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.
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.
- The scheduler's is_path_absolute() code could cause a DoS (STR #1042)
- The scheduler's device loading code used the wrong size limits for the
make/model and info parameters (STR #1035)
- The PNG loading code did not use a "long unsigned integer" format
specifier for the width and height (STR #1032)
- The web interface only showed the first 4 or 8 characters of
"{variable-name}" for undefined template variables (STR #1031)
- The hpgltops filter did not handle a common PCL command to enter
HP-GL/2 mode (STR #1037)
- The scheduler no longer sends the page-set option when printing banner
pages (STR #995)
- The hpgltops filter contained two buffer overflows that could
potentially allow remote access to the "lp" account (STR #1024)
- The lppasswd command did not protect against file descriptor or ulimit
attacks (STR #1023)
- The "lpc status" command used the wrong resource path when querying
the list of printers and jobs, causing unnecessary authentication
requests (STR #1018)
- The httpWait() function did not handle signal interruptions (STR #1020)
- 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
instead of INFO (so it shows up in the error_log file...)
- 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)
- cupsLangGet() incorrectly set the current locale (STR
#970)
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
numeric fields properly (STR #930)
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
PJL language name (STR #925)
Changes 1.1.21:
- The scheduler did not separate Digest authentication
parameters with commas (STR #882)
- Fixed some problems with image printing to custom page
sizes (STR #891)
- Removed the remaining scheduler code that did not use
the "close-on-exec" file descriptor flag to speed up
program invocations (STR #890)
- The "lpr -r" command removed the print file even if it
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
#127)
- The lp, lpq, lpr, and lpstat commands now report when
an environment variable is pointing to a non-existent
printer instead of just saying "no default
destination" (STR #879)
- Queue names with 2 periods (e.g. "printer..2") were
not supported (STR #866)
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".
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).
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.
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)
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
