_GB" locale.
1760 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon did not support
1761 anonymous printing (no username specified).
1762 While the username is REQUIRED by RFC-1179,
1763 MacOS clients do not send the REQUIRED username
1764 information when printing via LPD.
1765 - Added many warning and informational messages
1766 to cups-lpd where they were missing.
1767 - Added Czech message file contributed by SuSE.
1768 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now returns a non-zero
1769 status if an invalid destination or job ID is
1770 provided.
1771 - The scheduler did not honor the KeepAlive setting in
1772 cupsd.conf.
1773 - Increased the size of the file read/write buffers to
1774 32k.
1775 - *BSD static library creation fixes.
1776 - Use mkstemps() instead of tmpnam() in pdftops whenever
1777 possible.
1778 - Added httpGetHostByName() function as a wrapper around
1779 gethostbyname() - some implementations of this
1780 function do not support IP addresses (e.g. MacOS X.)
1781 - Added casts to all printf's of file lengths, since
1782 there is currently no standard way of formatting long
1783 long values.
1784 - The client filename field was not cleared in all
1785 instances, resulting in old form data being submitted
1786 to CGIs.
1787 - The httpConnect*() functions now try all available
1788 addresses for a host when connecting for the first
1789 time.
1790 - The pstoraster filter would "lose" all drawing
1791 commands when the PageSize was set but the printer
1792 bitmap was not reallocated. This was most noticeable
1793 with the output from StarOffice 6 beta and would
1794 result in a blank page being output...
1795 - The IPP backend was sending a PAGE comment even when
1796 printing the output from a filter (it should only send
1797 page comments when printing files directly...)
1798 - The pdftops filter didn't properly map glyph names of
1799 embedded Asian TrueType fonts.
1800 - Changed the CUPS startup script to look for a program
1801 named "cupsd", not just any program with "cupsd" in
1802 the name (this caused the apcupsd UPS monitoring
1803 daemon to be stopped/restarted...)
1804 - The CUPS-Move-Job operation did not change the
1805 internal destination name for held jobs, so moved (but
1806 held) jobs would still show up as queued on the
1807 original destination.
1808 - The cups-polld program didn't send the
1809 requested-attributes attribute in the
1810 CUPS-Get-Printers and CUPS-Get-Classes requests, which
1811 made it use more CPU and bandwidth than required.
1812 - The scheduler and CUPS API incorrectly added a
1813 job-sheets-default attribute for remote printers. This
1814 caused banner pages to be omitted from client system
1815 prints.
1816
1817
1818CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.10-1
1819
1820 - Minor fixes to the filter, systemv, and template
1821 makefiles to install files properly.
1822
1823
1824CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.10
1825
1826 - Added a driver for DYMO label printers.
1827 - Added new ClassifyOverride directive to allow users
1828 to override the classification of individual jobs.
1829 - Added new BrowseProtocols directive to control which
1830 browse protocols are used (currently CUPS and SLP).
1831 - Added SLPv2 support (thanks to Matt Peterson for
1832 contributing the initial implementation for CUPS.)
1833 - Adding a raw printer on a remote CUPS server now
1834 correctly redirects PPD file requests to the remote
1835 server.
1836 - The serial backend now limits writes to 1/10th
1837 second worth of data to avoid buffer overflows
1838 with some types of flow control.
1839 - The scheduler did not properly process PUT requests,
1840 so configuration files could not be uploaded to the
1841 server.
1842 - The scheduler did not strip trailing whitespace on
1843 lines in the configuration files.
1844 - The httpWrite() function did not transition the PUT
1845 request to the HTTP_STATUS state to get the status
1846 from the server.
1847 - The scheduler did not properly handle trailing null
1848 ("-") filters when testing a driver that sent data
1849 to the file: pseudo-backend.
1850 - The IPP backend now only sends a document-format of
1851 "application/vnd.cups-raw" when printing to another
1852 CUPS server using a local printer driver or interface
1853 script. Previously the job's document format was
1854 used, which was incorrect.
1855 - The lpadmin command didn't use the ppd-name attribute
1856 with the -m option; this prevented the use of the
1857 "raw" model from the command-line.
1858 - The pstoraster filter output draft (1-bit) 6-color
1859 output in the wrong order; this resulted in yellow
1860 being printed instead of black on Stylus Photo
1861 printers.
1862 - The pdftops filter did not have the Japanese and
1863 Chinese text support compiled into it.
1864 - The IPP and AppSocket backends did not clear the
1865 "waiting for print job to complete" status message,
1866 which caused some confusion... :)
1867 - The serial backend now opens the port in "no delay"
1868 mode to avoid DCD detection problems with some OS's.
1869
1870
1871CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.9-1
1872
1873 - The configure script did not substitute the
1874 correct user and group names.
1875 - The configure script did not use the full path
1876 to the install-sh script when it was used.
1877 - The pstoraster filter did not correctly support
1878 DuplexTumble mode for printers that used flip
1879 duplexing.
1880 - The cups.list.in file was missing from the
1881 distribution.
1882 - The New DeskJet series driver did not use the
1883 correct OrderDependency for the Duplex option.
1884 - Use read() instead of fread() to read piped
1885 print files in lpr/lp. This avoids a bug in the
1886 HP-UX 10.20 fread() function.
1887 - Updated the pstoraster filter to use the MIPS_FIXADE
1888 system call under IRIX to fix bus error problems on
1889 R12000 processors (Ghostscript is not 64-bit clean...)
1890 - Some Xerox PPD files (most notably the Phaser 790)
1891 have illegal whitespace in the option keyword in the
1892 OpenUI line. This caused the PageRegion option to not
1893 be recognized properly for the Phaser 790.
1894
1895
1896CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.9
1897
1898 - Revamped the configure script to use a modular
1899 approach for the various tests.
1900 - Added --with-openssl-* options to properly reference
1901 the OpenSSL libraries in DSOs.
1902 - Added --with-cups-user and --with-cups-group
1903 options to specify the default user and group for
1904 CUPS.
1905 - Added AIX shared library support.
1906 - Added AIX device discovery for the serial and
1907 parallel ports.
1908 - Now use install program or script to install
1909 directories, files, and symlinks.
1910 - Updated pstops filter to use strict handling of EPS
1911 files embedded in a PostScript document. The %%EOF
1912 handling in 1.1.8 caused some dvips files not to
1913 print.
1914 - Fixed yet another memory allocation bug in pstoraster
1915 that would cause it to crash. This fix also ensures
1916 that all memory allocations are done on (at least) a
1917 64-bit boundary.
1918 - Fixed Digest authentication - httpGetSubField() didn't
1919 skip the Digest keyword.
1920 - The scheduler did not properly handle Digest
1921 authentication with the new multiple-group support.
1922 - The scheduler did not allow usernames that were
1923 not in the UNIX password file to be used for Digest
1924 authentication from passwd.md5.
1925 - The scheduler could not scan PPD files that only used
1926 a carriage return (i.e. MacOS PPD files); the new code
1927 is also about 40% faster, so servers with thousands of
1928 PPD files should start much faster now.
1929 - The scheduler now stores the PPD file size and
1930 modification times in the ppds.dat file, so it can now
1931 incrementally update the PPD database from the model
1932 directory, resulting in significantly faster startup
1933 times.
1934 - The lpinfo command did not return a non-zero status
1935 code if an error occurred.
1936 - Fixed a bug in the scheduler's UpdateJob() function.
1937 Basically, all jobs shared the same status buffer, and
1938 the "buffer start" pointer could point to 1 byte
1939 before the beginning of the buffer. The new
1940 implementation uses a separate buffer for each job and
1941 eliminates the buffer start bug.
1942 - The IPP backend would send N copies of a document if
1943 the receiving device didn't support the copies
1944 attribute, even if the upstream driver already added
1945 the necessary commands to generate the copies. This
1946 was most noticeable with HP printers where N * N
1947 copies would come out instead of N.
1948 - The PostScript filter (pstops) did not properly handle
1949 duplex printing on inkjet printers that provide this
1950 option. Copies would be put on the front and back
1951 sides of the duplexed page, and the filter did not
1952 output an even number of pages.
1953 - The backends always caught SIGTERM after they
1954 connected to the printer. This prevented raw jobs
1955 from being cancelled early.
