- SECURITY: The lppasswd program allowed the localization files to be overridden when running in setuid mode (STR #3482)
- Localization updates (STR #3352, STR #3409, STR #3422, STR #3452, STR #3473, STR #3502)
- Documentation updates (STR #3451, STR #3504)
- The IPP backend now sets the printer-state-message to "Ready to print." at the end of a successful job (STR #3460)
- The PPD compiler did not correctly add the manufacturer to the output filename when using the "-m" option (STR #3469)
- The IPP backend did not handle authentication properly for the Get- Printer-Attributes operation (STR 3458)
- Getting SNMP values larger than 127 bytes did not work.
- IPP conformance: Get-Jobs has a default value for requested-attributes (STR #3383)
- cupsPrintFiles() did not report all errors (STR #3449)
- cupsAddDest() could read freed memory (STR #3448)
- The DBUS notifier did not build (STR #3447)
- The scheduler would crash when an active printer was deleted.
- The snmp backend did not work with some printers (STR #3413)
- The web interface did not show the conflicting values when setting options (STR #3440)
- Setting options in the web interface did not always work (STR #3439)
- The scheduler did not use the Get-Job-Attributes policy for a printer (STR #3431)
- The scheduler added two job-name attributes to each job object (STR #3428)
- CSS files would not print (STR #3442)
- The scheduler did not clean out completed jobs when PreserveJobHistory was turned off (STR #3425)
- The web interface did not show completed jobs for a printer (STR #3436)
- Authenticated printing did not always work when printing directly to a remote server (STR #3435)
- The USB backend did not work on Solaris (STR #3423)
- cupstestppd didn't catch problems with JobPatchFile definitions (STR #3421)
