 335         - The parallel backend now gets the current IEEE-1284
 336           device ID string on Linux (STR #2553)
 337         - The IPP backend now checks the job status at
 338           variable intervals (from 1 to 10 seconds) instead
 339           of every 10 seconds for faster remote printing
 340           (STR #2548)
 341         - "lpr -p" and "lpr -l" did not work (STR #2544)
 342         - Compilation failed when a previous version of CUPS
 343           was installed and was included in the SSL include
 344           path (STR #2538)
 345         - The scheduler did not reject requests with charsets
 346           other than US-ASCII or UTF-8, and the CUPS API

 350         - The AppleTalk backend incorrectly added a scheme
 351           listing when AppleTalk was disabled or no printers
 352           were found.
 353         - The PostScript filter generated N^2 copies when the
 354           printer supported collated copies and user requested
 355           reverse-order output.
 356         - The scheduler did not reprint all of the files in a
 357           job that was held.

 377
 378 CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3.2
 379

 407           resolutions.
 408         - Fixed many problems in the various translations and added
 409           a new "checkpo" utility to validate them.

 414         - If a remote printer stopped while a job was being sent, the
 415           local queue would also get stopped and the job re-queued,
 416           resulting in duplicate prints in some cases.
 417         - A few Apple-specific job options needed to be omitted when

 433         - The scheduler makefile contained a typo (STR #2483)
 434         - The TBCP and BCP port monitors did not handle the trailing

 442         - Updated the Spanish web interface localization (STR #2473)
 443         - ppdLocalize() did not work for country-specific localizations.
 444
 445
 446 CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3.0
 447
 448         - The scheduler did not handle out-of-file conditions
 449           gracefully when accepting new connections, leading to
 450           heavy CPU usage.
 451         - The scheduler did not detect ServerBin misconfigurations
 452           (STR #2470)
 453         - "AuthType Default" did not work as expected when the
 454           "DefaultAuthType foo" line appeared after it in the
 455           cupsd.conf file.
 456         - The on-line help did not describe many common printing

 464         - The PostScript filter did not cleanly terminate when
 465           the job was canceled or stopped.
 466         - Fixed generation of Kerberos credentials for remote
 467           printing.  Note that this requires a recent version of
 468           MIT Kerberos with a working krb5_cc_new_unique()
 469           function or Heimdal Kerberos.
 470         - Added Portuguese and updated Italian message catalogs.
 471

 481 CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3rc1
 482
 483         - Updated the German localization (STR #2443)
 484         - cupsAdminGetServerSettings() did not handle </Foo> properly.
 485         - When lprm and cancel are run with no job ID, they now will
 486           cancel the first stopped job if no pending or processing
 487           jobs are left in the queue.
 488         - The scheduler now logs successful print jobs, filter
 489           failures, and the job file types at the default log
 490           level (STR #2458)
 491         - The scheduler now logs the usernames it is using for
 492           authorization at LogLevel debug instead of debug2 (STR #2448)
 493         - Added Intellitech Intellibar and Zebra CPCL PPDs to the list
 494           of installed PPDs.

 499           (STR #2439)
 500         - Moving a job that was printing did not stop the job on the
 501           original printer (STR #2262)
 502         - The cups-lpd mini-daemon did not work on Mac OS X server.
 503         - Added httpGetAuthString() and httpSetAuthString() APIs to get
 504           and set the current (cached) authorization string to use for
 505           HTTP requests.
 506         - Updated the default cupsd.conf policy to list the
 507           "administrative" operations separately from the "printer
 508           control" operations so that it is easier to define a
 509           group of users that are "printer operators".
 510         - The web interface now pulls the default cupsd.conf file
 511           from cupsd.conf.default in the CUPS config directory.
 512         - Added a help file for using Kerberos with CUPS.
 513         - The scheduler now strips the "@KDC" portion of Kerberos

 515           the group membership lists used by CUPS.
 516         - cupsMarkOptions() could (incorrectly) leave multiple option
 517           choices marked.

 523           (STR #2450)
 524         - The scheduler now erases authentication cache files using the
 525           7-pass US DoD algorithm.
 526         - Delegated Kerberos credentials (proxy authentication) did not
 527           work.
 528         - The filter makefile did not optimize the libcupsimage.2.dylib
 529           with a sectorder file.
 530         - The IPP backend incorrectly wrote an empty printer message
 531           when processing the "none" state reason.