1956 - The cupsSetDests() function now removes any printers,
1957 instances, and options that are not defined by the
1958 user or server. This should prevent old system-wide
1959 options from being used in individual user accounts.
1960 - Updated the EPSON printer driver and added PPDs for
1961 the newer EPSON Stylus printers that only support the
1962 "ESC i" graphics command.
1963 - The lpadmin command didn't allow you to add remote
1964 printers to a local class.
1965 - The lpadmin command didn't allow you to set the
1966 options (quotas, etc.) for a class.
1967 - The scheduler did not load or save the
1968 job-sheets-default attribute for classes.
1969 - The scheduler did not automatically recreate remote
1970 printers that were part of a class.
1971 - It was possible for a printer class to list the same
1972 printer more than once.
1973 - The scheduler now makes a backup copy of classes.conf
1974 and printers.conf before writing the new file.
1975 - The lppasswd program incorrectly asked for a new
1976 password when deleting an existing MD5 password
1977 account.
1978 - The scheduler did not match "/printers/name.ppd"
1979 against a location of "/printers/name".
1980 - The client code did not always handle HTTP encryption
1981 upgrades properly.
1982 - The client code now caches the last Digest password so
1983 it can retry using a new resource path or nonce value,
1984 which are included in the MD5 sum sent to the server.
1985 This should eliminate unnecessary password prompts
1986 when using Digest authentication.
1987 - The lppasswd command didn't have a man page.
1988 - Updated the PJL detection rules to allow the universal
1989 escape to occur anywhere in the first 128 bytes of the
1990 file.
1991 - The cups-polld program would poll servers continuously
1992 with no delay if there was an error contacting the
1993 server.
1994 - The IPP backend would send an empty job-name or
1995 requesting-user-name attribute if the corresponding
1996 job attribute was an empty string. While this is
1997 allowed by the IPP specification, some HP JetDirect
1998 implementations return a client-error-bad-request
1999 error if an empty name attribute value is received.
2000 The new code only sends these attributes if they are
2001 not the empty string.
2002 - At least some versions of the HP JetDirect firmware
2003 do not correctly implement IPP. Added additional
2004 checks to the IPP backend to eliminate extra,
2005 unsupported attributes which should normally be
2006 ignored by a compliant IPP device.
2007 - The scheduler did not copy the complete list of
2008 supported file types into the
2009 document-format-supported attribute. This caused
2010 clients to not send the local file type (such as
2011 application/vnd.cups-raw for raw print files) and the
2012 corresponding bad output in some cases.
2013 - The scheduler did not fully copy attributes from a
2014 set-job-attributes request - string attributes were
2015 only referenced, which could cause cupsd to crash
2016 or behave irratically.
2017 - The lp command didn't send the right value for the
2018 job-hold-until attribute when "-H resume" was
2019 specified.
2020 - The IPP backend now returns as soon as a job is
2021 completed or reported as "pending-held".
2022 - Added new ImplicitAnyClasses and HideImplicitMembers
2023 directives to the cupsd.conf file to make implicit
2024 classes more usable/transparent to the user.
2025 - Clients can now (with the appropriate authentication)
2026 retrieve and update the server configuration files
2027 using HTTP GET and PUT requests.
2028 - The web interface didn't allow you to modify the
2029 location or description of the printer.
2030 - The pdftops filter now uses its own temporary file
2031 function to work with PDF files using LZW compression
2032 (which use the uncompress program or gunzip)
2033 - The SystemGroup directive now supports specification of
2034 multiple groups.
2035 - Added new Include directive to cupsd.conf, a la
2036 Apache.
2037 - Added new pseudo-driver/PPD called "raw" that can be
2038 used to create/convert a raw queue. This also allows
2039 raw queues to be created in the web interface.
2040 - The pdftops filter didn't handle image objects that
2041 used JPEG and Flate compression together.
2042 - The pstops filter counted pages wrong when using the
2043 N-up and even/odd printing options. This prevented
2044 the page-ranges option from working properly.
2045 - Added another fix to pstoraster for a bus error
2046 condition caused by a lack of parenthesis in the
2047 Ghostscript code.
2048 - Added new "natural-scaling" option which scales the
2049 natural size of the image (percent of natural image
2050 size instead of percent of page size.)
2051 - The lppasswd program is now setuid to the CUPS user
2052 instead of root.
2053 - The PPD functions did not allow for PPD files that
2054 defined the page sizes and margins before the page
2055 size options.
2056 - The mime.types file now checks for the PJL "LANGUAGE =
2057 Postscript" command for PostScript files.
2058 - The scheduler did not truncate file: output files.
2059 - The PPD file reading code did not handle options with
2060 raw quotes (") in the human-readable names.
2061 - The pdftops filter now remaps the space character when
2062 (bad) PDF files contain a .notdef glyph for the space
2063 character.
2064
2065
2066CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.8
2067
2068 - Updated spec file to generate separate cups-pstoraster
2069 package for pstoraster.
2070 - The spec file wasn't setting LOGDIR in the install.
2071 - The scheduler might restart a stopped printer after
2072 stopping a print job. Thanks to Florent
2073 Guiliani for finding this bug!
2074 - The init script showed run level 0 for the Red Hat
2075 chkconfig program. This is incorrect because Red Hat
2076 doesn't use run level 0 for shutdown scripts.
2077 - The IPP backend did not handle the
2078 client-error-not-found error when checking the status
2079 of the job that was sent. This caused remote queues
2080 to stop on client machines when the server had job
2081 history disabled.
2082 - Added httpConnectEncrypt() function to avoid
2083 performance penalty for setting up encrypted
2084 connections initially.
2085 - Use httpConnectEncrypt() in all client apps and in the
2086 CUPS API to ensure consistent usage of encryption
2087 throughout.
2088 - Jobs weren't queued to remote classes (fix from
2089 Richard Begg.)
2090 - AIX changes from Richard Begg.
2091 - Fixed the pstops fix for GNOME output - no longer use
2092 the page numbers in the %%Page: comment since GNOME
2093 puts a filename instead (!?@!#?!). There is still an
2094 issue with N-up printing since GNOME defines its fonts
2095 in the first page instead of the document setup section
2096 (pages must be independent according to the DSC spec)
2097 People with GNOME printing problems should consult bug
2098 #54489...
2099 - The imagetops filter produced PAGE: messages when
2100 generating PostScript for a non-PostScript printer
2101 (only affects page-label and Classification
2102 options.)
2103 - The updated pdftops filter was looking for an options
2104 file called xpdf.conf instead of pdftops.conf.
2105
2106
2107CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.7
2108
2109 - Configuration script changes, including new
2110 "--with-docdir=/dir" option to relocate CUPS
2111 documentation and web content according to your
2112 favorite version of the FHS.
2113 - Documentation updates for encryption, SLP, etc.
2114 - New Software Test Plan and automated test script to
2115 test CUPS prior to installation.
2116 - All scheduler configuration files are now case
2117 insensitive to match Apache.
8372ad6b 2118 - Added support for Apache ListenBackLog, Require,
2119 Satisfy, <Limit>, <LimitExcept>, and LimitRequestSize
d2503e02 2120 directives.
2121 - Added support for all Apache log levels...
2122 - Added support for "double" HostNameLookups.
2123 - Added new "RunAsUser" directive to support non-root
2124 configurations on the standard (priviledged) ports.
2125 - Added support for non-root invocation of the lpd
2126 backend (does no reserve a priviledged port, which
2127 might not work with some LPD servers...)
2128 - Added new PrintcapFormat directive to control the
2129 output format of the printcap file (BSD or Solaris
2130 formats are supported at present.)
2131 - The CUPS directory service routines now handle
2132 ECONNREFUSED errors gracefully rather than shutting
2133 all browsing off.
2134 - ippErrorString() now returns the recommended error
2135 messages from the IPP/1.1 Model and Semantics
2136 document.
2137 - Fixed a minor IPP compliance issue with responses
2138 to requests without the attributes-charset or
2139 attributes-natural-language attributes.
2140 - Sun fix: need httpFlush() call for chunked IPP
2141 requests in cupsDoFileRequest().
2142 - httpConnect() now looks up "localhost" by name and
2143 by address (127.0.0.1) for users the go to the
2144 trouble of removing the required localhost entry
2145 in /etc/hosts or on their DNS server...
2146 - Added support for Linux 2.4.x devfs parallel port
2147 filenames (/dev/parallel/N).
