Change logs for system-config-printer source package in Maverick

  • system-config-printer (1.2.3+20100723-0ubuntu8.2) maverick-proposed; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/75_do-not-list-duplicate-ppd-nicknames.patch: Fixed the
        patch to suppress duplicate listings of the same PPD file. The wrong
        entries were correctly suppressed, but the selection was applied to list
        which still contained them and so it often came to another driver than the
        selected one being set up (LP: #739375).

      * debian/patches/78_give-priority-to-hpijs.patch: Prioritize hpijs against
        hpcups again. With hpcups duplex printing does not work with most
        applications (LP: #428588, LP: #487695, LP: #657357).

  • system-config-printer (1.2.3+20100723-0ubuntu8) maverick; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/70_select-ppd-by-command-set.patch: If a PPD does not have
        a device ID or if it has a device ID without CMD: field, do not give a
        lower priority to it. Give only lower priorities if the PPD has a CMD:
        field without any matching PDL. This avoids that Foomatic PPDs with full
        device ID are prioritized against HP's original PostScript printer PPDs
        without device ID at all (LP: 653814).

  • system-config-printer (1.2.3+20100723-0ubuntu7) maverick; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/70_select-ppd-by-command-set.patch: Updated the patch so
        that a PPD is prioritized if already one of the PDLs listed in its device
        ID matches a PDL in the printer's device ID (comment #2 in Red Hat bug
        #630058).

  • system-config-printer (1.2.3+20100723-0ubuntu6) maverick; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/75_do-not-list-duplicate-ppd-nicknames.patch: Avoid
        duplicate listings of the same PPD file. According to the Adobe specs
        different PPDs have to have different NickName entries. Therefore
        we suppress repeated listing of the same NickName.
      * debian/patches/73_mark-selection-of-best-fitting-ppd.patch: After
        searching the best matching PPD for the detected printer only make
        and model got saved not the actually best matching PPD, making
        the patch to select PPDs by command set (CMD:) useless.
      * debian/patches/70_select-ppd-by-command-set.patch: Updated the
        patch to not selecting PPDs by exactly matching the content of the
        CMD: field of the device ID, but instead, select the PPDs whose device
        ID definitions contain only PDLs (page description languages) which the
        detected printer reports in its device ID (Red Hat bug #630058).

  • system-config-printer (1.2.3+20100723-0ubuntu5) maverick; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/67_improve-make-model-driver-list.patch: Improved and
        cleaned the way how make/model/driver combos get listed and also fixed
        the default driver selection for many printers:
         o Of some printer model names (like "Epson PX V500") parts of the name
           were considered a PPD version number and cut off.
         o Removed "Printer" from Apollo printer model names to reduce duplicates
         o Generally removed "PS" from the end of printer model names, so that
           the printer with and without an optional PostScript add-on is considered
           the same model (see especially the printers from Sharp).
         o Invalidated bogus model names which came in from the "*Product:" fields
           of some PPD files, like "CUPS" or "GPL Ghostscript".
         o If a printer is supported by manufacturer-supplied PPD files for both
           PostScript and PCL, the PCL file will be selected preferably, so that
           the printer will work also if an optional PostScript add-on is not
           installed (see printers from Gestetner, Infotec, Infoprint, Lanier, NRG,
           Ricoh, Savin).
         o Recognize Foomatic-generated PPDs as such also after the packaging
           change from Foomatic-XML data (foomatic-db) to a compressed PPD archive
           (foomatic-db-compressed-ppds).
         o Make Foomatic driver recommendations be taken into account also if the
           printer's manufacturer name is "Generic".
         o Do not do model name clean-up on PPDs which are supplied with CUPS or
           Ghostscript. These names get crippled otherwise.
         o Avoid applying model name clean-up twice.
      * debian/patches/70_select-ppd-by-command-set.patch: If both the detected
        device ID and the device ID in the PPD ("*1284DeviceID: ...") have a CMD
        field, exact matches of the CMD field prioritize the PPD file. This way
        especially for printers with optional PostScript add-on the correct PPD
        gets selected (requested by Ricoh).

  • system-config-printer (1.2.3+20100723-0ubuntu4) maverick; urgency=low
    
      * All Fixes backported from system-config-printer 1.2.4.
      * debian/patches/55_avoid-connecting-to-cups-twice-in-ppdsloader.patch:
        Avoid that two connections to CUPS are done to obtain a list of the
        locally available PPD files/drivers. This makes finding the driver for
        a detected printer significantly faster.
      * debian/patches/57_catch-key-error-from-lookup-cached-by-name.patch:
        Avoid a traceback source in the job viewer.
      * debian/patches/60_correct-python-shebang.patch: Make sure that always
        the system's Python interpreter (/usr/bin/python) and never a locally
        added one (like /usr/local/bin/python) is used.
      * debian/patches/63_list-of-jockey-installed-files-is-array-not-set.patch:
        Fixed an obvious typo.
      * debian/patches/65_udev-configure-printer-bluetooth-support.patch:
        Bluetooth printer support for udev-configure-printer.

      * debian/patches/53_printer-ppd-association-take-into-account-product-lines.patch:
        Fixed patch because many drivers/PPDs did not get listed, especially
        all Foomatic PPDs and LSB-based packages issued by OpenPrinting
        (LP: #610428).

  • system-config-printer (1.2.3+20100713-0ubuntu2) maverick; urgency=low
    
      * debian/patches/53_printer-ppd-association-take-into-account-product-lines.patch:
        If a PPD contains one or more "*Product:" lines, take these into account
        as alternative model names when associating PPDs with detected printer
        models. Some PPDs, especially from HP are for various different printer
        models which are listed in "*Product:" lines. Up to now, no printer setup
        tools made use of these lines. Especially the PostScript PPD file for the
        HP Color LaserJet CM 1312 series mentions taht it supports also the
        CM1312nfi only in one of many "*Product:" lines and therefore this printer
        gets automatically installed in PCL mode, as for PCL there are PPDs having
        this printer in "*ModelName:" (LP: #561264).
    
      * debian-control: Require version 1.9.51-0ubuntu2 or newer of python-cups.
    
      * debian/patches/57_backend-integration-dnssd-bluetooth.patch,
        debian/patches/75_use-dnssd-uris-for-hplip.patch,

           on the translation mechanism (LP: #557199).
         o Fixed markup in error pop-ups (LP: #567324).
         o Made width of "Verify" button in New Printer Wizard adapt to the length
           of the actual translation of "Verify" (LP: #575048).
         o Make Kyocera detected if it reports only the model name (Upstreamized
           LP: #564633).
         o Removed doubled-up 'translatable' attribute in UI file (LP: #571662).

      * debian/patches/57_backend-integration-dnssd-bluetooth.patch: To check for
        HP fax devices do not do an exact match of "Fax" with the model name but
        check whether the model name begins with "Fax".
      * debian/patches/44_no-runtime-error-on-missing-firewall.patch: Let the
        firewall functions exit silently if there is no firewall service on the
        D-Bus.
      * debian/patches/50_give-priority-to-hpcups.patch: Prioritize hpcups against
        HPIJS again. It should have matured enough now.
      * debian/system-config-printer-common.install: Added new dnssdresolve.py
        file.
      * debian/rules: Added directory settings for UDEV rules and scripts to the
