Changelog for cups-filters-cups-browsed-1.8.2-4.4.1.x86_64.rpm :
Thu Mar 3 13:00:00 2016 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Version upgrade to 1.8.2

* Allow disabling dependencies on Ghostscript and Foomatic
(Bug #1342).

* cups-browsed: Optionally generate also local queues pointing
to remote raw queues. Usually only queues pointing to remote
queues with PPD/driver are created (Debian bug #814020,
Debian bug #756724).
- Version upgrade to 1.8.1

* cups-browsed: Do not disable queues which still have jobs (and
therefore cannot be removed) when avahi-daemon goes away, the
print server is most probably still available and printing can
be continued. Especially important on mobile devices where
avahi-daemon is shut down when the print dialog is closed (and
the job(s) still printing).
- Version upgrade to 1.8.0

* COPYING: Replaced the COPYING file by a file in Debian format,
derived from Debian\'s file but updated and corrected.

* braille: Added info about additional packages needed for
Braille printing to the README file.

* braille: Let the Braille filters use lou_translate of
liblouis if the more sophisticated file2brl of liblouisutdml
is not installed. This is decided on at run time, so later
installation of liblouisutdml will let the filters
automatically switch to file2brl.

* braille: Allow to build with Braille support also if
liblouis is not installed at build time.

* braille: Added checks for the presence of helper tools, to
get clear messages in the CUPS error_log if something is
missing.

* Fixed copyright headers of files inherited from CUPS or
derived from CUPS, pointing to COPYING as license info file,
removing Apple exceptions, removing hints that a missing
license info file can be found at www.cups.org, and removing
\"$Id\" SVN file ID placeholders.

* Updated COPYING file for missing implicitclass and beh
backends.
- Version upgrade to 1.7.0

* cups-browsed: Added possibility to trigger the auto shutdown
by the queues of cups-browsed being without jobs. Before
auto shutdown was only possible when all queues have gone
away. This allows auto shutdown on mobile devices where
avahi-daemon is also used for other things than printing.
- Version upgrade to 1.6.0

* cups-browsed: Fixed use of CUPS domain socket, both
detection during build process and permission check at
runtime.

* foomatic-rip: Fixed buffer overflow when reading environment
variables CUPS_FONTPATH, CUPS_DATADIR, and GS_LIB (Bug
[#1336]).

* beh: Introduced beh, the Backend Error Handler, a wrapper
backend to make handling of backend errors more
configurable. This backend is a C re-write of the beh
backend written in Perl which was part of the former
foomatic-filters package. Several people asked for beh
getting moved to cups-filters.

* braille: Make image printing working also if ImageMagick
generates formatted images without header.

* braille: If the user does not select a Braille translation,
let the embosser do the translation.

* cups-browsed: Added version info to help screen and start-up
in debug mode, call help screen also via \"--version\" option.

* cups-browsed: Minor improvements in help screen and man page.
- Version upgrade to 1.5.0

* cups-browsed: Allow use of an alternative configuration file
via the \"-c\" command line option.

* cups-browsed: Allow supplying configuration settings via the
command line using the \"-o\" command line option.

* cups-browsed: Command line help via the \"-h\" or \"--help\"
command line option.

Thu Dec 17 13:00:00 2015 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Version upgrade to 1.4.0
Changes in 1.4.0 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* foomatic-rip: SECURITY FIX: Also consider the semicolon
(\';\') as an illegal shell escape character. Thanks to Adam
Chester (adam dot chester at pentest dot co dot uk) for the
hint (CVE-2015-8560).

* brftoembosser, imagetobrf, imagetoubrl, imageubrltoindexv3,
imageubrltoindexv4, textbrftoindexv3, textbrftoindexv4,
texttobrf, braille.convs, braille.types, generic-brf.drv,
indexv3.drv, indexv4.drv: Added support for Braille
embossing via CUPS. Text and even images can now be sent to
a Braille embosser like to a printer. Thanks to Samuel
Thibault (samuel dot thibault at ens-lyon dot org) for this
contribution.
- BuildRequires liblouis-devel is needed for Braille embossers.
- Version upgrade to 1.3.0
Changes in 1.3.0 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* cups-browsed: Added new BrowseFilter directive in
cups-browsed.conf. This directive allows filtering of the
remote printers to be accepted on most properties/metadata
supplied with the DNS-SD broadcasts. This allows, in
addition to BrowseAllow/BrowseDeny/BrowseOrder, to reduce
the amount of printers listed in print dialogs to a more
useful amount.

* cups-browsed: Added support for BrowseDeny and BrowseOrder
directives in cups-browsed.conf.

* cups-browsed: Let the BrowseAllow lines in cups-browsed.conf
also apply to remote printers discovered via DNS-SD.
- Version upgrade to 1.2.0
Changes in 1.2.0 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* foomatic-rip: SECURITY FIX: Also consider the back tick
(\'`\') as an illegal shell escape character. Thanks to Michal
Kowalczyk from the Google Security Team for the hint
(CVE-2015-8327).
- Version upgrade to 1.1.0
Changes in 1.1.0 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* Version numbering scheme changed: Releases with feature
addition/change have the minor number increased now, pure
bug fix releases get the revision number increased, to make
use of the minor number which stayed zero all the time.