2148 - cupsDo[File]Request() and cupsGetPPD() no longer
2149 block trying to reconnect to a crashed or inaccessable
2150 server.
2151 - Added new ppdEmitJCL() function to better handle
2152 PJL commands from PPD files.
2153 - A bug in UpdateJob() would cause the scheduler to
2154 consume 100% CPU until another request was submitted.
2155 - The cancel command did not support the "-" option to
2156 cancel all jobs on all printers.
2157 - The cancel and lprm commands did not support cancelling
2158 the next/current job in the queue.
2159 - The pdftops and pstoraster filters were using unsafe
2160 temporary file functions; while this is not a problem
2161 in normal configurations (the CUPS temporary directory
2162 is restricted), they now use the cupsTempFd() function.
2163 - The mime.types file was missing the recognition rule
2164 for Sun Raster images.
2165 - The admin CGI was passing a printer make string to
2166 ippSetCGIVars() that was being replaced in that
2167 function.
2168 - "lpoptions -l" would resave the options...
2169 - The EPSON drivers now send the "end packet mode"
2170 command when printing to USB devices.
2171 - The scheduler initialized certificates before loading
2172 the cupsd.conf file.
2173 - The scheduler used /dev/random to collect random data,
2174 which could block if insufficient entropy information
2175 had been collected by the kernel. Now use
2176 /dev/urandom.
2177 - Fixed a bug in the whitespace skipping code in
2178 httpGetSubField().
2179 - The LPD backend now supports a new "order" option:
2180 "lpd://server/queue?order=control,data" (default) and
2181 "lpd://server/queue?order=data,control".
2182 - The scheduler enforced a 30 second timeout on all
2183 clients regardless of the Timeout directive and if a
2184 CGI was currently running.
2185 - cupsParseOptions() now sets boolean options to
2186 option=true or option=false.
2187 - The "percent complete" calculations in the LPD backend
2188 could overflow on large files, causing the percentage
2189 to wrap to 0 every 40MB or so.
2190 - Fixed a memory reallocation bug in pstoraster that
2191 could cause it to crash.
2192 - The LPD backend now sanitizes the job title to avoid
2193 potential problems on remote LPD servers.
2194 - The lp command did not send the requesting-user-name
2195 attribute when altering a job.
2196 - The pstops filter did not handle PostScript files with
2197 lines longer than 8191 bytes.
2198 - The scheduler no longer uses inet_addr() to convert IP
2199 addresses in dot format (mmm.nnn.ooo.ppp) to the
2200 32-bit format, since it will not work for IPv6
2201 addresses.
2202 - New "Classification" directive to force labeling of
2203 the current classification on each page.
2204 - New "page-label" attribute to add per-page labels
2205 ("For Official Use Only", "Draft", etc.)
2206 - The scheduler now sets the HTTPS environment variable
2207 for CGI programs when a client connects using
2208 encryption.
2209 - Fixed a recursion bug in the scheduler that could
2210 cause cupsd to crash when a printer was removed.
2211 - The LPDEST and PRINTER environment variables didn't
2212 support instances.
2213 - Dropped the "file" backend from the device list that
2214 is reported, since it is only available for *testing*
2215 and should never be used in a production environment.
2216 The file: device can still be used, but it won't show
2217 up in the list of devices from lpinfo or the web
2218 interface.
2219 - Added support for /dev/lpa# parallel ports under *BSD.
2220 - Added META variables to the CGI header template to
2221 prevent caching of the results.
2222 - Fixed an unaligned memory buffer for the pstoraster
2223 clist states; this caused bus errors for some
2224 combinations of printers, drivers, and options.
2225 - Re-added black reduction for colorful colors; this
2226 helps to prevent dark colors from getting desaturated.
2227 (only used when converting RGB to CMYK)
2228 - Added two new directives - MaxJobsPerPrinter and
2229 MaxJobsPerUser - to allow an administrator to set
2230 the maximum number of pending jobs in a queue or
2231 submitted by a user.
2232 - The scheduler no longer stops a printer if it can't
2233 create the status pipe or run the filters or backend.
2234 This will allow heavily loaded servers to service
2235 clients or start print jobs as the load allows.
2236 - Fixed a bug in the Set-Job-Attributes code that could
2237 crash the scheduler (patch from Martin Zielinski)
2238 - cupsSetDests() did not quote option values with
2239 embedded spaces.
2240 - Added support for the Enable-Printer and
2241 Disable-Printer extension operations (same as
2242 CUPS-Accept-Jobs and CUPS-Reject-Jobs.)
2243 - The AppSocket and IPP backends now wait for the print
2244 job to be finished before exiting; this should prevent
2245 the loss of print jobs with older JetDirect firmware
2246 and make consecutive print jobs print faster.
2247 - The BMP loading code did not handle resolution values
2248 of 0. This is a problem with BMP image files produced
2249 by the GIMP.
2250 - The HTTP Upgrade code (upgrade to TLS encryption)
2251 bypassed the authentication checks.
2252 - The HTTP Upgrade code did not send a 426 status code
2253 to the client and end the current request. This caused
2254 a race condition between the client and server for the
2255 upgrade to TLS.
2256 - Fixed a bug in the EOF and Trailer detection code in
2257 the pstops filter.
2258 - The imagetoraster filter did not add the margins to
2259 the custom page size in the raster header.
2260 - The imagetops filter did not adjust the custom page
2261 size to the size of the printed image.
2262 - The imagetops filter did not include DSC comments
2263 which are required by some printers.
2264 - The imagetops filter did not insert newlines in
2265 Base85 encoded output, causing files to contain
2266 lines longer than 255 characters (violation of the
2267 DSC).
2268 - Added support for the DeskJet 900 series duplexer
2269 and CRET color modes in the HP driver.
2270 - Added support for PPD-defined margins in the HP
2271 driver.
2272 - Fixed the debugging output from pstoraster - the
2273 font list was not terminated by a newline.
2274 - Some versions of the HP-UX pam_unix authentication
2275 module apparently do not pass the appdata_ptr argument
2276 to the conversation function, preventing the scheduler
2277 from authenticating users using PAM under HP-UX. A
2278 workaround using a static variable has been added to
2279 address this problem.
2280 - Fixed a bug in the scheduler SortPrinters() function
2281 that could cause printers to disappear or the
2282 scheduler to crash when adding a printer.
2283 - Changed the pstops filter to not do per-page filtering
2284 if the file does not conform to at least version 3.0
2285 of the document structuring conventions. This seems
2286 to "fix" printing with broken apps.
2287 - The image filters did not handle older TIFF files that
2288 lacked the samples-per-pixel and bits-per-pixel tags.
2289 - Added new cupsGetJobs() and cupsFreeJobs() functions
2290 to manage print jobs.
2291 - cupsEncodeOptions() would encode names of 0 length and
2292 cupsAddOption() and cupsParseOptions() would add names
2293 of 0 length.
2294 - The scheduler might block waiting for status messages
2295 after starting a new print job. Thanks to Florent
2296 Guiliani for finding this bug!
2297
2298
2299CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.6-3
2300
2301 - The configure script put the JPEG library before the
2302 TIFF library; this caused problems in some
2303 configurations since the TIFF library also supports
2304 JPEG compression of TIFF images.
2305 - Updated the configure script and makefiles to handle
2306 admin man pages with the "1m" extension (HP-UX, IRIX,
2307 Solaris, Tru64) and in odd directories (IRIX)
2308 - The updated cupsTempFile() function did not return
2309 the filename when called with a filename buffer of
2310 NULL (previously it used a static buffer.)
2311 - FreeBSD uses /dev/unlptN, but NetBSD and OpenBSD use
2312 /dev/ulptN.
2313 - DeletePrinter() didn't remove the printer from any
2314 classes it was a member of.
2315 - DeletePrinterFromClass() didn't preserve the
2316 implicit status of a class.
2317 - DeletePrinterFromClasses() didn't remove printers
2318 from implicit classes.
2319 - StartJob() didn't send the job-sheets, job-priority,
2320 and job-hold-until attributes to remote printers.
2321 - LoadAllJobs() was looking for job-sheets-completed
2322 instead of job-media-sheets-completed. This would
2323 prevent accumulation of page data after a restart
2324 of the scheduler.