 541
 542
 543 CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3b1
 544
 545         - Copyright updates - CUPS is now owned by Apple Inc.
 546         - Documentation updates (STR #1775, STR #2027, STR #2130,
 547           STR #2131, STR #2263, STR #2356, STR #2397)
 548         - Added new cupsfilter utility (STR #1734)
 549         - Added new job-printer-state-message and
 550           job-printer-state-reasons attributes to jobs (STR #2418)
 551         - Added LDAP+SSL support (STR #1967)
 552         - CUPS now supports authentication via peer credentials
 553           over domain sockets (STR #2242, STR #2277)
 554         - The CUPS sample driver PPDs are now generated by the PPD
 555           compiler and include all of the localized languages by
 556           default (STR #2164)
 557         - You can now specify "AuthType Default" in the cupsd.conf
 558           file to use the default authentication defined by the
 559           DefaultAuthType directive.
 560         - The SNMP backend no longer adds a default Address line
 561           when none is specified in the snmp.conf file; this allows
 562           the backend to be easily disabled as needed (STR #2434)
 563         - Added a new cupsctl command for doing basic changes to
 564           the cupsd.conf file (STR #1777)
 565         - Added a new ppdLocalizeIPPReason() function to get the
 566           localized text/URI for a given IPP reason keyword for a
 567           driver.
 568         - Removed the deskjet2.ppd driver, as it only worked with
 569           a very small subset of HP DeskJet printers and was
 570           confusing to users.  The rastertohp driver still
 571           supports the deskjet2.ppd options for existing queues.
 572         - The scheduler did not add a trailing banner page if a
 573           client did not specify the last document in a job (STR
 574           #1711)
 575         - The scheduler did not report Bonjour shared printers as
 576           remote printers (STR #2384)
 577         - Added new -R and -W options to the cupstestppd program
 578           for greater control over the testing of PPDs.
 579         - Added a new cupsGetServerPPD() function for getting
 580           an available PPD from the server (STR #2334)
 581         - Added a new cupsDoIORequest() function for reading
 582           and writing files via IPP requests (STR #2334)
 583         - Added a new CUPS_GET_PPD operation for getting an
 584           available PPD file on the server (STR #2334)
 585         - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports multiple ppd-product values
 586           based on the PPD ModelName and Product strings (STR
 587           #2334, STR #2383)
 588         - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports the PSVersion attributes
 589           from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
 590           (STR #2334)
 591         - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports the cupsModelNumber attribute
 592           from a PPD file in the ppd-model-number attribute (STR
 593           #2383)
 594         - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports a driver type string in the
 595           ppd-type attribute based on the cupsFax and cupsFilter
 596           attributes in a PPD file (STR #2383)
 597         - Added a new printer attribute called "cups-version"
 598           which reports the version of CUPS that is running
 599           (STR #2240)
 600         - backendRunLoop() now aborts immediately on SIGTERM
 601           if no data has been written yet (STR #2103)
 602         - Due to poor IPP support from the vendors, the SNMP
 603           backend no longer tries IPP connections; instead,
 604           it now uses a lookup file with fallback to port 9100
 605           (socket://address) and 515 (lpd://address) printing
 606           (STR #2035, STR #2354)
 607         - The scheduler now recreates the CUPS log directory as
 608           needed (STR #2353)

 612           of array elements (STR #2358)
 613         - ppdConflicts() optimizations (STR #2358)
 614         - The cupstestppd program now tests for existing filters,
 615           icons, profiles, and dialog extensions (STR #2326)
 616         - The web interface no longer lists new printers on the
 617           main administration page.  Instead, a new "List Available
 618           Printers" button is provided that shows a separate page
 619           with the list of printers.
 620         - The web interface now supports setting the banner and
 621           policy options on raw printers and classes (STR #2238)
 622         - The socket backend now reads any pending back-channel
 623           data before shutting down the socket (STR #2325)
 624         - Added a new ErrorPolicy directive in the cupsd.conf
 625           file (STR #1871)
 626         - Printers that use JCL options are now exported to Samba

 631           printer-alert-description attributes (STR #2088)
 632         - Added support for LPD "stream" mode (STR #2036)
 633         - The scheduler now reports the PostScript product string
 634           from PPD files in CUPS-Get-PPDs responses (STR #1900)
 635         - Raw printing with queues pointing to the file pseudo-
 636           device and multiple files and/or banners now works (STR
 637           #1933)
 638         - Added new public cupsAdminGetServerSettings() and
 639           cupsAdminSetServerSettings() APIs.
 640         - Added new "makebuttons" script in the "tools" directory
 641           for creating web interface buttons (STR #2231)
 642         - Added support for DNS-SD (aka "Bonjour") printer sharing
 643           (STR #1171)
 644         - Job operations (cancel, hold, release, etc.) from the
 645           web interface now return back to the original page (STR
 646           #2239)
 647         - The classes or printers list is now shown after a
 648           successful deletion from the web interface (STR #1999)
 649         - The default configuration now allows browse packets from
 650           any address (STR #2008)