* cups-browsed: Added \"DefaultOptions\" directive to
cups-browsed.conf to allow defining default option settings
for local queues to be generated for newly appearing remote
printers.

* cups-browsed: Let option settings of a generated print queue
be saved before taking the queue down so that when the remote
printer appears again all user changes get restored, making
user changes permanent on generated queues.

* cups-browsed: Added a mode in which IP-based device URIs
for the generation of local print queues are used, for
cases with problems in local host name resolution.

* foomatic-rip: Use -dFirstPage=... and -dLastPage=... only
if really needed (Bug #1324).

* cups-browsed, implicitclass: Make the load-balancing
configurable so that one can select whether the jobs get
queued up locally like in a CUPS class or whether they get
immediately distributed to the remote servers letting them
queue up there.
- FirstPage_LastPage_only_if_needed.patch is obsolete since
version 1.1.0 because it is fixed in the sources.

Wed Oct 7 14:00:00 2015 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- FirstPage_LastPage_only_if_needed.patch lets foomatic-rip
add -dFirstPage=N [and -dLastPage=M] to the Ghostscript
command line only if those options are actually needed
(i.e. if FirstPage > 1 [and when LastPage >= FirstPage])
cf. http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=696246
and https://bugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1324
- At least for now support for cups154 in the SLE12 legacy module
is abandoned (by default SLE12 has CUPS 1.7.5) because newer
cups-filters versions again use stuff that is provided
since CUPS > 1.5.4 so that it does no longer build with
CUPS 1.5.4. Perhaps I (jsmeixAATTsuse.de) find time to fix it
again for CUPS 1.5.4 but when not, newer cups-filters will
no longer work with CUPS 1.5.4.
- Version upgrade to 1.0.76
Changes in 1.0.76 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* cups-browsed, implicitclass: Let the load-balancing queue up
the jobs in the local (generated) queue until a free (idle,
enabled, and accepting jobs) remote queue is found (check
every 5 sec if no free queue available). This gives a more
even distribution of the work amongst the servers and
protects against the case that a bunch of jobs gets
inaccessible or lost if one of the servers fails.

* cups-browsed: Let the load-balancing also check whether the
destination queue is actually accepting jobs.

* cups-browsed: If a generated queue is not removed on
shutdown of cups-browsed due to remaining jobs in it,
re-enable it in the next cups-browsed session even if it was
disabled by something other than cups-browsed.

* implicitclass: Clean up debug and error messages.

* implicitclass: Fix exit codes for immediate retry of jobs.

* cups-browsed: Make absence of CUPS notifications via D-Bus
non-fatal and fall back to the old behavior of cups-browsed
(fail-over instead of load balancing for equally-named
remote queues, do not remove generated queue if it is
default instead of default printer management). This solves
problems of CUPS and/or cups-browsed built without D-Bus
support or absence of D-Bus on the system (Bug #1316).

* cups-browsed: Do not use g_warning() function, sneaked in
by copy and paste of CUPS subscription functions.
- Version upgrade to 1.0.75
Changes in 1.0.75 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* texttopdf: Really support BoldItalic (original texttops
just maps BoldItalic to Bold).

* texttopdf: Fixed segfault when outputting BoldItalic
(Bug #1314).
- Version upgrade to 1.0.74
Changes in 1.0.74 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* cups-browsed: Added NULL check when getting the notification
of a printer starting to process a job and checking whether
this printer is created by cups-browsed with the
implicitclass: backend (Ubuntu bug #1488524).

* cups-browsed: Do not schedule printers for update when they
are already marked as disappeared.

* cups-browsed: Added sanity checks when saving the default
printer selection in a file.

* cups-browsed, implicitclass: If remote queues disappear or
cups-browsed shuts down and a cups-browsed-generated queue
still has jobs and needs to be kept therefore, disable it
and re-enable it when cups-browsed starts again and/or the
remote queue(s) re-appear(s). This avoids repeated retries
of the jobs while the remote server is not available, causing
unneeded system load and battery consumption.

* cups-browsed: After polling info from remote CUPS servers
to find the best destination job, set the default CUPS server
back to local.
- Version upgrade to 1.0.73
Changes in 1.0.73 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* cups-browsed: Added missing
utils/org.cups.cupsd.Notifier.xml file.
- Version upgrade to 1.0.72
Changes in 1.0.72 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* cups-browsed, implicitclass: Added load balancing
functionality. If there are several remote CUPS printers
with the same name, they for locally a cluster represented
by a print queue with this name. This printer prints through
a special backend (implicitclass) which makes cups-browsed
find the best destination remote queue (fewest jobs,
enabled) for this job.

* cups-browsed: Added protection against accidental deletion of
print queues generated by cups-browsed. These queues now get
automatically re-created.

* cups-browsed: Added LDAP support. Appropriately configured
via cups-browsed.conf remote printers made available via LDAP
will be looked up and local queues pointing to them created.
Thanks to Raphael Geissert (atomo64 at gmail dot com) for
contributing this patch (Debian bug #795185).

* cups-browsed: Introduced new handling for the default printer
using cache files. So we do not need to keep an auto-generated
queue because it is set as default printer. If the
auto-generated queue disappears, the old local printer is set
as default again and when it re-appears it returns to be the
default printer.

