Hi,
I have released cups-filters 1.11.1 now, with the following changes:
- pdftops: Added support for MuPDF as PDF renderer. MuPDF can
be selected by the "pdftops-renderer=mupdf" option.
- rastertops: Removed unneeded page logging.
- rastertops: Fixed DSC comments, some were only preceded by
a single '%' instead of a double "%%".
- gstoraster, pdftops, foomatic-rip: Use -dNOMEDIAATTRS when
calling Ghostscript. This way Ghostscript does not try to
match media sizes with internal lists.
- Build system: Allow building cups-filters without Poppler
(--disable-poppler in ./configure command line) This skips
the build of pdftoraster, bannertopdf, pdftoijs, and
pdftoopvp and the installation of these filters and their
auxiliary files. With this cups-filters can be easily
installed on mobile/appliance systems with MuPDF as the only
PDF interpreter.
- mupdftoraster: Added filter to support MuPDF as PDF
interpreter. MuPDF is a lightweight PDF interpreter
especially interesting for mobile systems and
appliances. Thanks to Pranjal Bhor for contributing this as
part of his Google Summer of Code project.
- gstoraster: Fix setting of width and height of the page in
pixels when there is no Resolution option in the PPD.
- cups-browsed, implicitclass: Avoid the use of files for the
communication between cups-browsed and the load-balancing
backend implicitclass. Instead of in a file, cups-brwsed
stores the destination server name in an option (which CUPS
saves in printers.conf) which the implicitclass backend
reads via IPP. This not only makes it easier to run
cups-filters in a sandbox, but it is also better in terms of
system security.
- cups-browsed: Allow configuring where the files produced by
cups-browsed will get stored. This makes it easier to run
cups-filters in a sandbox.
- beh: Fixed printing multiple copies with beh (Ubuntu bug
#1605514).
- cups-browsed: Fixed several memory leaks, especially when
using IPP requests and DNS-SD TXT record look-ups. Thanks to
Ivo Straka for finding them with Valgrind and supplying
patches to fix them (Bug #1365, Bug #1368, Ubuntu bug
#1203276).
- libcupsfilters: Added missing "#include <cups/ppd.h>" to
make sure that the package builds on all systems (Bug
#1366).
I have committed this already to the Debian GIT repo, but I have also
released 1.11.1-0ubuntu1 (no changes compared to Debian repo) directly
to Yakkety because of the Ubuntu Feature Freeze today. So you do not
need to hurry this into Debian to meet the Ubuntu Freeze. I can sync the
Debian releases again at any time after the Freeze if they are only bug
fixes.
Till
