208 | ||
209 | ||
210 | CHANGES IN CUPS V1.4b3 | |
211 | ||

224 | (STR #2624) | |
225 | - The scheduler now automatically logs the last N debug messages for | |

230 | - Moving jobs in the web interface now shows an error if you only have | |
231 | one printer or class added (STR #3094) | |
232 | - Since classes have never truly supported the printer-error-policy | |
233 | stuff added in CUPS 1.2, update the code to reflect the current | |
234 | reality and support only the retry-current-job policy for now | |
235 | (STR #3171) | |
236 | - Revised the password callback support (STR #2953) | |
237 | - ppdEmit*() did not choose between PageSize and PageRegion properly. | |
238 | - Make some fairly substantial changes to the Kerberos support code so | |
239 | that CUPS can work in multi-realm environments and does not require | |
240 | delegatable credentials. Shared printing still requires delegation, | |
241 | however "delegation by policy" can be enabled in the KDC to make this | |
242 | all work. | |
243 | - "AccessLogLevel actions" did not hide client-error-not-found errors. | |
244 | - AP_FIRST_InputSlot did not work with number-up. | |

246 | lack of kernel buffers. | |
247 | - The IPP and LPD backends did not respond to side-channel requests | |
248 | while copying print data to a temporary file. | |
249 | - cupsWriteRequestData() flushed the output buffer unnecessarily, | |
250 | causing reduced performance in some situations. | |

255 | - The scheduler did not write the printers out for classes. | |
256 | - CUPS-Get-PPDs did not work properly when filtering by language, | |
257 | product, or psversion (STR #3136) | |
258 | - The scheduler now kills job filters when it takes more than 30 seconds | |
259 | (configurable) to cancel or hold the job. | |
260 | - The cupstestppd program did not validate the capitalization of | |
261 | filenames in the PPD file. | |
262 | - The cupstestppd program did not validate the PageSize and PageRegion | |
263 | values. | |

265 | devices (STR #3108) | |

276 | seconds. | |
277 | - Updated the Spanish localization (STR #3090) | |
278 | - The scheduler did not redo Bonjour/DNS-SD registrations when updating | |
279 | them failed. | |
280 | - The "authenticated" policy incorrectly required authentication for | |
281 | status operations. | |
282 | - ppdOpen*() incorrectly loaded PPDs with multiple JobPatchFile | |
283 | keywords. | |
284 | - The network backends no longer report the SNMP "offline" or | |
285 | maintenance status bits since they are inconsistently implemented and | |
286 | often unreliable. | |
287 | - The scheduler no longer logs child processes killed via SIGKILL as | |
288 | "crashed". | |
289 | - The printer link shown on the "job moved" template was bad (STR #3085) | |
290 | - Updated the HTML templates to use the final HTML 4 DOCTYPE (STR #3086) | |
291 | - The scheduler did not track the "paused" reason properly if a | |

294 | - The PPD compiler did not search for localization files properly | |
295 | (STR #3084) | |
296 | - cupsGetNamedDest() did not use the fallback default like | |
297 | cupsGetDests*() (STR #3082) | |
298 | - The scheduler now provides a LogTimeFormat directive to enable | |
299 | microseconds in the date and time that are logged. | |
300 | - The scheduler now provides a MultipleOperationTimeout directive to | |
301 | control the timeout for multi-file print jobs. | |
302 | - The configure script incorrectly allowed Avahi to be used for DNS-SD | |
303 | printer discovery (STR #3065) | |
304 | - The web interface and scheduler did not support URIs up to 1024 bytes | |
305 | in length (STR #3072) | |
306 | - Fixed pdftops issues with page sizes (STR #3063) | |

308 | - The scheduler incorrectly registered default profiles for PostScript | |
309 | printers with no specified colorspace. | |
310 | - The scheduler incorrectly created an empty org.cups.printers.plist | |
311 | file on Mac OS X. | |
312 | - cupsGetPPD3() did not look for local PPDs in the right directory. | |
313 | - SNMP lookups via side-channel did not work for NULL-VALUE and | |
314 | and OCTET-STRING OIDs containing nul characters. | |

320 | web browsers (STR #3049) | |

325 | have associated translation text (STR #3045) | |
326 | - Updated the Spanish localization (STR #3043) | |
327 | - Fixed build problems (STR #3040, STR #3047) | |
328 | - cupsResolveConflicts() did not resolve using the default option | |
329 | choice in some cases due to the mirror UIConstraints that are | |
330 | present in most PPD files. | |
331 | - The scheduler did not honor MIME type priorities. | |
332 | - The commandtops filter incorrectly used the JCLBegin code to end | |
333 | its jobs. | |
334 | - The default BrowseLocalProtocols value was not set properly. | |
335 | - Since the commandtops filter does not actually support ReportLevels | |
336 | all on its own, don't list that printer command by default for PS | |
337 | printers. | |
338 | - The scheduler did not give filters a chance to log errors or update | |
339 | printer attributes when a job was canceled. | |

350 | --with-local-protocols value set at compile-time (STR #3037) | |
351 | - The cupsGetPPD* APIs now create symlinks to local PPD files | |
352 | rather than copying them whenever possible. | |
353 | - Various performance optimizations in the string pool, dests, and | |
354 | options implementations. | |
355 | - The cupsGetDests* APIs now return the marker and printer-commands | |
356 | attributes. | |
357 | - Side-channel SNMP lookups would not work when cupsSNMPSupplies | |
358 | was set to False in the PPD file. | |

373 | - The print filters now support a replacement for the fitplot | |
374 | option called "fit-to-page". | |
375 | - The LPD backend no longer tries to collect page accounting | |
376 | information since the LPD protocol does not allow us to | |
377 | prevent race conditions. | |
378 | - The scheduler did not save the last marker-change-time value. | |
379 | - Fixed a problem with printing to some IPP printers, including | |
