[Test Case] $ export CUPS_SERVER="blah" $ lp -h {valid printserver} -d {printqueue} /etc/hosts Without the fix : lp: No such file or directory With the fix : request id is {printqueue}-37 (1 file(s)) [Regression] None expected. New code path (from upstream patch) is only triggered if -h option is used. [Original description of the problem] 1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Release: 14.04 Codename: trusty 2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center cups-client: Installed: 1.7.2-0ubuntu1.1 3) What you expected to happen When using lp -h to send a print job to a printer, I expected to the job to be sent to the printer and to override any env variables set or conf file setting 4) What happened instead To summarise the behaviour I'm seeing 1) with CUPS_SERVER env variable unset and no ServerName set in /etc/cups/client.conf, we see that using lp -h with hostnames gives us error "lp: Error - add '/version=1.1' to server name." Using IPs sends the job to the printer as expected. 2) with CUPS_SERVER env variable set using hostname with/without port and no ServerName set in /etc/cups/client.conf, we see that the only time it sends a job is when an IP and port are used. Otherwise it seems to error. I believe it's using the env variable, even though -h is being used. 3) with CUPS_SERVER env variable set using IP address with/without port and no ServerName set in /etc/cups/client.conf we see that the job is always sent using lp -h but it is always sent to the value in env variable, thus ignoring the command line. === with CUPS_SERVER env variable unset and no ServerName option set in /etc/cups/client.conf $ lp test2.txt lp: Error - scheduler not responding. (expected as no server is set or specified) Using hostname $ lp -h server1:631 test2.txt lp: Error - add '/version=1.1' to server name. $ lp -h server1 test2.txt lp: Error - add '/version=1.1' to server name.
