pkgsrc changes:
---------------
* gutenprint-lib provides support for some printers as an open source
replacement for prioritary drivers. In case of platforms with low
computation power (e.g.Raspberry Pi 1), we might want to build
gutenprint to only provide PPD files to CUPS without the large set of
dependencies needed for graphics/gimp.
* As gutenprint has been initialy designed to provide printing capability
to GIMP, this option is enabled by default.
pkglint --only "https instead of http" -r -F
With manual adjustments afterwards since pkglint 19.4.4 fixed a few
indentations in unrelated lines.
This mainly affects projects hosted at SourceForce, as well as
freedesktop.org, CTAN and GNU.
* Changes from 5.2.14
1) The following printers have been added:
Epson Expression ET-2600 EcoTank ET
Canon SELPHY CP1300
2) The following printers have seen bugfixes:
Sony UP-CR10L
Sony UP-DR150
Sony UP-DR200
3) Miscellaneous fixes for DNP DS80DX, DNP DS820, Mitsubishi P95D,
Shinko S1245, Sony UP-CR10L, UP-DR150, and UP-DR200, and Kodak
68xx series.
4) The Macintosh uninstaller, which was inadvertently removed from
5.2.14, has been restored.
gutenprint had a workaruond because something it included added
-lgexiv2 to the link link (via libtool) without having it in bl3.
That's fixed, so drop the workaround.
This should be the last part of the renaming operation for print/cups to
print/cups-base.
Rationale: packages depending on CUPS but not relying on a functional
printing setup only need to depend on print/cups-base (equivalent to the
former print/cups). The new print/cups now depends on print/cups-base
and on print/cups-filters, thus directly providing a functional printing
setup. This bump reflects this change of dependency.
As discussed on tech-pkg@
This is with the notable exception of meta-pkgs/desktop-gnome, which I
believe implies a fully functional cups.
This is still missing revision bumps - I'll be right there (first time I
am doing this on so many packages at a time).
As discussed on tech-pkg@
* Changes from 5.2.12
1) Critical bugfix
* Correct mis-defined paper type that collided with standard
A4 paper. This resulted in some Canon and PCL printers
mishandling A4 paper.
2) Added support for the following Epson inkjet printers:
EPSON Artisan 1430
EPSON L210
3) Improvements to the dye-sublimation driver:
* Code optimizations in the dye-sublimation driver, resulting
in a significant (2x-2.7x) boost in performance.
* Added support for the following thermal printer:
Mitsubishi P93DW
* Enhanced support (and bugfixes) for several
dye-sublimation and thermal printers.
4) Improvements to the Gimp plugin
* Compilation fixes when CUPS is not enabled
* Fix non-interactive plugin mode
5) Changes to the Canon driver:
* Added support for many printer models.
* Removed iP100 (unsupported)
* Added duplex support to MP530
* Improved duplex support for sevearl models.
* Corrected black-only and color-only cartridge support for MP230
series
* Improved printer firmware papersize detection when using
automatic paper source selection (Autofeed), by changing paper
width from calculated to a constant value for paper sizes known
to the driver.
* Added several resolution modes for Pro9500
6) Added the Datamax-O'Neil H class series of printers.
7) Added the two Honeywell printers, RP2 (SAV2) and RP4 (SAV4).

Upstream change summary (see NEWS for details):
*) The Ghostscript IJS driver and Foomatic data generator have been
removed. CUPS is ubiquitous on Linux/UNIX systems, and the
Ghostscript IJS driver and Foomatic data are not needed with
CUPS.
*) New/improved support for many dyesub printers, including media
status reporting.
*) Added/improved support for many printers.
*) Removed support for Brother HL-1430.
As of 5.2.11, Gutenprint no longer supports Macintosh OS X
10.5.
Upstream changes are voluminous and have many details and have
therefore been aggressively summarized. See NEWS in the sources.
* Changes from 5.2.10
1) Added support for many following dye sublimation printers.
2) Enhanced support (and bugfixes) for many dye sublimation
printers.
3) Added support for the Datamax-O'Neil PCL printers, the Performance
series (p1115, p1115s, p1120n, p1125, p1725, h8308) and the
Datamax-O'Neil Workstation printer.
Also added common Imperial and Metric label sizes to the Paper
Selection menu.
4) Added support for the following Epson inkjet printers:
EPSON L120
EPSON L210
EPSON L1800 (preliminary)
5) Add support for the following laser printer:
Kyocera FS-1135MFP
6) Canon inkjet driver enhancements:
Added support for many models and multiple enhancements.
7) Canon inkjet driver bugfixes:
6.1 Ink compression fixed
A problem with a new ink level compression added in 5.2.7 had
affected multiple printer models. The bug has been fixed in the
present release, thus all modes previously affected should work
normally.