* cups-browsed: Added infrastructure for subscribing to CUPS
notifications for things like improved default printer
handling, load balancing, ...

* foomatic-rip: Prevent crash when supplying \"media\" option with
empty value (\"media=\", Ubuntu bug #1479871).

* pdftoopvp: Adaptations to API changes on Poppler 0.34.0, note
that this patch disables color management in this filter.
Thanks to Vincent le Garrec and Andreas K. Huettel for the
patch (Bug #1301, Gentoo bug #554782).

* texttopdf: Request the generic \'monospace\' font alias from
fontconfig instead of the hard-coded FreeMono. Thanks
to Fabian Greffrath (fabian at debian dot org) for the
patch (Debian bug #788048).
- cups-filters-poppler-034.patch is obsolete since version 1.0.72
because it is fixed in the sources.

Thu Sep 3 14:00:00 2015 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- More appropriate URL entry in spec file:
Now it is (wrapped URL)
http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups
/openprinting/cups-filters
that shows mainly generic information instead of (wrapped URL)
http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups
/openprinting/pdf_as_standard_print_job_format
that provides mainly technical details.

Sun Jul 26 14:00:00 2015 zaitorAATTopensuse.org
- Add cups-filters-poppler-034.patch: Fix build with poppler-0.34.
See https://bugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1301
pdftoopvp: Adaptations to API changes on Poppler 0.34.0, note
that this patch disables color management in this filter.

Mon Jul 6 14:00:00 2015 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Version upgrade to 1.0.71
Changes in 1.0.71 (cf. the NEWS file but there is a typo
in the NEWS file that claims the CVE number is 3259
while the correct CVE number is 3279):

* texttopdf: The Page allocation is moved into textcommon.c,
where it does all the necessary checking: lower-bounds
for CVE-2015-3258 and upper-bounds for CVE-2015-3279
due to integer overflows for the calloc() call
initialising Page[0] and the memset() call in texttopdf.c\'s
WritePage() function zeroing the entire array.
Thanks to Tim Waugh from Red Hat for the patch.

* texttopdf: Upper-bounds checking (CVE-2015-3279).

Mon Jun 29 14:00:00 2015 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Version upgrade to 1.0.70
Changes in 1.0.70 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* texttopdf: Fixed buffer overflow on size allocation
of texttopdf when working with extremely small line sizes,
which causes the size calculation to result in 0
(CVE-2015-3258, thanks to Stefan Cornelius fro Red Hat
for the patch).

* cups-browsed: leak fixes

* cups-browsed: Further BrowseAllow fixing

* cups-browsed: BrowsePoll is an array of pointers,
not structures, so allocate room for the pointers

* cups-browsed: Prevent NULL dereference when handling
BrowseAllow without value

* cups-browsed: Use memory deallocation function
corresponding to allocation function used

* cups-browsed: Fixes for glib source handling
(Red Hat bug #1228555)
- Version upgrade to 1.0.69
Changes in 1.0.69 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* cups-browsed: When checking whether a queue name already
exists as a locally defined queue, do case-insensitive
comparing as for CUPS printer names are case-insensitive.
This assures that already existing queues do never get
overwritten.

* cups-browsed: Added \"IPPPrinterQueueType Auto/PPD/NoPPD\"
directive to cups-browsed.conf to allow controlling how
cups-browsed creates queues fr native IPP network printers:
with PPD, with System V interface script, or selecting
automatically.

* pdftopdf: Center Landscape-oriented jobs correctly
on the page if the \"fitplot\" or \"number-up\" options
are used (Bug #1284).

* pstopdf: Removed \"-dUseCIEColor\" from the Ghostscript command
line. In modern Ghostscript versions (9.11 and newer) it is
recommended to not use it with the pdfwrite and ps2write
output devices any more.

* imagetopdf: Corrections in PDF output: Let evince display
the PDF with the correct size including margins and let
ghostscript not complain about an invalid xref entry.

* sys5ippprinter: Renamed pdftoippprinter to reflect that it is
once a System 5 interface script and second does not accept
only PDF as input.

* pdftoippprinter: Support also PWG Raster and JPEG as input
formats so that an auto-generated, PPD-less queue for an
IPP printer emulates an IPP Everywhere printer.

Thu May 14 14:00:00 2015 tchvatalAATTsuse.com
- Version bump to 1.0.68:

* cups-browsed: Numeric IDs for GSources of the glib event
loop must be positive integers greater than zero according
to the documentation of the g_source_get_id() function.
Taken care of this at all places.

* cups-browsed: Added conditionals so that it also builds with
CUPS 1.5.x (but then withou support for automatically creating
queues for IPP network printers). Thanks to Johannes Meixner
from SUSE for the patch (Bug #1268).

* Ricoh-PDF_Printer-PDF.ppd: Added PPD file for Ricoh\'s PDF
printers (experimental). Thanks to Ulrich Wehner from Ricoh
for the file.
- Remove upstream merged patch:

* fix-create_local_queue-ifndef-HAVE_CUPS_1_6.diff

Fri Mar 20 13:00:00 2015 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- For SLE12 build it with traditional CUPS 1.5.4 to ensure
it works on SLE12 both with CUPS 1.7.5 and CUPS 1.5.4.

