CUPS 1.2.12 fixes several file typing issues, a bad error message in the
scheduler, a web interface setting problem, and a bug in the PHP language
binding. It also includes an updated Italian translation. Changes include:
* The PHP cups_print_file() function crashed if the options array
contained non-string option values
* The image/tiff file matching rule incorrectly identified some text files
as TIFF files
* The filter(7) man page incorrectly documented the "PAGE: total #-pages"
message
* PCL text files were mis-identified as HP-GL/2 and caused the HP-GL/2
filter to hang
* When printing to a queue with user ACLs, the scheduler incorrectly
returned a quota error instead of a "not allowed to print" error
* cupsaddsmb could get in a loop if no printer drivers were installed
* cupsRasterReadHeader() did not byte-swap the header properly when
compiled with certain versions of GCC.
* The IPP backend did not send the document-format attribute for filtered
jobs
* Some PPD files could cause a crash in ppdOpen2
* The web admin interface incorrectly handled the "share printers" and
"show remote printers" settings
* The scheduler's log messages about AuthClass and AuthGroupName advised
using a replacement directive but had the wrong syntax
* Updated the PostScript/PJL and HP-GL/2 MIME rules to look in the first
4k of the file, not just the first 1k
* Updated the Italian localization
the owner of all installed files is a non-root user. This change
affects most packages that require special users or groups by making
them use the specified unprivileged user and group instead.
(1) Add two new variables PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS to
unprivileged.mk. These two variables are lists of other bmake
variables that define package-specific users and groups. Packages
that have user-settable variables for users and groups, e.g. apache
and APACHE_{USER,GROUP}, courier-mta and COURIER_{USER,GROUP},
etc., should list these variables in PKG_USERS_VARS and PKG_GROUPS_VARS
so that unprivileged.mk can know to set them to ${UNPRIVILEGED_USER}
and ${UNPRIVILEGED_GROUP}.
(2) Modify packages to use PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS.
CUPS 1.2.11 fixes several build system, printing, PPD, and IPP conformance
issues. It also fixes a crash bug in the scheduler when printing to files
in non-existent directories.
This is based on a suggestion by Yorick Hardy, who reports that it
improved behavior. Without the patch, the cups usb driver tries to
read status from ulpt(4) (for most printers), and this results in no
output.
pkgsrc changes: fix locale path
patch a bug in pstops's n-up handling (reported to upstream)
CUPS 1.2.10 fixes the init script used to start the scheduler, a recursion
bug in the pdftops filter, and several other issues reported after the
1.2.9 release. Changes include:
* ppdLocalize() now supports localizing for Japanese using the "jp" locale
name used by the ppdmerge program from the CUPS DDK 1.1.0
* _cupsAdminSetServerSettings() did not support changing of top-level
directives as designed.
* The init script path check was broken.
* CUPS incorrectly used the attribute "notify-recipient" instead of
"notify-recicpient-uri" in several places
* Fixed a configure script bug on MirBSD
* The pdftops filter did not limit the amount of recursion of page sets
* Custom page sizes with fractional point sizes did not work
* The lpoptions command would crash when adding or removing options on a
system with no printers
CUPS 1.2.9 fixes several printing issues and scheduler crash bug.
Changes include:
* The scheduler did not use the default job-sheets (banners) for implicit
classes
* The scheduler could crash when listing complete jobs that had been
unloaded from memory
* The French localization was doubled up
* Build system fixes for several platforms
* The scheduler's openssl certificate generation code was broken on some
platforms
* The scheduler's log rotation check for devices was broken
* The LPD mini-daemon did not handle the document-format option correctly
* The pdftops filter ignored the "match" size option in the pdftops.conf
file
* cupstestppd now validates UTF-8 text strings in globalized PPD files
* The outputorder=reverse option did not work with all printers
* Classes containing other classes did not always work
* Printer location and description information was lost if the
corresponding string contained the "#" character
* cupsRemoveOption() did not work properly
* The USB backend did not work with some USB to parallel cables on Mac OSX.
* The test page did not print the rulers properly on large media sizes
* The text filter could crash when pretty printing certain types of files
ok'ed jlam a while back.
CUPS 1.2.8 adds a French localization, updates the Japanese and Spanish
localizations, and fixes several web interface, printing, and networking
bugs.
CUPS 1.2.7 adds several Mac OS X improvements, implements timeouts in the
SSL negotiation code, and fixes the bounding box generated by the PostScript
filter, bidirectional support in the USB backend, and another case where the
lpstat command could hang.
CUPS 1.2.6 fixes some compile errors, localization of the web interface on
Mac OS X, bugs in the lpc and lpstat commands, and backchannel support in
the parallel backend.
CUPS 1.2.5 fixes minor printing, networking, and documentation issues and
adds support for older versions of DBUS and a translation for Estonian.
CUPS 1.2.4 fixes a number of web interface, scheduler, and CUPS API
issues.
CUPS 1.2.3 fixes a number of web interface, networking, remote printing,
and CUPS API issues.
CUPS 1.2.2 fixes several build, platform, notification, and printing bugs.
CUPS 1.2.1 fixes several build, platform, and printing bugs.
CUPS 1.2.0 is the first stable feature release in the 1.2.x series and
includes over 90 new features and changes since CUPS 1.1.23, including a
greatly improved web interface and "plug-and-print" support for many local
and network printers.
and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.
For example, "make show-buildlink3" in fonts/Xft2 displays:
zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat

PKGLOCALEDIR and which install their locale files directly under
${PREFIX}/${PKGLOCALEDIR} and sort the PLIST file entries. From now
on, pkgsrc/mk/plist/plist-locale.awk will automatically handle
transforming the PLIST to refer to the correct locale directory.
RECOMMENDED is removed. It becomes ABI_DEPENDS.
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED.foo becomes BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).
CAN-2005-3191
CAN-2005-3192
The fixes were largely copied from xpdf-3.01pl1.patch from foolabs.com;
however, patch-be for Stream.cxx also includes a proper fix for
CAN-2005-3191 which was only partially fixed in the foolabs.com patch.
Bump the PKGREVISION to 4.

definition in all affected packages. For those that are not caught, an
additional check is placed into bsd.pkginstall.mk.
as the INSTALL and DEINSTALL scripts no longer distinguish between
the two types of files. Drop SUPPORT_FILES{,_PERMS} and modify the
packages in pkgsrc accordingly.
"A vulnerability has been reported in CUPS, which can be exploited by malicious
people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) on a vulnerable system.
When processing a PDF file, bounds checking was not correctly performed on
some fields. This could cause the pdftops filter (running as user "lp") to
crash."

Patch from RedHat.
USE_TOOLS and any of "autoconf", "autoconf213", "automake" or
"automake14". Also, we don't need to call the auto* tools via
${ACLOCAL}, ${AUTOCONF}, etc., since the tools framework takes care
to symlink the correct tool to the correct name, so we can just use
aclocal, autoconf, etc.
And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.
An overflow check introduced earlier (for CAN-2004-0888) was never
triggered on 64-bit systems because 64-bit arithmetics was used there.
Sprinkle some casts to int su that the overflow can happen.
This fix is similar to the redhat one. The fix for similar code
in print/teTeX-bin looks much cleaner, but since cups already contains
the wrong redhad fix, I've chosen to stay close to the original.
bump PKGREVISION
within NetBSD-current's bsd.own.mk, which conflicts with its usage in
pkgsrc. The package that use USE_PAM have been converted to use the
bsd.options.mk framework. This should fix PR pkg/29257.
It includes the correct buildlink3.mk file from either Linux-PAM
(security/PAM) or OpenPAM (security/openpam) and eventually will
support solaris-pam. pam.buildlink3.mk will:
* set PAMBASE to the base directory of the PAM files;
* set PAM_TYPE to the PAM implementation used.
There are two variables that can be used to tweak the selection of
the PAM implementation:
PAM_DEFAULT is a user-settable variable whose value is the default
PAM implementation to use.
PAM_ACCEPTED is a package-settable list of PAM implementations
that may be used by the package.
Modify most packages that include PAM/buildlink3.mk to include
pam.buildlink3.mk instead.
- The scheduler's is_path_absolute() code could cause a DoS (STR #1042)

