      * debian/patches/kyocera-ppd-jcl-fix.patch: Corrected OrderDependency
        numbers for the JCL options so that the JCL code is definitely inserted
        in the correct order (LP: #442451).

  • foomatic-db (20090825-0ubuntu3) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * debian/foomatic-db.postinst, debian/openprinting-ppds.postinst,
        debian/openprinting-ppds-extra.postinst: Fixed "lpstat -r" check for the
        auto update of PPDs of existing queues. "lpstat -r" exits always with
        status 0, we must check the actual output. Call lpstat, lpadmin, and
        cupsctl with "-h /var/run/cups/cups.sock" to avoid querying remote
        servers set up in /etc/cups/client.conf, and asking for passwords.
        Thanks to Martin-Éric Racine for tracking this down and the solution!
        See Debian bug #543468. Use signal names instead of numbers for trap.
        Quiesces a lintian bashism warning.

  • foomatic-db (20090825-0ubuntu2) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/remove-redundant-hp-ppds.patch: Remove redundant PPDs for
        HP's PostScript printers. These PPDs are already included in HPLIP and
        only the versions in HPLIP are maintained upstream.
      * debian/control: Added "Suggests: hplip" to foomatic-db as the hplip package
        contains the PPD files for HP's PostScript printers.

  • foomatic-db (20090825-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release
         - Added entries for non-PostScript versions of the Sharp printers
           (LP: #253905).
      * debian/rules: Remove documentation files from PPD repositories.

      * debian/control: Moved cjet from Recommends: to Suggests: as it is only in
        Universe.

  • foomatic-db (20090819-0ubuntu2) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * debian/control: foometic-db now has a Depends: on Ghostscript, as all
        drivers for which foomatic-db provides PPDs need Ghostscript, Recommends:
        on all drivers which are needed so that all PPDs generated by foomatic-db
        work, and Suggests: on all printer driver packages in general. Removed
        unneeded Suggests: entries for cups from the PPD packages, as they depend
        on cups.

  • foomatic-db (20090819-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release
         - Updated Kyocera PPDs to version 8.4 (Upstream bug #366) and added 5
           new Kyocera printers.
         - Fixed default paper tray for the HP CM8050/CM8060 MFP to be tray 2 and
           not the bypass tray 1 (LP: #99316).
         - Added Brother HL-2140 and DCP-7070 (LP: #287889 and LP: #153295).
         - Removed some obsolete and redundant tags from the XML data.
         - Changed the recommended driver for the Epson Stylus Color 200 to
           "stcolor".The "mj500c" driver is buggy on Ghostscript 8.60 and newer
           (Red Hat bug #513676, Ghostscript bug #689595). Marked "mj500c"
           obsolete with "stcolor" as recommended replacement.
         - Added 8 printers from Texas Instruments.
         - Added the Genicom microLaser 12.
         - Added new driver entries "hpijs-pcl3", "hpijs-pcl5e", and "hpijs-pcl5c",
           to generate PPD files for all non-HP printers being used with HPIJS,
           as HPLIP does not provide PPDs for non-HP printers and foomatic-db-hpijs
           makes HPIJS support for non-HP printers too complicated. Updated
           recommended drivers for all affected printers.
         - Corrected option and choice IDs in some option XML files.
      * debian/control: Made foomatic-db-hpijs package obsolete by adding
        appropriate Conflicts:/Replaces: entries.
      * debian/control: Added Recommends: for all printer driver packages which get
        their PPDs from foomatic-db.
      * debian/foomatic-db.postinst: Let PPD files of existing queues which were
        generated with XML data from foomatic-db-hpijs (driver entry "hpijs") be
        replaced by PPDs from the new foomatic-db-provided driver entries
        "hpijs-pcl3", "hpijs-pcl5e", and "hpijs-pcl5c".

  • foomatic-db (20090712-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release
         - Added/fixed support for the HP DesignJet 30, 70, 90, 100, 100+, 110,
           120, 130, 500, 800, 5000, 5500: Assigned the "cdnj500" driver as
           recommended driver, added info about the unprintable margins, added
           "InputSlot" option to select the paper source from roll (with/without
           cut), tray, rear feed, manual feed. The driver also supports custom
           page sizes.
         - Fixed "Resolution" option for the "Postscript" and "Postscript1"
           drivers: Removed the "default" choice as it is not compliant with the
           Adobe specs and let the resolution code get inserted before the Page
           Size code, as according to the PPD specs some printers need to set
           the resolution before setting the page size.

  • foomatic-db (20090617-0ubuntu2) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * debian/control: Added dependency on cups and cups-client to assure that
        PPDs of existing queues get updated by the postinstall scripts.
      * debian/openprinting-ppds.postinst, debian/openprinting-ppds-extra.postinst:
        Updated manufacturer names for automatic updates of PPDs of existing print
        queues.

  • foomatic-db (20090617-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release
        - Many new printer models added (Fixes: LP: #10871, LP: #83960,
          LP: #114681, LP: #121060, LP: #258058, LP: #273975, LP: #343444,
          LP: #371737).
        - More user-friendly UI strings for the "Print Quality" option in some
          Brother PPD files (LP: #141487).
        - Replaced broken PPD for the Kyocera FS-9100DN by the one for the
          FS-9120DN (LP: #344691).
        - Added "*cupsFilter:" lines to all PCL-XL PPD files from Ricoh and OEM
          so that they accept PDF as input format. This assures that always the
          most straightforward CUPS filter chain gets used and interferences
          between filters (like LP: #361772) get avoided.
        - Removed "Black and White" Color Mode (1 bit per pixel) from the
          "cdj550" driver. This mode is not supported by the driver (LP: #337133).
        - DesignJet driver assignement fixes, new "cdnj500" driver.
        - Correction of auto-detection strings.
        - Addition of CUPS custom option definitions to the PPDs from Ricoh
          family and OEM.
        - New "pxldpl" driver entry for the Dell 3010cn and Dell DPL printers
          in general.
      * Merge from debian unstable, remaining changes:
        - Driver entries removed for drivers which are not shipped by Ubuntu
        - Fixed manufacturer-supplied PPDs: "*CloseUI <option>" ->
          "*CloseUI: <option>", "*1284DeviceId" -> "*1284DeviceID".
        - openprinting-ppds-extra package with PPDs from Ricoh family and OEM
          and non-English PPDs from Kyocera
        - Linked PPD files with Foomatic database, so that links in the Foomatic
          XML files keep working.
        - Removed link into /usr/share/cups/model, it makes PPDs appearing
          twice.
        - debian/patches/bjc600-bjc800.patch: Removed workaround for Ghostscript
          crashing when feeding bjc600/bjc800 drivers with PDF. The Ghostscript
          shipped by Ubuntu is fixed.
        - foomatic-filters-ppds discontinued upstream, updated debian/control
          appropriately.
        - foomatic-db does not make sense without foomatic-db-engine and
          foomatic-filters, made the Recommends: a Depends:.

  • foomatic-db (20090218-0ubuntu3) jaunty; urgency=low
    
      * debian/foomatic-db.postinst, debian/openprinting-ppds.postinst,
        debian/openprinting-ppds-extra.postinst: Silenced non-fatal error messages
        when post-instyall script updates PPDs and there are PPDs not belonging to
        a CUPS queue in /etc/cups/ppd/ (LP: #345866).
