Title:
  lp ignores ~/.cups/lpoptions in 17.10

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in cups source package in Artful:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * During some refactoring done to cupsGetNamedDest function used in
  many different parts of the code a regression has been introduced
  causing the per-user default printer setting (in ~/.cups/lpoptions) to
  be ignored.

  This bug has been introduced in Artful due to the refactoring. Earlier
  releases are fine, similarly this bug is fixed upstream for Bionic.

  [Test Case]

   1. Make sure at least 2 printers are set up in cups.
   2. Set one of them as global default.
   3. Create a user default setting (~/.cups/lpoptions) with the other printer 
set as default:
  Default other_printer
   4. Run lpstat -d.

  Expected result:
  User default printer is displayed.

  Actual result:
  Global default printer is displayed.

  [Regression Potential]

   * The regression potential is minial, as this is a very simple bugfix and is 
already included in the latest (2.2.5+) releases of cups (including Bionic).
   * The only setups affected may be those depending (possibly unintentionally) 
on the incorrect behavior. Their users may observe default printer change.

  [Other Info]

   * Original bug description

  LP ignores the settings defined in ~/cups/lpoptions in artful

  Steps to reproduce:

  1) Define a default print in lpoptions that differs from one in 
/etc/cups/printers.conf
  2) Execute lpstat -d
  3) Above will output default defined in prints.conf instead of 
~/cups/lpoptions