2325 - The pstops and imagetops filters now generate copies
2326 using the appropriate method for a Level 1, 2, or 3
2327 printer since some Level 2/3 printers don't support
2328 the /#copies variable anymore.
2329 - The man page for cups-lpd did not mention the "-o"
2330 option.
2331 - The IPP backend didn't handle version-not-supported
2332 errors and revert to IPP/1.0 (previously it only checked
2333 for a bad-request error)
2334 - Caldera fix: lpc now reports unimplemented commands as
2335 unimplemented, not invalid.
2336 - Caldera fix: lpq didn't recognize BSD lpq "-a" option.
2337 - Caldera fix: lpr didn't recognize BSD lpr "-1", "-2",
2338 "-3", "-4", "-q", or "-U" options.
2339 - RedHat fixes: patches to GNU Ghostscript
2340 - SuSE fix: temp file creation patch to GNU Ghostscript
2341 (pstoraster).
2342 - SuSE fix: remove cgi-bin/abort.c and cgi-bin/email.c,
2343 which are not used.
2344 - SuSE fix: missing NULL check in cgi_initialize_post().
2345 - SuSE fix: potential buffer overflows in
2346 cgi_initialize_string().
2347 - SuSE fix: potential buffer overflows in
2348 ippSetCGIVars()
2349 - SuSE fix: more NULL checks in ppdOpen(); also make
2350 sure that all memory is freed on error to avoid memory
2351 leaks.
2352 - SuSE fix: Exit from child if setgid() or setuid()
2353 fails.
2354 - SuSE fix: Added setgroups() calls after setgid() and
2355 setuid() calls.
2356 - SuSE fix: potential buffer overflows in httpEncode64()
2357 calls.
2358 - SuSE fix: potential buffer overflows in httpSeparate()
2359 - SuSE fix: potential buffer overflows in ippWrite() for
2360 bad input.
2361 - SuSE fix: potential nul skip in ppd_decode() for
2362 missing hex digits.
2363
2364
2365CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.6-2
2366
2367 - Added changes to support NetBSD startup scripts.
2368 - Added separate compiler options for pstoraster
2369 (Ghostscript) to avoid compiler-induced errors
2370 from Ghostscript's twisted code.
2371 - The mime.types file contained syntax errors.
2372 - Updated the *BSD USB device filenames to use
2373 the /dev/unlptN files so that the USB device
2374 is not reset prior to printing (causes print
2375 corruption on many printers)
2376 - Added new cupsTempFd() function to avoid serious
2377 security bug in glibc fopen() function. The glibc
2378 fopen() function unlinks a file before creating it,
2379 which opens up possible symlink attacks.
2380 - Now reject 0-length names in add-printer and add-class
2381 requests.
2382 - Fix for pstoraster when ZLIB is not available.
2383 - cupsGetPPD() didn't reconnect when a HTTP connection
2384 was lost.
2385 - SuSE fix: httpConnect() didn't check that the
2386 value from gethostbyname() was a valid IPv4 address.
2387 - SuSE fix: httpConnect() didn't allow file descriptor 0
2388 to be used for a socket.
2389 - SuSE fix: ippRead() didn't confirm that all values in
2390 a set were numeric or string types.
2391 - SuSE fix: lppasswd race condition fixes.
2392 - SuSE fix: directive names could overflow buffer when
2393 reading *.conf files.
2394 - SuSE fix: HEAD requests for PPD files did not use the
2395 same logic as GET requests.
2396 - SuSE fix: possible buffer overflow when adding
2397 /index.html to requested directory name.
2398 - SuSE fix: possible buffer overflow when converting
2399 IPP attributes to string options for filters.
2400 - SuSE fix: creating file: device output with mode 0666
2401 instead of mode 0600.
2402 - SuSE fix: creating job info files with mode 0640
2403 instead of 0600.
2404 - SuSE fix: don't rely on snprintf() for including
2405 system name in log filenames.
2406 - SuSE fix: add bounds checking when copying quoted
2407 and hex strings.
2408
2409
2410CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.6-1
2411
2412 - Added configure check for getting the correct
2413 strftime() format string; %c is not Y2k safe,
2414 and %KC and NULL are not universally supported.
2415
2416
2417CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.6
2418
2419 - Fixed another possible DoS attack in httpGets()
2420 - Added check for "LANGUAGE = PCL" and "LANGUAGE =
2421 POSTSCRIPT" in mime.types.
2422 - Resolution options were not being passed into the
2423 filter programs properly.
2424 - The default compiler options for GCC no longer include
2425 "-g3", which apparently is deprecated in newer
2426 versions of GCC.
2427 - CheckJobs() could cause cupsd to crash if a job is
2428 cancelled in StartJob().
2429 - The printers.conf and classes.conf files are now
2430 written with restricted permissions.
2431 - The round-robin algorithm used by FindAvailablePrinter()
2432 had problems; fixes contributed by Joel Fredrikson.
2433 - If LoadAllJobs() is unable to determine the file type
2434 of a print job, assume "application/vnd.cups-raw".
2435 - The web interface now provides a job_printer_name
2436 value for any corresponding job_printer_uri value.
2437 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now logs the client address
2438 and hostname as well as all commands and errors in the
2439 syslog file.
2440 - The IPP backend now detects the supported file formats
2441 and only specifies the document format if it is
2442 supported. This makes IPP printing to network print
2443 servers and cards more reliable without affecting the
2444 capabilities of CUPS servers.
2445 - The time_at_xyz attributes are now converted to human-
2446 readable dates and times for the web interfaces.
2447 - The HP and EPSON sample drivers now correctly catch
2448 signals and eject the current page when a job is
2449 cancelled.
2450 - Fixed bug in CGI code - did not ignore control
2451 characters (e.g. newlines) in form data. This caused
2452 sporatic web interface problems.
2453 - The file type logging code in the scheduler referenced
2454 the optional document-format attribute; the new code
2455 uses the resolved MIME type instead.
2456 - The client.conf parsing code now removes trailing
2457 whitespace.
2458 - The MaxJobs directive was being treated as a boolean
2459 instead of an integer.
2460 - The scheduler would not timeout remote printers if
2461 BrowseInterval was set to 0.
2462 - The lpadmin command now supports setting of options
2463 and user-level access control.
2464 - Added "-E" option to all printing commands to force
2465 encryption.
2466 - The client code did not consume the response to the
2467 OPTIONS request when switching to secure mode.
2468 - The scheduler did not output a Content-Length field
2469 when responding to an OPTIONS request.
2470 - Added documentation on using cups-lpd with xinetd
2471 to the man page.
2472 - The socket backend now starts retries at 5 seconds and
2473 increases the interval to 30 seconds. This should
2474 provide faster printing when multiple jobs/files are
2475 queued for a printer.
2476 - The filters and backends no longer buffer output to
2477 stderr. This should provide much more accurate status
2478 reporting.
2479
2480
2481CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.5-2
2482
2483 - Fixed configure check for OpenSSL to work with RSA
2484 code.
2485 - Added configure check for <sys/ioctl.h>, and use this
2486 check in backend/serial.c.
2487 - Updated configure script handling of data,
2488 configuration, and state directories to use datadir,
2489 sysconfdir, and localstatedir variables.
2490 - NetBSD uses different serial port filenames than
2491 FreeBSD and OpenBSD.
2492 - The pdftops filter didn't need some X-specific files.
2493 - The scheduler makefile doesn't do a chown anymore when
2494 installing (cupsd did this automatically on startup
2495 anyways)
2496
2497
2498CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.5-1
2499
2500 - There was a typo in the top-level Makefile
2501 - The top-level Makefile did not install an init script
2502 for run level 5.
2503 - The configure script did not add the "crypto" library
2504 when checking for the OpenSSL library.
2505 - The OKIDATA PPD files were missing.
2506 - The config.h.in file defined the wrong version number.
2507 - The serial backend did not define "funky_hex" under *BSD.
2508 - Updated the Visual C++ project files and some of the
2509 CUPS API sources to compile under Windows again.
2510
2511
2512CHANGES IN CUPS V1.1.5
2513
2514 - Security updates - new default configuration does
2515 not broadcast printer information and only allows
2516 access from the local system.
2517 - EXPERIMENTAL encryption support - CUPS now optionally
2518 supports TLS/SSL encryption via the OpenSSL library.
2519 - Documentation updates.
2520 - Makefile/configure script updates.