Fri Mar 20 13:00:00 2015 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- fix-create_local_queue-ifndef-HAVE_CUPS_1_6.diff
makes it compile again without errors also for CUPS <= 1.5.4
by excluding code that uses CUPS >= 1.6 specific stuff,
in particular by skipping create_local_queue for non-CUPS
printer broadcasts for CUPS <= 1.5.4, see the upstream bug
https://bugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1268

Thu Mar 12 13:00:00 2015 tchvatalAATTsuse.com
- Reenable threads, seems to work fine. If there are thread
related issues assign the bug to me.

Thu Mar 12 13:00:00 2015 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Version upgrade to 1.0.67
Changes in 1.0.67:

* cups-browsed: Use g_source_remove() instead of
g_source_destroy() for killing auto shutdown timers
(Ubuntu bug #1427344).

Sat Mar 7 13:00:00 2015 tchvatalAATTsuse.com
- Do no longer create foomatic-rip symlink that is now done
by make install command (see linuxfoundation.org bug #1255
and the entry dated \"Mon Aug 25 15:30:37 CEST 2014\" below).
- Fix postun call on cups-browsed to call right rpm macro

Sat Mar 7 13:00:00 2015 tchvatalAATTsuse.com
- Version bump to 1.0.66:

* Many fixes in cups-browsed in particular a SECURITY FIX:
Fixed a bug in the remove_bad_chars() failing to reliably
filter out illegal characters if there are two or more
subsequent illegal characters, allowing execution of arbitrary
commands with the rights of the \"lp\" user, using forged print
service announcements on DNS-SD servers
(CVE-2015-2265, boo#921753, linuxfoundation.org bug #1265).

* Compat code for new poppler.

* For detailed listing see NEWS file in documentation.
- Use .xz for tarball, bit smaller, adds dep on xz, no biggie

Mon Nov 10 13:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- During installation of a whole openSUSE system
cups-filters-ghostscript can be installed before cups
and then there is no /usr/share/cups/mime/ directory
so that it is created if needed (bnc#904652).

Mon Aug 25 14:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- A /usr/bin/foomatic-rip -> /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip
symlink is added to the cups-filters-foomatic-rip sub-package
to make our lsb RPM installable again (bnc#892604).
LSB currently requires /usr/bin/foomatic-rip but future LSB
will require /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip see
https://lsbbugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3900

Mon Aug 25 14:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Version upgrade to 1.0.58
Changes in 1.0.58 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* pdftoraster: Changed ICC profile get function to accept a
PPD fallback profile.

* pdftoraster: Fixed handling of cupsColorSpaces 18,19,20.

* rastertopdf: Grayscale color conversion now properly inverts
bits.

* rastertopdf: Implemented basic 8bit->8bit color space
conversions.

* rastertopdf: Added black point compensation.

* rastertopdf: Added handling of color rendering intent.

* gstoraster, imagetoraster, pdftoraster, rastertopclx,
rastertopdf, foomatic-rip: Use color management functions in
libcupsfilters.

* libcupsfilters: Modified code formatting and documentation in
the color management functions.

* libcupsfilters: Fixed string handling and added debug log
messages in the color management functions.

* libcupsfilters: Fixed Adobe RGB matrix for proper rendering
(transpose)

* libcupsfilters: Moved color management functions from the
individual filters to the libcupsfilters library.
- Version upgrade to 1.0.57
Changes in 1.0.57 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* Build system: Explicitly link to libm as -lm was dropped
from cups-config --libs.

* libcupsfilters, foomaticrip, gstoraster, imagetoraster,
pdftoraster, rastertopclx, rastertopdf: Handle absence of
colord or D-Bus gracefully (Ubuntu bug #1356405).
- Version upgrade to 1.0.56
Changes in 1.0.56 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* Major regression fix in cups-browsed (introduced in 1.0.55
by no longer creating a local queue pointing to a remote
raw queue that causes no longer creating local queues for
traditional CUPS Browsing remote CUPS queues):
Do not consider a remote CUPS queue as raw if the TXT record
is NULL as for queues broadcasted by the legacy CUPS method
the TXT record does not exist. Now consider a queue with
NULL TXT record only as raw if the domain entry is not empty
which tells that the queue is Bonjour-broadcasted
(linuxfoundation.org bug #1223).

* cups-browsed: Do also not mark a discovered printer as
already provided by another server when the other server\'s
queue has \"unconfirmed\" status. Mark the other queue with
\"disappeared\" or \"unconfirmed\" status as duplicate of the
discovered printer so that the new queue for the discovered
printer does not get removed when the entry for the other
queue times out.

* rastertopdf: Some code polishing and removal of now unneeded
functions

* rastertopdf: Reduced color space handling to only
PWG-supported color spaces

* rastertopdf: Added colorspace calibration function; included
optional \"/Alternate\" PDF key for ICC profile embedding

* rastertopdf: Colorspace sRGB now embeds srgb icc profile;
implemented ICC Profile embedding (PDF 1.3 spec)

* rastertopdf: Added basic color calibration

* rastertopdf: Implemented ICC Profile creation code for IPP
Everywhere (from PWG raster)

* pdftoraster: Added colord handling of ICC profiles

Wed Jul 30 14:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Version upgrade to 1.0.55
Changes in 1.0.55 (excerpt - for details see the NEWS file):

* pdftopdf: Fixed manual duplex by adding a blank page to even
pages if the total number of pages of the document is odd.
Otherwise the last page of the document would stay in
the input tray. This fixes also a side effect as the set of
even pages reducing to a zero page job if the job consists
of only one page, making Poppler\'s pdftops error out
(Ubuntu bug #1340435).