- The USB backend used the wrong size status variable when checking the
printer status (STR #1017)
- The scheduler did not delete classes from other classes or implicit
classes, which could cause a crash (STR #1015)
- The IPP backend now logs the remote print job ID at log level NOTICE

under share/examples/rc.d. The variable name already was named
RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR.
This is from ideas from Greg Woods and others.
Also bumped PKGREVISION for all packages using RCD_SCRIPTS mechanism
(as requested by wiz).
- The lpstat man page incorrectly listed the "-s" option
as using the equivalent of the "-p" option to list the
printers; it uses the "-v" option to list the printers
(STR #986)
- Now allow 0-length reads in the CUPS file API (STR
#985)
- cupsDoFileRequest() now sets cupsLastError() to
IPP_ERROR on network errors (STR #953)
- The pdftops filter didn't scale small pages up to the
output page size when the fitplot option was used (STR
#984)
- Fixed the ipptest program usage message (STR #959)
- Added Spanish man pages (STR #963)
- Fixed the order of comparisons in the client.conf
reading code (STR #971)

Changes 1.1.22rc2:
- The pdftops filter didn't check the range of all
integer attributes (STR #972)
- Documentation corrections (STR #944, STR #946)
- Also sanitize device URI in argv[0] (STR #933)
- cupsRasterReadHeader() didn't swap bytes for the

Changes 1.1.22rc1:
- Now sanitize the device URI that is reported in the
error_log file (STR #920)
- Fixed some memory and file descriptor leaks in the job
dispatch code (STR #921)
- Deleting a printer could cause a crash with browsing
enabled (STR #865, STR #881, STR #928)
- Browsing would turn off if the scheduler got an EAGAIN
error (STR #924)
- The mime.types file didn't recognize PostScript as a

Changes 1.1.21:
- The scheduler did not separate Digest authentication
parameters with commas (STR #882)

sizes (STR #891)
- Removed the remaining scheduler code that did not use
the "close-on-exec" file descriptor flag to speed up

was not printed. It now only removes the file if the
job is successfully created (STR #886)
- Revamped the custom page size orientation fix (STR

- Queue names with 2 periods (e.g. "printer..2") were
not supported (STR #866)

Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".
into the bsd.options.mk framework. Instead of appending to
${PKG_OPTIONS_VAR}, it appends to PKG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS. This causes
the default options to be the union of PKG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS and any
old USE_* and FOO_USE_* settings.
This fixes PR pkg/26590.
for each package can be determined by invoking:
make show-var VARNAME=PKG_OPTIONS_VAR
The old options are still supported unless the variable named in
PKG_OPTIONS_VAR is set within make(1) (usually via /etc/mk.conf).
packages install filters into libexec/cups/filter - which doesn't work
in pkgview land. To work around this disable pkgview installation of
cups until the issues are resolved.

