Changelog for manufacturer-PPDs-10.2-264.1.2.noarch.rpm :

* Fri Mar 30 2012 jsmeixAATTsuse.de- Empty the changelog section in the spec file.
* Fri May 29 2009 jsmeixAATTsuse.de- Removed all TurbolinuxJapanesePPDs because all contain \"cupsomatic\" as \"cupsFilter\" but \"cupsomatic\" is outdated since a long time and no longer included in our up-to-date foomatic-filters version 4.0.1 package. It might work to create a symbolic link \"cupsomatic -> foomatic-rip\" in the /usr/lib[64]/cups/filter/ directory to still use outdated \"cupsomatic\" PPDs even with a current foomatic-rip but it was not tested to what extent this might work.
* Fri Sep 05 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de- Keep all PPDs even if cupstestppd FAILs. With each CUPS version upgrade cupstestppd finds more and more errors so that more and more PPDs would be no longer included in the RPM which have been included before which results a regression. As far as we know there have been no problems at all because of not strictly compliant PPDs in so that it is much better to provide all PPDs so that the matching printers can be used than to be rigorous regarding compliance to the PPD spec.
* Tue Sep 18 2007 jsmeixAATTsuse.de- Add a line-feed to the end of all PPDs to fix those PPDs where it is missing. See Novell/Suse Bugzilla bug #309832: Unix/Linux text files must end with a line-feed. Otherwise reading the last line results EOF and then some programs may ignore the last line.
* Wed Sep 12 2007 jsmeixAATTsuse.de- Ignore cupstestppd FAILs because of errors in UIConstraints and/or NonUIConstraints which are detected since cupstestppd in CUPS > 1.2.7 (i.e. since openSUSE 10.3). See Novell/Suse Bugzilla bug #309822: When this bug is fixed, cupstestppd would no longer result zero exit code. In the long run the PPDs should be fixed but as far as we know there have been no problems because of such UIConstraints errors so that it should be o.k. let those PPDs pass even if they are not strictly compliant.
* Mon Nov 27 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de- Re-enable the TurbolinuxJapanesePPDs for the alc4000 driver in Ghostscript which seems to work now.- Remove a duplicate Okidata-DP_5000 TurbolinuxJapanesePPD.
* Tue Nov 07 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de- Fixed Ricoh-DDP_92_PS.ppd and Ricoh-DDP_92_PS.plainPS.ppd (removed a trailing \"
*HKTrimming\" from UIConstraints).
* Fri Oct 20 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de- Fix bugs in HP PPDs (\"
* PageRegion\" must be \"
*PageRegion\").- Check and warn for duplicate NickName entries.
* Wed Oct 18 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de- Updated PPDs from the following manufacturers to the newest available from LinuxPrinting.org: HP, OCE, Sharp, Kyocera, Ricoh-family (Ricoh, Gestetner, Infotec, Lanier, NRG, Savin), Brother, Oki, but Epson cannot be updated because of non-free license.- Added Toshiba PPDs (under GPL with additional permission).
* Mon Jul 17 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de- Several new fixes for errors in PPDs which are detected by the new CUPS 1.2 cupstestppd.