* cups-browsed: Do not mark a discovered printer as already
provided by another server when the other server\'s queue has
\"disappeared\" status. This queue can be from the same server
before it changed its name.

* cups-browsed: Do not create a local queue pointing to a
remote raw queue (Ubuntu bug #1335211).

* foomatic-rip, imagetoraster, pdftoraster, rastertopclx,
rastertopdf: Added colord \"device_inhibit\" support for
color-managed filters.

* bannertopdf: Fixed \"Printer Location\" and \"Driver Version\"
entries on test page/banners (linuxfoundation.org bug #1209).

* bannertopdf: Added new PDF template files which contain the
text strings appropriate to the banners, before the banners
were all equal, without text (linuxfoundation.org bug #1209).

* pstopdf: Use \"grep -E\" instead of \"grep -P\" as the latter
generates executable code and executes it, requiring
\"execmem\" privileges which could be not available in some
security policies. Thanks to Tim Waugh from Red Hat for the
patch (Red Hat bug #1079534).

* pdftoraster: Fixed segfault caused by introduction of
\"no-color-management\" option (linuxfoundation.org bug #1214).

* libcupsfilters: Let cupsRasterParseIPPOptions() also accept
\"pwg-raster-document-type\" settings with hyphen between
color space name and color depth.
- Our separated source files classified.pdf confidential.pdf
secret.pdf standard.pdf topsecret.pdf unclassified.pdf (see
the entry below dated \"Thu Jun 12 17:27:56 CEST 2014\") are
no longer needed because it is now provided in the upstream
sources (see \"linuxfoundation.org bug #1209\" entries above).
- Added CVE-2014-4336 CVE-2014-4337 bnc#883543 and
CVE-2014-4338 bnc#883536 to the matching entry below
dated \"Mon Apr 28 10:49:21 CEST 2014\" because those CVEs
and bncs have not been known at that time (cf. bnc#871327
therein comment#47 and bnc#883307 therein comment#2).

Thu Jun 12 14:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Have different header texts for the PDF-BANNER printouts
(same headers as on the CUPS <= 1.5.4 banner pages):
Provide PDF template files classified.pdf confidential.pdf
secret.pdf standard.pdf topsecret.pdf unclassified.pdf and
modify the matching /usr/share/cups/banners/ template files
accordingly to use those PDF templates
(see https://bugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1209).

Wed Jun 11 14:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Version upgrade to 1.0.54
Changes in 1.0.54 (excerpt):

* pdftoraster: Support for output in the color spaces 18
(CUPS_CSPACE_SW, sGray), 19 (CUPS_CSPACE_SRGB, sRGB), and 20
(CUPS_CSPACE_ADOBERGB, Adobe RGB). No color management
appropriate to these color spaces is added yet.

* rastertopdf: Added new filter to convert PWG Raster input
into a PDF file (using QPDF). This filter makes CUPS
supporting the PWG Raster input format which is required to
be supported by IPP Everywhere printers, making a shared
CUPS queue emulating an IPP Everywhere printer. This is a
first implementation which supports the black, RGB, CMYK,
sGray, sRGB, and Adobe RGB color spaces (all mapped to
DeviceGray, DeviceRGB, and DeviceCMYK resp. in the PDF
output) with 1, 8, and 16 bits per component color
depth. sGray, sRGB, and Adobe RGB are currently also mapped
to DeviceGray and DeviceRGB and do not have the correct
color management yet, so color output is not absolutely
correct. Note that mime.types of CUPS up to 1.7.2 has a bug
which prevents PWG Raster to be recognized, the
\"priority(100)\" of the rule needs to be changed to
\"priority(150)\".

* cups-browsed: Create local queues also to access classes on
remote CUPS servers (Ubuntu bug #1313741).

* cups-browsed: Let a newly discovered printer not only
overtaking an existing printer entry if it is from the same
host (usually IPP -> IPPS) or without host entry
(unconfirmed local queue from previous cups-browsed session)
but also if it is marked disappeared. So printer entries get
correctly migrated when things like a host name change of
the remote server happen.

* cups-browsed: Always do case-insensitive comparing of
strings, as CUPS queue names and URIs are case-insensitive
(CUPS STR #4411).

- Version upgrade to 1.0.53
Changes in 1.0.53:

* foomatic-rip: Fixed segfault when creating log file, see
https://bugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1206

* cups-browsed: SECURITY FIX: Fix on usage of the
\"BrowseAllow\" directive in cups-browsed.conf. Before, if the
argument of a \"BrowseAllow\" directive is not understood it
is treated as the directive not having been there, allowing
any host if this was the only \"BrowseAllow\" directive. Now
we treat this as a directive which no host can fulfill, not
allowing any host if it was the only one. No \"BrowseAllow\"
directive means access for all, as before, see
https://bugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1204
(CVE-2014-4338 bnc#883536 and bnc#871327 therein comment#23
and subsequent comments).