2521 - The RPM spec file didn't work out-of-the-box under
2522 RedHat or Mandrake.
2523 - Minor code cleanup to remove extraneous compiler
2524 warnings.
2525 - cupsTempFile() was using %p for the temporary
2526 filename; this should have been %08x (just 8 digit
2527 hex)
2528 - Deleting a printer with active print jobs would still
2529 crash the server.
2530 - ippWrite() and ipp_write_file() didn't send the
2531 correct value length for name-with-language and
2532 text-with-language attributes.
2533 - Updated IPP code to support copied strings (that
2534 should not be freed); this provides slightly more
2535 efficient IPP server performance.
2536 - Updated PDF filter to Xpdf 0.91.
2537 - httpGets() could go into an infinite loop if a line
2538 longer than the input buffer size was sent by a
2539 client. This could be used in a Denial-of-Service
2540 attack.
2541 - The lpstat and CUPS API functions now request only the
2542 data required when getting the list of printer or
2543 class information. This should improve performance
2544 with large numbers of printers on slower machines.
2545 - The scheduler was always enforcing the FilterLimit,
2546 even if FilterLimit was set to 0.
2547 - Updated the Linux USB backend to support Mandrake's
2548 /dev/usb/usblp# filenames.
2549 - The PRINTER and LPDEST environment variables did not
2550 override the lpoptions default printer.
2551 - The PPD read functions incorrectly included trailing
2552 characters (usually whitespace) after quoted string
2553 attributes.
2554 - The multiple-document-handling attribute handling code
2555 did not check for the correct value for collated
2556 copies (separate-documents-uncollated-copies).
2557 - The EPSON driver did not work with OKIDATA printers in
2558 EPSON emulation mode (needed change-emulation command)
2559 - The HP-GL/2 filter did not scale the plot properly in
2560 scale mode 2.
2561 - Added PPD files for 9-pin and 24-pin OKIDATA printers.
2562 - The httpSeparate() function didn't handle passwords
2563 that started with a number.
2564 - ippDelete() could free the character set string
2565 multiple times in name-with-language and
2566 text-with-language attributes.
2567 - The scheduler would access freed memory right after
2568 freeing it (for debug messages); these parts of the
2569 code have been reordered to avoid this situation
2570 which was causing sporatic errors and crashes.
2571 - The ppdClose() function didn't free all of the strings
2572 in the ppd_file_t structure.
2573 - The LoadAllJobs() function in the scheduler did not
2574 close the spool directory.
2575 - Changed all sprintf's that use string formats to
2576 snprintf's, even if the destination buffer is
2577 larger than the source string(s); this protects
2578 against buffer overflows caused outside of CUPS...
2579 - Changed all strcpy's to strncpy's between local and
2580 global variables, even if the destination buffer is
2581 larger than the source string; this protects
2582 against buffer overflows caused outside of CUPS...
2583 - The CUPS certificate functions didn't use the
2584 CUPS_SERVERROOT environment variable when set.
2585 - The directory services code was copying instead of
2586 comparing the remote printer info, resulting in
2587 unnecessary updates of the printer attributes for
2588 remote printers.
2589 - Added new mime.types rules to allow automatic raw
2590 printing of PCL and ESC/P files; PJL headers are
2591 parsed to differentiate between PostScript and
2592 PCL job files. This should eliminate a lot of
2593 the reports of SAMBA printing problems due to
2594 the missing "-oraw" or "-l" options.
2595 - The mimeLoadType() function didn't handle the
2596 3-argument contains() function.
2597 - The LoadPPDs() function in the scheduler didn't
2598 properly set the alloc_ppds variable or handle a PPD
2599 database containing 0 printers.
2600 - The scheduler FindAvailablePrinter() function didn't
2601 use the same queuing logic as the CheckJobs()
2602 function. This caused classes to stall if a remote
2603 printer was always busy.
2604 - Jobs are now assigned to printers in a class
2605 round-robin style. This should prevent the first
2606 server in the class from bearing the brunt of the
2607 jobs.
2608 - The scheduler's LoadAllJobs() function didn't always
2609 restore remote printers for queued jobs on startup.
2610 - The serial backend didn't support the higher baud
2611 rates with the old termios interface. It now supports
2612 57600 and 115200 baud.
2613 - The serial backend now supports different types of
2614 flow control; previously it ignored the flow=XYZ
2615 option in the device URI.
2616 - The serial backend now supports DTR/DSR flow control,
2617 which is popular on dot-matrix printers (access with
2618 "flow=dtrdsr" in the device URI)
2619 - Added new job-originating-host-name attribute for
2620 jobs. The new attribute provides the hostname or
2621 IP address of the machine that submitted the job.
2622 - The set-job-attributes code no longer allows read-only
2623 job attributes to be changed.
2624 - Expanded the click area for the navigation bar in the
2625 web interface.
2626 - Updated the lp and cancel commands to support all of
2627 the Solaris print options (some are simply ignored
2628 since they do not map)
2629 - Updated the scheduler to limit the number of file
2630 descriptors to the maximum select() set size. This
2631 was causing problems on Solaris systems where the
2632 max FD count was increased beyond 1024.
2633 - The scheduler's LoadDevices() function was getting
2634 interrupted by the SIGCHLD signal handler; now ignore
2635 child signals while loading devices.
2636 - Added quota and allow/deny user support for printers
2637 and classes.
2638 - Removed black/CMY adjustment code from the PS and
2639 image file RIPs; it was interfering with some CUPS
2640 driver dithering code.
2641 - The lpc program stopped listing the queue statuses
2642 after the first active printer.
2643 - The cups-lpd program used an output format that the
2644 Solaris printing system did not understand.
2645 - Updated the lpq program to use the Solaris format
2646 except under Tru64 UNIX.
2647 - Some DEC PPD files incorrectly use "Off" for the null
2648 value in UI constraints. Added "Off" to the list of
2649 accepted null values.
2650 - Changed the *BSD define constants to __*BSD__ in all
2651 of the backends.
2652 - Added support for "lpstat printername", which is an
2653 undocumented feature in Solaris.
2654 - The HP-GL/2 filter now only sets the plot size if it
2655 is set in the plot file.
2656 - The lpmove command wasn't sending the requesting
2657 user name, causing it to always fail.
2658 - Updated the cupsTempFile() code to use GetTempPath()
2659 under Windows.
2660 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon didn't limit the number of
2661 data files accepted, didn't use cupsTempFile(),
2662 didn't handle control file job information in any
2663 order, and didn't free job options after printing
2664 a file.
2665 - The scheduler copy_banner() function did not
2666 explicitly set the owner and permissions of the banner
2667 files, which could prevent the banner pages from
2668 printing on some systems.
2669 - The lpstat program wasn't listing remote classes.
2670 - The scheduler did not verify that the printer-uri
2671 attribute was specified in all requests that required
2672 it.
2673
2674
2675CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1.4
2676
2677 - Makefile and configure script fixes.
2678 - **** Changed the default Printcap setting **** to
2679 /etc/printcap. There are just too many people asking
2680 why application XYZ doesn't see their printers!
2681 - The web admin interface now displays an error if it
2682 can't get the list of printer drivers from cupsd.
2683 - The IPP backend was putting the copies option before
2684 the other job options were set. This caused the IPP
2685 request to contain attribute groups in the wrong
2686 order, which prevented remote printing.
2687 - Added checks in scheduler to free memory used for
2688 IPP requests and language information when closing
2689 a client connection.
2690 - Fixed the duplex option in the HP LaserJet driver. It
2691 should now work with all LaserJet printers (and
2692 compatibles)
2693 - The add-printer web interface didn't initialize the
2694 "old info" data pointer, which caused random crashes
2695 on many OS's.
2696 - Fixed many page sizes defined in the Level 1
2697 compatibility file "gs_statd.ps" to match reality.
2698 - Fixed another bug in the setpagedevice "code" in
2699 Ghostscript. It should now accept all standard
2700 Adobe attributes on all platforms.
2701 - Fixed pstoraster so that it reallocates memory for
2702 color depth changes as well as size/resolution
2703 changes. This removes an ordering constraint on
2704 the color, page size, and resolution options in
2705 PPD files.
2706 - The IPP backend didn't use the job's character set
2707 when the destination printer supported it. This
2708 caused problems when printing text files to other
2709 CUPS servers.
2710 - Updated the logic used to determine when to rebuild
2711 the PPD file database. The scheduler now checks the
2712 dates and the number of PPD files (was just checking
2713 the dates.)