the PKGREVISION. Also remove the unnecessary -preserve-dup-deps argument
to libtool, rename the configure option to --enable-libtool, and remove
the unnecessary bits to deal with libcrypt/libcrypto (buildlink3 does
this for us automatically).
the RCD_SCRIPTS rc.d script(s) to the PLIST.
This GENERATE_PLIST idea is part of Greg A. Woods'
PR #22954.
This helps when the RC_SCRIPTS are installed to
a different ${RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR}. (Later,
the default RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR will be changed
to be more clear that they are the examples.)
These patches also remove the etc/rc.d/ scripts from PLISTs
(of packages that use RCD_SCRIPTS). (This also removes
now unused references from openssh* makefiles. Note that
qmail package has not been changed yet.)
I have been doing automatic PLIST registration for RC_SCRIPTS
for over a year. Not all of these packages have been tested,
but many have been tested and used.
Somethings maybe to do:
- a few packages still manually install the rc.d scripts to
hard-coded etc/rc.d. These need to be fixed.
- maybe remove from mk/${OPSYS}.pkg.dist mtree specifications too.
by moving the inclusion of buildlink3.mk files outside of the protected
region. This bug would be seen by users that have set PREFER_PKGSRC
or PREFER_NATIVE to non-default values.
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES should be ordered so that for any package in the
list, that package doesn't depend on any packages to the left of it
in the list. This ordering property is used to check for builtin
packages in the correct order. The problem was that including a
buildlink3.mk file for <pkg> correctly ensured that <pkg> was removed
from BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and appended to the end. However, since the
inclusion of any other buildlink3.mk files within that buildlink3.mk
was in a region that was protected against multiple inclusion, those
dependencies weren't also moved to the end of BUILDLINK_PACKAGES.
the normal case when BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.<pkg> isn't specified, it receives
a value only once due to the multiple inclusion protection in the
bulldlink3.mk files. In the case where a package includes several
buildlink3.mk files that each want a slightly different version of another
dependency, having BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.<pkg> be a list allows for the
strictest <pkg> dependency to be matched.
Bug fixes:
- The HTTP code did not use a case-insensitive
comparison when checking for the Basic authentication
method (STR #407)
- The cupsaddsmb program didn't export the new CUPS
driver for Windows properly (STR #390)
- The default landscape orientation was not the same as
that defined in the PPD file (STR #397)
- The pdftops filter incorrectly auto-rotated pages when
the user already had specified the proper orientation
(STR #207)
- The scheduler did not reset the group list when
running CGI and filter processes (STR #185)
Enhancements:
- Updated the pdftops filter to use the annotation flags
instead of the subtype to determine whether to print
an annotation (STR #425)
- The pdftops filter no longer needs to create temporary
files with tmpnam (STR #406)
- The scheduler now waits up to 60 seconds before
restarting to allow active jobs to complete printing
and pending requests to be processed (STR #226)
- Added new cupsDoAuthentication(), cupsGetFd(),
cupsGetFile(), cupsPutFd(), and cupsPutFile() functions
to the CUPS API (STR #112)
- The PDF filter always scaled and offset pages; this
caused problems under MacOS X, so now the "fitplot"
option controls whether PDF files are scaled to fit
within the printable area of the page (STR #250)
- Updated the pdftops filter to be based upon Xpdf
2.02pl1 (STR #191)
"Package Makefiles should refer to PKG_SYSCONFBASEDIR instead of
PKG_SYSCONFBASE when they want PKG_SYSCONFDIR stripped of
PKG_SYSCONFSUBDIR. This makes PKG_SYSCONFBASE=/etc work with pkgviews by
installing all config files into /etc/packages/<pkg> instead of
occasionally putting some directly into /etc."
the installed files are not automatically included in the right place in
the system path and need to be either copied in /usr/bin or dealt with in
another way.
The saves a lot of frustration and puzzling esp. for the beginning user.
Change the cupsd rc.d script to REQUIRE slpd. This is needed for the
case where cupsd actually uses SLP to register services (by setting
BrowseProtocols to include "slp") and does nothing otherwise.

* Allow overriding the default paths for "CUPS_SERVERBIN" and
"CUPS_LOCALEDIR" by passing values through the configure script.
This facilitates using custom directory hierarchies as is common in
various packaging systems.
* Allow choosing the man page extension style by passing values
directly through the configure script. This allows overriding the
defaults for an operating system, which can happen in some packaging
systems. Leave the default behaviour unchanged if not specified.
- security fix to scheduler to address a DoS attack
- improve conformance to IPP specification
- miscellaneous bug fixes to server and userland utilities
- plug memory leaks
- bug fixes to SSL code
- the mime.convs file was missing the filter definition for Windows BMP
(image/x-bitmap) files
- improved test suite
- added CUPS support files for Java, Perl, and PHP
- The cups-lpd mini-daemon now sends jobs to the default queue when an
empty queue name (or "lp" and there is no "lp" queue) is sent.
- The scheduler now supports fax queues identified by a "*cupsFax: True"
attribute in the PPD file.
- The scheduler now supports print files that have been compressed using
gzip.
- Added a robots.txt file to the standard install to prevent search
engines from indexing the CUPS server.
- When writing BSD printcap files, the scheduler now includes the rm and
rp attributes, allowing the file to be exported to LPD clients.
- The pdftops filter now scales PDF pages within the printable area of the
page.
- The PostScript filter now supports binary PostScript files and files
beginning with the PJL language escape sequence.
- Fixed the CIE colorspace support code in the image and PS RIPs.
NetBSD, by linking in -lcrypt before -lcrypto in the shared library and

have it be automatically included by bsd.pkg.mk if USE_PKGINSTALL is set
to "YES". This enforces the requirement that bsd.pkg.install.mk be
included at the end of a package Makefile. Idea suggested by Julio M.