* cups-browsed: SECURITY FIX: Further improvement on the fix
in 1.0.51 as it was insufficient. In addition, some fixes
against OOB access are done (CVE-2014-4336 CVE-2014-4337
bnc#883543 and bnc#871327 therein comment#30 and subsequent
comments).
- Removed the \"# BrowseAllow cups.example.com\" example line in
/etc/cups/cups-browsed.conf because hostnames do not work, see
https://bugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1205

Thu Apr 24 14:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Split cups-browsed into a cups-filters-cups-browsed sub-package
so that cups-browsed can be installed without all the other
stuff from cups-filters (bnc#873204).
- Have libcupsfilters.so.
* in the cups-filters-ghostscript
sub-package because gstoraster is linked with libcupsfilters
so that now cups-filters-foomatic-rip requires
cups-filters-ghostscript which is still o.k. because
cups-filters-ghostscript does not require cups-filters
(cf. the entry dated \"Thu Apr 10 10:22:25 CEST 2014\" below).
- Do no longer rename installed /usr/share/cups/banners/
* files
and the installed /usr/share/cups/data/testprint
(cf. the entry dated \"Fri Aug 30 12:53:57 CEST 2013\" below)
because since CUPS 1.7.2 those files are no longer provided
in our cups RPM package because since CUPS >= 1.6
the CUPS banners and testprint do no longer work because
there is no longer a filter for Linux that can convert
the CUPS banner files. Since CUPS >= 1.6 only the banners
and testprint in cups-filters work (bnc#873376).
For CUPS <= 1.5.4 (where CUPS banners and testprint works)
this does not make a difference because the cups-filters
main package conflicts with CUPS <= 1.5.4.

Thu Apr 10 14:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Have libcupsfilters.so.
* in the cups-filters-foomatic-rip
sub-package because foomatic-rip is linked with libcupsfilters
so that it must be in the cups-filters-foomatic-rip sub-package
to ensure the cups-filters-foomatic-rip sub-package can be
installed on its own without a RPM requirement for the
cups-filters main package which would cause conflicts
with CUPS <= 1.5.4 in particular when building packages
with CUPS <= 1.5.4 that have foomatic-rip as build requirement
(e.g. hplip via \"BuildRequires: foomatic-filters\").

Tue Apr 8 14:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Version upgrade to 1.0.52
Changes in 1.0.52 (excerpt):

* texttopdf, imagetopdf, imagetoraster:
Range-check paper dimensions and margins taken
from the PPD file and correct them if needed, see
https://bugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1195

Thu Apr 3 14:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Version upgrade to 1.0.51

* cups-browsed: SECURITY FIX to prevent arbitrary code
injection into the System V interface scripts generated for
queues for discovered native IPP printers by a malicious IPP
print service with forged make/model and/or PDL string
(CVE-2014-2707 bnc#871327).
- Version upgrade to 1.0.50
Changes in 1.0.50 (excerpt):

* pdftops: Let old HP LaserJet printers (model number without
letter, like \"LaserJet 3\" or \"LaserJet 4000\") use Poppler
instead of Ghostscript.

* pdftops: Improved workaround for Toshiba printers. Instead
of using Poppler do not emit TrueType fonts with Ghostscript.

Thu Mar 27 13:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Provide foomatic-filters with the exact foomatic-rip version
that is included in cups-filters and conflict with any other
foomatic-filters version (bnc#870621).

Wed Mar 26 13:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Upgrade to current tarball cups-filters-1.0-20140326.tar.gz
that is is version 1.0.49 plus the fix for
https://bugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1187
\"percent-encode component parts of the CUPS device-URI\"
see also (bnc#869692).
- Prepare spec files to build both releases and current tarballs
easily in the future by using special different version strings.

Tue Mar 25 13:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Version upgrade to 1.0.49
Changes in 1.0.49 (excerpt):

* pdftops: Fixed typo which always made PostScript level 2 being
generated when using Poppler\'s pdftops.
Changes in 1.0.48 (excerpt):

* cups-browsed: Fix for a crash which happens on Bonjour reports
of printers without \"product\", \"usb_MDL\", and \"ty\" fields
Changes in 1.0.47 (excerpt):

* pdftoopvp: SECURITY FIX for CVE-2013-6474, CVE-2013-6475,
and CVE-2013-6476: Introductionof gmallocn and gmallocn3
to protect against arbitrary code execution with the
privileges of the \"lp\" user via malicious PDF files. Also
restrict the directory from where OPVP drivers can get
loaded.

* urftopdf: SECURITY FIX for CVE-2013-6473: Two heap-based
buffer overflow flaws in urftopdf. If a malicious URF file
were processed it could lead to arbitrary code execution
with the privileges of the \"lp\" user.

* cups-browsed: Check for changes of the URI of a queue which
we have created and correct the URI if needed
Changes in 1.0.46 (excerpt):

* gstoraster: Ignore SIGCHLD, rely on waitpid instead and
fix two instances of insufficient EINTR handling.
Changes in 1.0.45 (excerpt):

* cups-browsed: Added auto-shutdown feature for on-demand use
of cups-browsed (for example on mobile devices). With auto
shutdown active, cups-browsed terminates after a certain
time interval (30 sec by default) without having any remote
printer to make available locally. The mode can be turned
on, turned off (default) or set to automatically be off
while avahi-daemon is running an on otherwise (controlled by
avahi-daemon running on-demand). The mode and the timeout
interval can be selected by command line options, the
configuration file, and sending signals to cups-browsed
(on/off only).

