Common UNIX Printing System 1.1.22rc1

Created at 09:00 Oct 04, 2004 by mike, last modified at 13:57 Oct 04, 2004

The first release candidate for version 1.1.22 of the Common UNIX Printing System ("CUPS") is now available for download from the CUPS web site at:

    http://www.cups.org/software.php

In accordance with the CUPS Configuration Management Plan, you now have until Monday, Ocotber 18th to test this release candidate to determine if there are any high-priority problems and report them using the Software Trouble Report form at:

    http://www.cups.org/str.php

Reports sent to the CUPS newsgroups or mailing lists are not automatically entered into the trouble report database and will not influence the final production release of 1.1.22, so it is very important that you report any problems you identify using the form.

CUPS 1.1.22 is a bug fix release which fixes device URI logging, file descriptor and memory leaks, crashes related to printer browsing, and error handling in the browsing code. The new release also adds support for PostScript files from other Windows PostScript drivers.

Changes in CUPS v1.1.22rc1:

        

• 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)