2714 - Updated the ippSetCGIVars() function (used by the
2715 web interfaces) to only filter valid string values.
2716 - The PostScript filter was scaling 2-up pages
2717 incorrectly. This caused the edges of some pages to
2718 be clipped.
2719
2720
2721CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1.3
2722
2723 - Makefile fixes.
2724 - RPM spec file changes.
2725 - Documentation updates.
2726 - Enabled pstoraster debug messages for everything
2727 (only logged when LogLevel set to "debug"...)
2728 - Changed the Input/OutputAttributes fix in
2729 pstoraster so that it works on all platforms.
2730 - The HP-GL/2 filter didn't set the right green
2731 color value in encoded polylines or text.
2732 - Updated the "fitplot" code to handle plot sizes
2733 specified as "PSwidth,length" and "PSlength,width".
2734 - Updated the Linux parallel and USB backends to open
2735 the device files prior to looking in /proc for
2736 autoprobe info. This makes sure that loadable device
2737 driver modules are in fact loaded...
2738 - Added new FilterLimit directive to limit the number
2739 of processing jobs/filters on a system.
2740 - set-job-attributes didn't change the job-state to
2741 held/pending when the job-hold-until attribute was
2742 specified.
2743 - set-job-attributes didn't save the new job attributes.
2744 - Now change the "requesting-user-name" attribute in
2745 requests from remote systems to "remroot" when an
2746 unauthenticated "root" user is sent. This can be
2747 changed using the new RemoteRoot directive in
2748 cupsd.conf.
2749 - The cancel-job, hold-job, release-job, and restart-job
2750 operations didn't log the authenticated username.
2751 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now checks for a
2752 document-format option before forcing raw mode with
2753 filter mode 'l'.
2754 - The cups-lpd mini-daemon now supports "-o" options
2755 on the command-line (passed by inetd) to set global
2756 defaults for all print queues.
2757 - The pstops filter assumed that a file with a Trailer
2758 comment would also have an EOF comment.
2759 - Added new cupsSetPasswordCB(), cupsSetServer(),
2760 cupsSetUser(), and ippSetPort() functions to better
2761 support client applications (especially GUIs...)
2762 - The CUPS-add-class and CUPS-add-printer operations
2763 didn't reset the printer-name attribute on remote
2764 print queues that had to be renamed when a local
2765 printer was defined with the same name.
2766 - The lpoptions command now supports a "-r" option to
2767 remove options for a printer or instance.
2768 - The lpadmin and admin.cgi programs no longer allow
2769 class and printer names to begin with a number; this
2770 caused the command-line utilities to become confused.
2771 - The Linux USB backend now looks for both the parallel
2772 and usblp driver names in the device list.
2773 - Added a new FontPath directive to cupsd.conf, and also
2774 a "--with-fontpath" option for the configure script to
2775 specify alternate font paths for pstoraster.
2776 - The CUPS-move-job operation didn't update the
2777 job-printer-uri attribute.
2778 - The scheduler only looked up printers and classes by
2779 name in IPP requests, instead of using the full URI.
2780 This caused problems with KUPS and friends with
2781 remote printers.
2782 - The scheduler now handles better localization of
2783 hostnames (e.g. server is host.foo.com, remote is
2784 host.subfoo.foo.com, localized is not host.subfoo...)
2785 - The scheduler logging functions now use a common
2786 log file checking/rotation function (courtesy of
2787 Crutcher Dunnavant at Red Hat)
2788 - The scheduler could accept more client connections
2789 than it allocated for if more than one Port or Listen
2790 line was present in cupsd.conf.
2791 - Other minor scheduler performance tweeks.
2792 - The lpq and lprm commands didn't support the default
2793 printer set using lpoptions.
2794 - The lpoptions command now supports a "-l" option to
2795 list the printer-specific options and their current
2796 settings.
2797 - The web printer and class lists now show a link to the
2798 default printer or class at the top of the page.
2799 - The text filter now supports pretty printing of shell
2800 and perl scripts as well as C/C++ source files.
2801 - The top and bottom margins were reversed for landscape
2802 text printing.
2803 - The lpq and lprm commands didn't understand printer
2804 instances.
2805 - The scheduler only selected on the first 100 file
2806 descriptors instead of the maximum file descriptor
2807 limit.
2808 - The scheduler client, listener, and mainline functions
2809 now share code to disable and enable monitoring for
2810 new client connections.
2811 - The imagetoraster filter didn't support all of the
2812 required pagedevice parameters.
2813 - The serial backend now checks for 100 serial ports
2814 under Linux.
2815 - The scheduler used sscanf() to pull out the remote
2816 printer location, description, and make/model strings,
2817 but if any of these options was empty then sscanf()
2818 would stop processing.
2819 - Added "debug2" log level to provide a little less
2820 verbose debugging information at the "debug" level.
2821 - The scheduler would crash if you stopped a printer
2822 that was currently printing a job.
2823 - The scheduler incorrectly allowed jobs in the cancelled,
2824 aborted, or completed state to be cancelled.
2825 - The image filters did not load TIFF images properly
2826 for bottom-to-top and right-to-left orientations.
2827 - Added new cupsEncodeOptions() function to encode
2828 CUPS options as IPP job attributes.
2829 - The IPP backend, LPD mini-daemon, client commands,
2830 and CUPS API did not properly encode multiple
2831 option values separated by commas.
2832 - Added new scheduler malloc logging in debug mode
2833 (provides summary of total arena size, allocated,
2834 and free bytes once a minute)
2835 - The EPM-based distributions didn't install the
2836 correct symlinks for a few man pages.
2837 - Fixed a memory leak in the scheduler - wasn't
2838 freeing old filters when deleting or renaming
2839 printers.
2840 - The scheduler now queries the primary IP address
2841 for the name of the server and maps any incoming
2842 requests from that address to the server name.
2843 This fixes web admin mapping problems from
2844 server.domain.com to localhost.
2845 - The web printer modify interface now remembers
2846 the previous device and driver settings (except
2847 for serial ports.)
2848 - The job-k-octets attribute is now stored as part of
2849 the job attributes; this preserves the information
2850 after a job is completed when job file history is
2851 turned off.
2852 - Dropped option sub-group parsing code for the moment,
2853 since many Xerox PPD files abuse this feature in PPD
2854 files and don't follow the hierarchy rules.
2855 - Added new wrapper code around options so that duplex
2856 options for some HP printers don't prevent prints.
2857 - Added support for Digital UNIX/Tru64 UNIX/OSF/1 format
2858 for "lpstat -v" output.
2859 - Now show the URI for remote printers instead of
2860 /dev/null in "lpstat -v" output.
2861 - Creating classes and adding printers to a class with
2862 the lpadmin command didn't work.
2863 - The banner pages and test page should now format
2864 correctly in both portrait and landscape orientations.
2865 - Updated banner page substitution so that { can appear
2866 by itself without quoting.
2867
2868
2869CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1.2
2870
2871 - Makefile/configure fixes
2872 - RPM spec file and EPM list file fixes
2873 - The cupsTempFile() function now uses a different
2874 algorithm for generating temp files and "reserves"
2875 them to avoid possible security exploitation.
2876 - Now use /dev/random (if available) to seed the random
2877 number generator for certificates.
2878 - The /var/spool/cups and /var/spool/cups/tmp directories
2879 were incorrectly owned by root; they are now owned by
2880 the filter user, typically "lp".
2881 - The scheduler now resets the permissions on the spool
2882 and temp directories as needed to match the filter
2883 user.
2884 - Now expose ppdCollect() as an externally callable
2885 function.
2886 - The image filters now support filtering from the
2887 standard input.
2888 - The imagetoraster filter now collects all printer
2889 options and job patch files and applies them to the
2890 page header as needed.
2891 - Added format and banner options to LPD backend.
2892 - The send-document operation didn't start a job
2893 immediately when last-document was true.
2894 - The set-job-attributes operation didn't correctly
2895 replace the current job-hold-until value.
2896 - Removed the option wrapper code from ppdEmit() and
2897 friends since it caused problems with Ghostscript
2898 and many PS printers.
2899 - Was setting TZ environment variable twice for job
2900 filters.
2901 - Added syslog logging in cups-lpd to aide in
2902 debugging problems.