* cups-browsed: To make Bonjour-discovered printers locally
available avahi-daemon does not need to be started before
cups-browsed and does not need to stay continuously running
while cups-browsed is running. Bonjour-discovered printers
are now added whenever avahi-daemon starts and removed
whenever avahi-daemon stops and cups-browsed keeps running.

* pdftops: Log command lines of renderer (Ghostscript, pdftops,
pdftocairo, acroread) and of pstops in CUPS\' error_log (in
debug mode).
Changes in 1.0.44 (excerpt):

* README: Documented the \"hybrid\" choice for the PDF renderer
in the pdftops filter.
Changes in 1.0.43 (excerpt):

* cups-browsed: When automatically setting up a PPD-less print
queue for an IPP network printer add make/model info as an
additional \"make-and-model\" command line option to the call
of the pdftoippprinter filter, this way filters can do
make/model-specific exceptions.

* pdftops: Ignore \"landscape\", \"orientation-requested\",
\"fit-to-page\", and any page geometry options. The first two
do not make sense on PDF input and therefore should only be
used in ...topdf filters used before pdftopdf, the others
are already taken care of by pdftopdf so that pdftops gets
pages with print-ready page geometry.

* pdftopdf: If there is no PPD file or no
\"
*LandscapeOrientation:\" keyword in the PPD file, rotate
counterclockwise, not clockwise to fit a landscape-oriented
page on a portrait-oriented sheet.

* pstopdf: Support for the \"landscape\" and
\"orientation-requested\" options.

* pdftops: After fixing the output of rotated PDF pages
(usually landscape-oriented pages rotated by pdftopdf) in
Poppler (Poppler/freedesktop.org bug #72312) corrected the
use of \"pdftops -origpagesizes\" in pdftops appropriately.
Changes in 1.0.42 (excerpt):

* pdftoraster: Take into account rotate field in PDF header,
when pdftopdf rotates a page to fit the paper it sets the
rotate field and does not swap the width and height entries.

* cups-browsed: Fixed several memory leaks by adding missing
free() calls and removing an unneeded strdup().

* foomatic-rip: Moved foomatic-rip\'s upstream home from the
foomatic-filters package to cups-filters, to make it easier
for distributions to ship and maintain a complete printing
stack and also to make upstream maintenance and development
easier.

* foomatic-rip: Removed support for all the non-CUPS printing
environments as they are discontinued upstream. Now
foomatic-rip only works as a CUPS filter and in a
spooler-less direct mode, where the latter is mainly
for testing and debugging.
Changes in 1.0.41 (excerpt):

* cups-browsed: Added support for automatic PPD-less setup of
print queues for IPP printers discovered on the network via
Bonjour. Supported are printers with known languages (PWG
Raster, PDF, PostScript, PCL XL, PCL 5c/e), especially also
IPP Everywhere printers. This functionality is especially
ment for mobile devices to be able to print without printer
setup tool and without printer driver/PPD collection.

* pdftoippprinter: New filter for PPD-less printing. The filter
will be configured as System-V interface script for a print
queue for a discovered IPP network printer generated by
cups-browsed.

* cups-browsed: Fixed socket leaks in recent IPP subscriptions
changes.
- Since cups-filters version 1.0.42 foomatic-rip is also
provided by cups-filters so that there is a file conflict
with the foomatic-filters package (both provide
/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip and
/usr/share/man/man1/foomatic-rip). Therefore foomatic-rip
is separated in the sub-package cups-filters-foomatic-rip
and only that sub-package conflicts with foomatic-filters.

Thu Mar 13 13:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Added \"Recommends: poppler-tools\" because /usr/bin/pdftops
(provided by poppler-tools) is needed (but not required
for non-PostScript printers) to print PDFs on PostScript
printers (bnc#868148).

Thu Jan 30 13:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Moved /usr/lib/libcupsfilters.so /usr/lib/libcupsfilters.so
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/libcupsfilters.pc /usr/include/fontembed/
*
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/libfontembed.pc /usr/include/cupsfilters/
*
to the cups-filters-devel sub-package to fix rpmlint
\"devel-file-in-non-devel-package\" errors.

Fri Jan 10 13:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Split /usr/share/cups/ppdc/escp.h and /usr/share/cups/ppdc/pcl.h
into a cups-filters-devel sub-package and let cups-filters-devel
conflict with cups-devel < 1.6. because up to CUPS 1.5.4
those files are provided by the cups-devel package
(see the next entry below).

