480
481CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3.0
482
483 - The scheduler did not handle out-of-file conditions

487 (STR #2470)
488 - "AuthType Default" did not work as expected when the
489 "DefaultAuthType foo" line appeared after it in the

540 HTTP requests.
541 - Updated the default cupsd.conf policy to list the

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

593 file to use the default authentication defined by the

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

602 driver.
603 - Removed the deskjet2.ppd driver, as it only worked with
604 a very small subset of HP DeskJet printers and was
605 confusing to users. The rastertohp driver still
606 supports the deskjet2.ppd options for existing queues.

624 from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
625 (STR #2334)

627 from a PPD file in the ppd-model-number attribute (STR
628 #2383)

633 which reports the version of CUPS that is running
634 (STR #2240)
635 - backendRunLoop() now aborts immediately on SIGTERM
636 if no data has been written yet (STR #2103)
637 - Due to poor IPP support from the vendors, the SNMP

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