2903 - The HP-UX parallel port backend did not list the
2904 available parallel ports on some systems (printf
2905 calling problem...)
2906 - The lp and lpr commands overrode user options if
2907 -d/-P were specified after -o.
2908 - The scheduler would crash with a */* filter.
2909 - Added support for a "default" filter for unknown file
2910 types. The example provided in the mime.types and
2911 mime.convs file prints unknown files as if "-oraw" was
2912 specified for the job. This functionality is disabled
2913 by default.
2914 - The "compatibility" mode fix for older backends did not
2915 work for smbspool. Added a workaround for it.
2916 - The HP-GL/2 filter didn't perform the right pen scaling
2917 with some files and the "fitplot" option.
2918 - New Software Performance Specification document that
2919 describes the memory, disk, and CPU usage of all the
2920 CUPS software.
2921
2922
2923CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1.1
2924
2925 - The pstoraster Makefile still referenced one of the
2926 old PDF filter files.
2927 - The filter Makefile used INSTALL_DATA instead of
2928 INSTALL_LIB to install the CUPS image library.
2929 - The administration CGI didn't work properly with
2930 network devices.
2931 - The BrowseACL variable was not updated after the
2932 cupsd.conf file was loaded.
2933 - The lpd mini-daemon didn't support printer instances.
2934 - Now use a default umask of 077 for child processes.
2935 - Now put temp files in /var/spool/cups/tmp for child
2936 processes and the root user, unless TMPDIR or TempDir
2937 is defined otherwise.
2938 - cupsGetPPD() no longer uses easy-to-guess filenames.
2939 - The CUPS-Delete-Class and CUPS-Delete-Printer
2940 operations now save classes.conf file as needed.
2941 - The lppasswd command wouldn't add a user.
2942 - The ppdOpen() function could cause a segfault if a
2943 0-length PPD file was read.
2944 - The image filters were not handling images with
2945 different X and Y resolutions properly.
2946 - The imagetoraster filter defaulted to RGB output
2947 instead of black output like pstoraster.
2948 - The pstops filter didn't handle binary data properly.
2949 - The pstops filter didn't handle copies properly for
2950 PS files lacking DSC comments.
2951 - The pstops filter now appends %%EOF to the end of
2952 documents if they don't have it.
2953 - The cupsGetPPD() function didn't work with remote
2954 printers lacking the @server in the name.
2955 - The configure script didn't work right when only
2956 --prefix was specified.
2957 - The ppdEmit() code now wraps all printer commands so
2958 that buggy PostScript printers will still print a file
2959 after receiving an option that isn't available.
2960 - Fixed the DeskJet margin bug, and disabled 600dpi
2961 color mode until it can be fixed.
2962 - The cupsAddDest() function didn't sort instances
2963 correctly in all cases.
2964 - The time-at-xyz attributes now expand to the date and
2965 time in banner files.
2966
2967
2968CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1
2969
2970 - Documentation updates.
2971 - Configuration script updates.
2972 - Didn't map charset and language value strings to lowercase
2973 and _ to - as required by SLP and IPP.
2974 - ppdLoadXYZ() didn't add the list of available fonts to the
2975 ppd_file_t structure.
2976 - The text filter common code was freeing the PPD file data
2977 before it was used.
2978 - The text filter now embeds missing fonts.
2979 - The CGI interface now maps local access to the server to
2980 the localhost address.
2981 - The HP-GL/2 filter didn't use the specified (or default)
2982 color ranges, resulting in strange colors.
2983 - The HP-GL/2 filter didn't default to no input window, which
2984 caused unnecessary clipping of plots.
2985 - Integrated Xpdf's pdftops filter into CUPS, which is a
2986 lightweight and reliable replacement for Ghostscript's
2987 PDF support.
2988 - Removed all PDF support from Ghostscript.
2989 - Updated HP driver to set top margin; this seems to fix
2990 the offset problem seen on HP DeskJet printers.
2991 - Fixed dependencies on the ZLIB and JPEG libraries in
2992 pstoraster.
2993 - The lpr command wasn't using the lpoptions defined by
2994 the user.
2995 - The lpr command would segfault if the CUPS server was
2996 not running.
2997 - The top-level makefile was not installing the CUPS
2998 initialization script. It now does so if it sees there
2999 is an init.d directory in /sbin, /etc/rc.d, or /etc.
3000 - "lpstat -v all" didn't work.
3001 - pstoraster would crash on some platforms doing the
3002 setpagedevice operator.
3003 - The web administration interface now allows you to set
3004 the default banner pages.
3005 - Images can now be positioned on the page using the new
3006 "position" option.
3007 - The AccessLog, ErrorLog, and PageLog directives now
3008 support "%s" to insert the server name.
3009 - Added a new BrowseShortNames directive to allow for
3010 short remote printer names ("printer" instead of
3011 "printer@server") when possible.
3012 - The scheduler could crash if given an invalid PPD file
3013 with no PageSize attributes.
3014 - Updated the serial, parallel, and usb backends to do
3015 multiple writes and ignore ioctl() errors as needed;
3016 this should fix problems with serial printing on old
3017 serial drivers and with the UltraSPARC parallel port
3018 driver under Solaris 2.7.
3019 - Now propagate LD_LIBRARY_PATH to child processes from
3020 cupsd.
3021 - New DataDir directive for installing in alternate
3022 locations.
3023 - New CUPS_SERVERROOT and CUPS_DATADIR environment
3024 variables to specify installation directories as
3025 needed.
3026 - Queued remote jobs recreate remote printers as needed
3027 when the scheduler is started.
3028 - Deleting a printer also purges all jobs on that
3029 printer.
3030 - Old job and control files that don't belong to a
3031 printer are automatically deleted.
3032 - Wasn't updating time-at-processing and
3033 time-at-completed attributes in job.
3034 - Didn't send required multiple-operation-time-out
3035 attribute in response to a get-printer-attributes
3036 request.
3037 - cups-lpd now supports options set with lpoptions.
3038 - The job-hold-until attribute is now provided with all
3039 jobs. For jobs that are not currently held the value
3040 is "no-hold".
3041 - The scheduler was not sending "unknown" values in IPP
3042 responses.
3043 - The lpoptions command now accumulates options from
3044 previous runs rather than replacing all options for a
3045 printer.
3046 - The IPP backend now switches to IPP/1.0 if a 1.1
3047 request fails.
3048 - The lpadmin and admin.cgi programs now validate new
3049 printer and class names.
3050 - The access_log file now includes the number of IPP bytes
3051 received in a POST request.
3052
3053
3054CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b5
3055
3056 - Documentation updates.
3057 - The pstoraster filter didn't compile without the JPEG library.
3058 - The cupsd server didn't support the HTTP OPTIONS request
3059 method.
3060 - Dropped the "CLOSE" method supported by the cupsd server.
3061 (not defined in HTTP specification)
3062 - Makefile/configure script fixes.
3063 - Missing the job-restart template.
3064 - Added IPP test suite for testing.
3065 - Missing IPP documentation from binary distributions.
3066 - Fixed multiple-document handling code when last-document
3067 not specified.
3068 - Added more checks to IPP requests to prevent bad requests
3069 from getting through.
3070 - Not all of the Ghostscript error output was being sent to
3071 stderr.
3072 - The PostScript filter now added PJL commands to set the
3073 job name and display string, if supported.
3074 - The scheduler would crash if the browse socket could not
3075 be bound. Now disables browsing if port 631 (reserved for
3076 IPP) is being used by a misbehaving daemon.
3077 - The USB backend now looks for the older Linux 2.2.x USB
3078 printer device filenames as well as the newer ones.
3079 - The IPP backend now uses the UTF-8 charset exclusively,
3080 since apparently only CUPS handles more than US-ASCII and
3081 UTF-8...
3082 - Wasn't quoting ( in PostScript banners...
3083 - Send-document requests with no document-format attribute
3084 could cause cupsd to crash.
3085 - Old jobs in the spool directory might cause cupsd to
3086 crash.
3087 - CUPS now supports all of the recommended job-hold-until
3088 keywords as well as name values of the form "HH:MM" and
3089 "HH:MM:SS".
3090 - Added placeholder pointer for TLS encryption to the HTTP
3091 connection structure.
3092 - Fixed the "fast poll" bug reported by DISA - the
3093 status pipe wasn't being closed for multi-file jobs.