to IPP requests. It's controlled by two new variables that may be set in
/etc/rc.conf:
cupsd_wait=YES # set to "YES" to wait for cupsd to detect printers;
# this variable is optional and defaults to "NO".
cupsd_timeout=60 # set to the number of seconds we wait for cupsd
# to respond before we declare it not responding;
# this variable is optional and defaults to "60".
The wait command may also be directly invoked as "/etc/rc.d/cupsd wait".
Bump PKGREVISION of print/cups to 1.
- SECURITY FIX: The scheduler now provides a FileDevice directive to
control whether new printers can be added using device URIs of the form
"file:/filename". The default is to not allow printers with these
device URIs.
- SECURITY FIX: Potential underflow/overflow bug in web interface.
- SECURITY FIX: Race condition in certificate creation.
- SECURITY FIX: Bad URIs in browse packets could be used to exploit the
web interface underflow/overflow bug.
- SECURITY FIX: Some types of Denial of Service attacks were not handled
properly, so once the attack was over the scheduler did not close the
connections immediately on all platforms.
- SECURITY FIXES: Added integer overflow/underflow checks for all image
formats.
- Bug fixes to the scheduler.
- Upgraded pdftops filter to Xpdf 2.01 with fixes for TrueType fonts.
- Added a MaxClientsPerHost configuration directive to provide limited
protection against Denial of Service attacks.
- Bug fixes to the backends and scheduler.
- Bug fixes to the image filters.
- The scheduler now allows accounts authenticated via PAM to not have a
corresponding UNIX account, but group membership still requires the
account name to be listed in the UNIX group file(s)...
- Added some startup performance enhancements to the scheduler so that the
printer object information is regenerated fewer times and the MIME type
database is not filled with lots of empty filters for raw/direct queues.
- The backends now ignore SIGPIPE so that failed job filters will not stop
a print queue.
- User-defined classification strings are now printed verbatim.
- The lpstat command did not allow for destination lists.
- The LPD backend now sends the job title as the print filename.
- Added support for variable sizes in the EPSON dot matrix printer drivers.
This allows for pages as short as 1/2" (1 row of labels) and does not do
an automatic form feed.
- The Solaris USB backend now supports the new device URI syntax.
- The serial backend now enumerates serial ports under MacOS X.
CUPS 1.1.16 adds support for a new CUPS printer driver for Windows
NT/2000/XP that provides accurate page accounting as well as support
for the banner, job billing, job priority, and page label options. The
new release also contains many small bug fixes and enhancements,
including better USB printing support, support for printer names
containing any printable character (123print, my-long-printer-name,
etc.), and French language localization of the web interface and
documentation.
======================================================================
* Removed the pstoraster filter (based on GNU Ghostscript 5.50) and now
* provide the raster "driver" and patch file necessary to use the current
* GNU Ghostscript 7.05 release. Pkgsrc users should install the
* print/ghostscript-esp package.
======================================================================
- Many, many bug fixes.
- Improvements to polling and scheduling of jobs to CUPS and to connected
printers.
- Updated the CUPS license agreement for the new MacOS and OpenSSL license
exceptions.
- The jobs.cgi web interface now handles all job operations, allowing the
administrator to allow "job administrators" or operators to manage jobs
(but not queues) on the server.
- New SCSI printer backend.
- The PostScript filter now supports 6, 9, and 16-up output, as well as new
page-border and number-up-layout options.
- Added ConfigFilePerm and LogFilePerm directives.
- The HTML job operation templates now link back to the destination printer
or class.
- Removed unnecessary fonts and updated the Courier and Symbol fonts to the
latest versions to better support non-ISOLatin1 text.
- The text filter now always embeds the Courier and Symbol fonts to ensure
that they contain the full set of glyphs.
- The PostScript image filter (imagetops) now supports printing CMYK images
using the CMYK colorspace.
- The cupsaddsmb program was updated to use the setdriver command instead of
addprinter.
- The Allow, Deny, BrowseAllow, BrowseDeny, and BrowseAddress directives
now support the network interface names "@LOCAL" and "@IF(name)" for
access control and browsing based on the current interface addresses
instead of fixed names or IP addresses.
- The cupsaddsmb program now supports alternative CUPS and SAMBA server names.
- The PostScript filter now supports the Orientation comment and rotates the
page as needed automatically.
buildlink2.mk files back into the main trunk. This provides sufficient
buildlink2 infrastructure to start merging other packages from the

