470
471CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3.0
472
473 - The scheduler did not handle out-of-file conditions

477 (STR #2470)
478 - "AuthType Default" did not work as expected when the
479 "DefaultAuthType foo" line appeared after it in the

529 and set the current (cached) authorization string to use for
530 HTTP requests.
531 - Updated the default cupsd.conf policy to list the
532 "administrative" operations separately from the "printer
533 control" operations so that it is easier to define a

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

583 file to use the default authentication defined by the
584 DefaultAuthType directive.

589 the cupsd.conf file (STR #1777)
590 - Added a new ppdLocalizeIPPReason() function to get the

592 driver.
593 - Removed the deskjet2.ppd driver, as it only worked with
594 a very small subset of HP DeskJet printers and was
595 confusing to users. The rastertohp driver still
596 supports the deskjet2.ppd options for existing queues.
597 - The scheduler did not add a trailing banner page if a

614 from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
615 (STR #2334)

617 from a PPD file in the ppd-model-number attribute (STR
618 #2383)

620 ppd-type attribute based on the cupsFax and cupsFilter
621 attributes in a PPD file (STR #2383)

623 which reports the version of CUPS that is running
624 (STR #2240)
625 - backendRunLoop() now aborts immediately on SIGTERM
626 if no data has been written yet (STR #2103)
627 - Due to poor IPP support from the vendors, the SNMP

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

642 main administration page. Instead, a new "List Available
643 Printers" button is provided that shows a separate page
644 with the list of printers.
645 - The web interface now supports setting the banner and
646 policy options on raw printers and classes (STR #2238)

707 which specifies the character set that is used in PJL
708 strings (STR #1969)