3094 - Revamped put_params code in pstoraster to fix bitmap
3095 allocation bug with FrameMaker output.
3096 - Ripped out filename, etc. code from pstoraster as it
3097 is a potential security hole.
3098 - Added support for RIP_CACHE environment variable in the
3099 new pstoraster.
3100 - Fixed USB device filenames for Linux; now support new
3101 pre-2.4 devices (/dev/usb/lp#) and 2.2 devices
3102 (/dev/usblp#)
3103 - Fixed accept-jobs crash with classes.
3104 - Didn't include dot-matrix EPSON drivers in previous
3105 release.
3106
3107
3108CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b4
3109
3110 - Documentation updates.
3111 - Many makefile and configuration script fixes (should
3112 now compile better under *BSD.)
3113 - The MediaPosition attribute was being mishandled by
3114 GhostScript, causing the RIP to fail whenever a paper
3115 tray was selected.
3116 - The scheduler now logs the final line of log information
3117 from a filter, even if it doesn't end with a newline; this
3118 primarily affects GhostScript error output.
3119 - The scheduler was saving implicit classes, so after a few
3120 restarts you'll end up with AnyPrinter, AnyAnyPrinter, etc.
3121 - The JPEG autodetection didn't work with some JPEG files that
3122 came from digital cameras (JPEG but not JFIF); the new
3123 magic types should work with all images that the JPEG library
3124 can handle.
3125 - Fixed a bug in the new contains() MIME type rule that could
3126 cause cupsd to crash.
3127 - Switched to using strtol() in the MIME type code so that you
3128 can use hex, octal, or decimal constants as desired in the
3129 mime.types file.
3130 - Banner files are now treated as templates, allowing any type
3131 of file to be used as a banner.
3132 - Added a 30-second timeout to backend device reports so that a
3133 hung backend will not prevent the scheduler from starting.
3134 - Backends are once again terminated when jobs are stopped; the
3135 CUPS-supplied backends will stay alive until the downstream
3136 filters have had a chance to clear out old page data.
3137 - The charset lookup in the CUPS localization support was wrong
3138 (iso8859-x instead of iso-8859-x)
3139 - Changed the "cpNNNN" code page files to "windows-NNNN" to match
3140 the IANA registrations.
3141 - New PostScript banner pages.
3142 - Added Windows BMP and Alias PIX image file support to the image
3143 filter.
3144 - The PNG reading coded didn't free all of its buffers.
3145 - Added Digest authentication support to the client and server
3146 code.
3147 - Added Solaris options to System V commands.
3148 - Now support the output-bin job template attribute.
3149 - Now log the job-billing attribute in the page_log file, and
3150 keep track of the total number of pages in the
3151 job-media-sheets-completed attribute.
3152 - The penwidth option is now in micrometers to support more
3153 accurate width specification.
3154 - The image filters now support interlaced and transparent PNG
3155 files.
3156 - Didn't handle Keep-Alive for HTTP/1.0 clients.
3157 - The BrowsePoll support didn't handle when BrowseInterval
3158 was set to 0 (now uses 30 seconds if BrowseInterval is 0)
3159 - The DeskJet driver now supports 600 DPI color for printers
3160 that support it.
3161 - New lpinfo and lpmove commands.
3162 - The lpq command now supports the Digital UNIX output format.
3163 - The LPD mini-daemon now supports all required LPD operations.
3164 - Implemented timeouts for multi-file documents.
3165 - New cupsPrintFiles() function in the CUPS API library to
3166 print multiple files using create-job and send-document
3167 requests (1 job ID for multiple files)
3168 - The lp command now sends multiple files as a single job,
3169 matching the behavior of the System V command.
3170 - The "cancel -a" command now purges job history files.
3171
3172
3173CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b3
3174
3175 - Documentation updates.
3176 - The startup script redirected stderr before stdout,
3177 which caused problems with some versions of Bourne
3178 shell and Bash.
3179 - Fixed a bug in the scheduler's PPD language reading
3180 code.
3181 - Fixed a bug in the scheduler's check for the
3182 manufacturer in the PPD.
3183 - The pstoraster filter didn't allow some input and
3184 output attributes to be set.
3185 - Added banner page support.
3186 - Added missing PAM configuration file.
3187 - Configuration script fixes for Linux and *BSD.
3188 - The log file code was using the wrong sign for the
3189 timezone offset.
3190 - The default printcap file is now empty (no printcap
3191 file is generated).
3192 - The scheduler did not start jobs destined for remote
3193 printers when they became available.
3194 - The scheduler now sends jobs to remote printers
3195 immediately. (when sending jobs to a class, the remote
3196 printer is only used when it becomes available)
3197 - The scheduler now supports printing of banner pages
3198 via the job-sheets attribute (banner files go in
3199 /usr/share/cups/banners)
3200 - The cupsd process now forks itself into the background
3201 (override with -f)
3202 - Added several *BSD enhancements.
3203 - Added UNSUPPORTED libtool option to configuration
3204 script to allow the use of libtool. Note that this is
3205 UNSUPPORTED by us, but added by request of the *BSD
3206 folks.
3207 - The parallel, serial, and usb backends now retry the
3208 opening of their ports. This allows multiple print
3209 queues to be associated with a single physical port,
3210 and will allow CUPS to support several types of
3211 parallel port auto-switches in the near future.
3212 - Set-Job-Attributes now supports adding, changing, and
3213 deleting job template attributes, and no longer allows
3214 job-printer-uri to be set (see CUPS-Move-Job)
3215 - Added CUPS-Move-Job operation to support moving of jobs.
3216 - The CGI template functionality now supports multiple
3217 languages (still only have templates for English)
3218 - The CUPS-Get-Printers and CUPS-Get-Classes operations
3219 now support filtering as defined in the IDD.
3220 - The Get-Jobs, CUPS-Get-Printers, and CUPS-Get-Classes
3221 operations no longer limit themselves to 1000 jobs,
3222 printers, or classes (believe it or not, this is
3223 needed for some sites)
3224 - The web interfaces now support language-specific
3225 templates.
3226 - The web admin interface now supports class management.
3227 - The web admin interface now shows a list of
3228 manufacturers before selecting the PPD/driver for a
3229 specific printer.
3230 - The web admin interface now supports configuration of
3231 the default printer options in the PPD file.
3232 - The web interface now uses printer/class
3233 authentication for the test page instead of admin
3234 authentication.
3235 - Updated the RPM spec file for the current release.
3236 - Updated language support for Windows code pages.
3237 - 8-bit character set files can now use multiple fonts
3238 (needed for Arabic, Greek, Hebrew, etc.)
3239 - Added basic right-to-left text support in the text
3240 filter.
3241 - The POSIX locale now uses ISO-8859-1 instead of
3242 US-ASCII.
3243 - Fixed PDF printing problems.
3244 - Fixed PostScript RIP page device dictionary elements
3245 that weren't getting passed in cups_get_params().
3246 - Added a new "contains" rule for the magic file typing.
3247 - The "printable" rule now accepts characters from 128 to 255
3248 (needed for Microsoft character sets)
3249 - Added support for ~/.cupsrc as well as /etc/cups/client.conf
3250 so that the default server can be configured on a per-user
3251 basis without environment variables.
3252 - Added LPD mini-daemon to support incoming LPD jobs.
3253
3254
3255CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b2
3256
3257 - Documentation updates.
3258 - The lp command didn't always load the user-defined
3259 destinations, preventing it from seeing the default
3260 printer.
3261 - Many configure script and makefile fixes.
3262 - The Microsoft code page files were missing from the
3263 distribution.
3264 - Added a workaround for the HP IPP client (which is sending
3265 an invalid printer-uri in requests)
3266 - Fixed the encoding of text-with-language and name-with-language
3267 to match the IPP spec.
3268 - Added support for unknown value tags in the IPP routines
3269 (previously they would be ignored)
3270 - Integrated GNU GhostScript 5.50 into the pstoraster filter.
3271 - Client hostname resolution was broken on little-endian
3272 machines.
3273 - Now look at client.conf file for client's default server
3274 and printer.
3275 - The cupsServer() function did not close the client.conf file
3276 if it contained a ServerName directive.
3277 - Added BrowseAllow, BrowseDeny, BrowseOrder, BrowsePoll, and
3278 BrowseRelay directives.