all dependencies on packages depending on "png" which contain shared
libraries, all for the (imminent) update to the "png" package.
[List courtesy of John Darrow, courtesy of "bulk-build".]
- The ippRead() function did not verify that the
attribute name length or string with language value
was not larger than the read buffer.
- The scheduler set the signal handlers before loading
the configuration files the first time; this prevented
the RunAsUser directive from blocking server reloads.
- Added Swedish message catalog.
- The parallel backend now recognizes the /dev/printers
device directory under Linux 2.4.x.
- MacOS X fixes.
- The cupsaddsmb utility sent the server name after the
user information when executing the rpcclient program.
This caused problems with some versions of SAMBA
2.2.x.
- The IPP backend did not pass the requesting user name
when checking on the print job status. This prevented
it from waiting for the job to complete when
communicating with some IPP implementations that
require it.
CUPS 1.1.13 adds support for the KOI8-R and KOI8-U encodings, message
catalogs for several Russian locales and for Simplified Chinese,
improvements for MacOS X (Darwin) and IRIX, improvements to the PDF,
PostScript, and text filters, status reporting for IPP-based printers
(paper out, etc.), and improvements to the SAMBA driver export facility.
The new release also fixes bugs in the scheduler, the lpstat command, the
CUPS API, and the pstoraster filter.
- Bug fixes.
- Start of internationalization support for banner and PPD files.
- Added support for embedded TrueType fonts in PDF files.
- Added support for PostScript functions in PDF files.
- Added new "cupsaddsmb" utility for exporting CUPS printer drivers to
SAMBA/Windows clients.
- The ippRead() and ipp_read_file() functions could not handle more than
IPP_MAX_VALUES (100) values in a 1setOf attribute. These functions have
been updated to dynamically allocate more memory as needed, and the
IPP_MAX_VALUES constant now represents the allocation increment. [this
caused some versions of the GIMP-print drivers to fail since the number
of media options exceeded 100...]
- The web interfaces did not always quote < and & in things like the job
title. This had the potential for browser-based security violations (on
the browser's machine); bug report from SuSE.
- The scheduler now treats unauthenticated usernames as case-insensitive
when doing quota and allow/deny processing.
- The PostScript filter (pstops) now handles EPS files, adding a showpage
command to the files as needed.
- The cups-lpd mini-daemon did not support anonymous printing (no username
specified). While the username is REQUIRED by RFC-1179, MacOS clients do
not send the REQUIRED username information when printing via LPD.
- The httpConnect*() functions now try all available addresses for a host
when connecting for the first time.
This value may be customized in various ways:
PKG_SYSCONFBASE is the main config directory under which all package
configuration files are to be found.
PKG_SYSCONFSUBDIR is the subdirectory of PKG_SYSCONFBASE under which the
configuration files for a particular package may be found.
PKG_SYSCONFDIR.${PKGBASE} overrides the value of ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR} for a
particular package.
Users will typically want to set PKG_SYSCONFBASE to /etc, or accept the
default location of ${PREFIX}/etc.
This obsoletes the use of CONFDIR, which was active for only 6 days, so no
need to have a workaround to still accept old CONFDIR settings.
bsd.pkg.install.mk:
* Remove old DEINSTALL/INSTALL scripts.
* Move some text printed at POST-INSTALL time into the MESSAGE file.
* Adjust rc.d scripts to respect rc.conf settings, so that the
script may be directly copied into /etc/rc.d.