Thu Jan 9 13:00:00 2014 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Conflict with CUPS < 1.6 because up to CUPS 1.5.4
the following files are provided by the cups binary RPM package
/usr/lib/cups/filter/commandtoescpx
/usr/lib/cups/filter/commandtopclx
/usr/lib/cups/filter/imagetops
/usr/lib/cups/filter/imagetoraster
/usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops
/usr/lib/cups/filter/rastertoescpx
/usr/lib/cups/filter/rastertopclx
/usr/lib/cups/filter/texttops
/usr/lib/cups/backend/parallel
/usr/lib/cups/backend/serial
and the following files are provided by the cups-devel package
/usr/share/cups/ppdc/escp.h
/usr/share/cups/ppdc/pcl.h

Thu Dec 19 13:00:00 2013 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Split binary RPM sub-package cups-filters-ghostscript
which is needed for Ghostscript version upgrade to 9.10.
Since Ghostscript version 9.10 the CUPS filters
gstoraster and gstopxl are removed from Ghostscript.
Those filters are now provided by cups-filters.
The binary RPM sub-package cups-filters-ghostscript
provides only those CUPS filters for Ghostscript.
This way cups-filters-ghostscript can be used
with the traditional CUPS up to version 1.5.4
where the other filters, backends, and cups-browsed
from cups-filters would cause conflicts because
CUPS <= 1.5.4 already provides them. In contrast
for CUPS versions since 1.6 the whole cups-filters
is usually needed (but not strictly required).

Wed Oct 30 13:00:00 2013 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Version upgrade to 1.0.40
Changes in 1.0.40 (excerpt):

* pdftops: Introduced new \"hybrid\" renderer: Here usually
Ghostscript is used, but if the printer is a Brother,
Minolta, or Konica Minolta Poppler\'s pdftops gets used. This
is a quirk rule to work around bugs in the PS interpreters
of the printers.
Changes in 1.0.39 (excerpt):

* pdftops: Fix for landscape PDF handling.
Changes in 1.0.38 (excerpt):

* pdftops: Added \"-dNOINTERPOLATE\" to the Ghostscript command
line for quicker processing of embedded bitmaps.

* pstopdf: Added \"-dUseCIEColor\" to the Ghostscript command
line to assure compatibility with newer Ghostscript
versions (9.08 and newer).
Changes in 1.0.37 (excerpt):

* Added example configuration files for systemd and Upstart, see
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=735404#c46
(obsoletes cups-browsed.service).

* Build system: Make sure that gstoraster gets linked against
the libcupsfilters of the currently built package and not
of the system (obsoletes broken-autotools.patch).

* cupsfilters.convs: Reworked the cost factors of the filters
to avoid bogus filter chains like pstotiff|imagetopdf
instead of pstopdf|pdftopdf for PostScript->PDF, see
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=735404#c53

* cups-browsed: Fixed building with CUPS 1.5.x and older,
ippSetVersion() was missing under the accessor function
definitions for backward compatibility
(obsoletes cups-15-compat.patch).
For details see the NEWS and README files.
- cups-browsed.service is obsolete (provided in upstream sources).
- broken-autotools.patch is obsolete (fixed in upstream sources).
- cups-15-compat.patch is obsolete (fixed in upstream sources).

Fri Aug 30 14:00:00 2013 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Rename installed /usr/share/cups/banners/
* files
and the installed /usr/share/cups/data/testprint
because those files are also provided by CUPS
but CUPS provides them in a different format and
I not want to overwrite CUPS files but I do not like
to delete the cups-filters version of those files
instead I like to provide them at least for now as well
so that we could evaluate which ones we may use finally.

Wed Aug 21 14:00:00 2013 tchvatalAATTsuse.com
- Version bump to 1.0.36:

* new manpages

* many small adjustments see NEWS
- Remove obsolete patch fix_cups-browsed_init_script.patch
- Remove obsolete patch BZR_revision_7085_7084.diff
- Add new patch to compat with old cups cups-15-compat.patch
- Add new patch to fix borked autotools broken-autotools.patch
- Adjust the service call for older distros it was in /sbin
- Enable tests

Fri Aug 2 14:00:00 2013 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Added support for systemd (mainly done by tchvatalAATTsuse.com).
cups-browsed.service is openSUSE\'s systemd unit file.
Nevertheless a traditional SysVInit script
/etc/init.d/cups-browsed is still available.

Tue Jul 30 14:00:00 2013 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- BZR_revision_7085_7084.diff makes the code working
with Poppler >= 0.23.x see

that provides in particular various enhancements for
cups-browsed, for details see the NEWS and README files.

Wed Mar 13 13:00:00 2013 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Version upgrade to cups-filters-1.0.30
- cups-filters-1.0.30 does no longer build for openSUSE 12.1
because configure requests \'glib-2.0 >= 2.30.2\' but
version of GLib in openSUSE 12.1 is 2.30.1.

Fri Jan 4 13:00:00 2013 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- Version upgrade to cups-filters-1.0.29
that adds cups-browsed.
- fix_cups-browsed_init_script.patch
adds LSB header line to cups-browsed init script
otherwise the openSUSE brp-55-boot-scripts aborts build
with \"ERROR: found one or more broken init or boot scripts\"
and this patch changes \"$avahi-daemon $cups\" to \"avahi cupsd\"
because there is no $avahi-daemon $cups in /etc/insserv.conf
but /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon \"Provides: avahi\"
and /etc/init.d/cups \"Provides: cupsd\"
otherwise RPMLINT reports \"init-script-undefined-dependency\"
and this patch removes runlevel 4 from Default-Start
otherwise RPMLINT reports \"init-script-runlevel-4\".

Fri Jan 4 13:00:00 2013 mmeisterAATTsuse.com
