586 CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3.0

588 - The scheduler did not handle out-of-file conditions

644 and set the current (cached) authorization string to use for
645 HTTP requests.
646 - Updated the default cupsd.conf policy to list the
647 "administrative" operations separately from the "printer
648 control" operations so that it is easier to define a

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

689 - Added new job-printer-state-message and
690 job-printer-state-reasons attributes to jobs (STR #2418)

695 compiler and include all of the localized languages by
696 default (STR #2164)

698 file to use the default authentication defined by the
699 DefaultAuthType directive.

701 when none is specified in the snmp.conf file; this allows
702 the backend to be easily disabled as needed (STR #2434)
703 - Added a new cupsctl command for doing basic changes to
704 the cupsd.conf file (STR #1777)
705 - Added a new ppdLocalizeIPPReason() function to get the
706 localized text/URI for a given IPP reason keyword for a
707 driver.
708 - Removed the deskjet2.ppd driver, as it only worked with
709 a very small subset of HP DeskJet printers and was
710 confusing to users. The rastertohp driver still
711 supports the deskjet2.ppd options for existing queues.
712 - The scheduler did not add a trailing banner page if a

729 from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
730 (STR #2334)
731 - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports the cupsModelNumber attribute
732 from a PPD file in the ppd-model-number attribute (STR
733 #2383)

735 ppd-type attribute based on the cupsFax and cupsFilter
736 attributes in a PPD file (STR #2383)
737 - Added a new printer attribute called "cups-version"
738 which reports the version of CUPS that is running
739 (STR #2240)
740 - backendRunLoop() now aborts immediately on SIGTERM
741 if no data has been written yet (STR #2103)
742 - Due to poor IPP support from the vendors, the SNMP

746 (STR #2035, STR #2354)
747 - The scheduler now recreates the CUPS log directory as

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

757 main administration page. Instead, a new "List Available
758 Printers" button is provided that shows a separate page
759 with the list of printers.
760 - The web interface now supports setting the banner and
761 policy options on raw printers and classes (STR #2238)
762 - The socket backend now reads any pending back-channel

773 - The scheduler now reports the PostScript product string
774 from PPD files in CUPS-Get-PPDs responses (STR #1900)

785 web interface now return back to the original page (STR
786 #2239)
787 - The classes or printers list is now shown after a

821 - Added support for cupsPJLCharset attribute in PPD files
822 which specifies the character set that is used in PJL
823 strings (STR #1969)
824 - Moved the definition of the (private) _http_s structure
