CUPS 1.5.1 (Pulled)

Created at 10:43 Feb 03, 2012 by mike, last modified at 07:33 Feb 05, 2012

Note, this release has been pulled since the tarball was actually for CUPS 1.6 (currently in development). An new tarball for CUPS 1.5.2 will be released later today with the correct content.

CUPS 1.5.1 is now available for download from:

• The ipptool program now provides additional diagnostics for badly- formatted responses (STR #3857)
