+---------------
+
+CHANGES IN CUPS v1.0.5
+
+ - The HP-GL/2 filter did not correctly set the pen color
+ for pens other than #1.
+ - The scheduler would only accept 26 simultaneous jobs
+ under some OS releases (mkstemp() limitation.) It now
+ handles up to 2^32 simultaneous jobs.
+ - The PostScript filter loaded the printer's PPD file
+ twice.
+ - The PAM authentication code now uses pam_strerror() to
+ provide a textual error message in the error_log file.
+ - The scheduler now copies PPD and interface script
+ files instead of moving them; this fixes installations
+ with a separate requests directory.
+ - The PostScript RIP did not generate correct 6-color
+ output.
+ - Several filters were marking PPD options twice when
+ they didn't need to.
+ - The scheduler did not save the printer or class state
+ after an accept-jobs or reject-jobs operation.
+ - The cupsGetDefault() function now ignores the PRINTER
+ environment variable if it is set to "lp".
+ - New ippErrorString() function to get textual error
+ messages.
+ - Better error reporting in the System V commands.
+ - The lpadmin and lpstat commands always tried to
+ connect to the default server.
+ - The text filter didn't load the charset files from the
+ correct location.
+ - Wasn't sending a WWW-Authenticate: field to HTTP
+ clients when authentication was required.
+ - httpSeparate() didn't always set the default port
+ number for known methods.
+ - The HP-GL/2 filter now looks for "PSwidth,length"
+ instead of (the correct) "PSlength,width" as
+ documented by HP. It appears that many major CAD
+ applications are broken and this change allows the
+ auto-rotation to work with them.
+ - The IPP "printer-resolution" option was not being
+ translated.
+ - The charset files did not include the Microsoft
+ "standard" characters from 128 to 159 (unused by the
+ ISO-8859-x charsets)
+ - The scheduler was chunking the Content-Type field from
+ CGI programs; this problem was most noticeable with
+ Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.
+ - By popular demand, the printers, jobs, and classes
+ CGIs no longer force a reload of the page every 10/30
+ seconds.
+ - The scheduler incorrectly required that the IPP client
+ provide a document-format attribute for the
+ validate-job operation.
+ - Clients that sent bad IPP requests without the
+ required attributes-natural-language and
+ attributes-charset attributes would crash the
+ scheduler.
+
+
+CHANGES IN CUPS v1.0.4
+
+ - Documentation updates.
+ - Jobs would get stuck in the queue and wouldn't print
+ until you enabled the queue.
+ - The lp and lpr commands now catch SIGHUP and SIGINTR.
+ - The lp and lpr commands now use sigaction or sigset
+ when available.
+ - CUPS library updates for WIN32/OS-2
+
+
+CHANGES IN CUPS v1.0.3
+
+ - Documentation updates.
+ - The lpq man page was missing.
+ - The configure script was not properly detecting the
+ image libraries.
+ - The top-level makefile was calling "make" instead of
+ "$(MAKE)".
+ - PostScript filter fixes for number-up, OutputOrder,
+ and %Trailer.
+ - The imagetops filter didn't end the base-85 encoding
+ properly if the image data was not a multiple of 4
+ bytes in length.
+ - The imagetoraster filter didn't generate good banded
+ RGB or CMY data (was dividing the line width by 4
+ instead of 3...)
+ - The imagetoraster filter now records the bounding
+ box of the image on the page.
+ - The CUPS image library cache code wasn't working as
+ designed; images larger than the maximum RIP cache
+ would eventually thrash using the same cache tile.
+ - The CUPS image library TIFF loading code didn't
+ handle unknown resolution units properly; the fixed
+ code uses a default resolution of 128 PPI.
+ - cupsGetClasses() and cupsGetPrinters() did not free
+ existing strings if they ran out of memory.
+ - The scheduler logs incorrectly contained 3 digits for
+ the timezone offset instead of 4.
+ - The scheduler now does a lookup for the default user
+ and group ID; the previous hardcoded values caused
+ problems with the LPD backend.
+ - The cancel-job operation now allows any user in the
+ system group to cancel any job.
+ - The cancel-job operation stopped the print queue if
+ the job was being printed.
+ - Now only stop printers if the backend fails. If the
+ filter fails then the failure is noted in the
+ error_log and printing continues with the next file in
+ the queue.
+ - Now log whether a filter fails because of a signal
+ or because it returned a non-zero exit status.
+ - The root user now always passes the system group test.
+ - Printers with an interface script and remote printers
+ and classes didn't have a printer-make-and-model
+ attribute.
+ - Added logging of lost/timed-out remote printers.
+ - The HP-GL/2 filter was scaling the pen width twice.
+ - Updated the HP-GL/2 filter to use a single SP (Set
+ Pen) procedure. This makes the output smaller and is
+ more appropriate since the filter keeps track of the
+ pen states already.
+ - The scheduler didn't handle passwords with spaces.
+ - The IPP backend now does multiple copies and retries
+ if the destination server requires it (e.g. HP
+ JetDirect.)
+ - The disable command didn't implement the "-c" option
+ (cancel all jobs.)
+ - Changed the CMYK generation function for the image file
+ and PostScript RIPs.
+ - The lp command didn't support the "-h" option as
+ documented.
+ - The AppSocket, IPP, and LPD backends now retry on all
+ network errors. This should prevent stopped queues
+ caused by a printer being disconnected from the
+ network or powered off.
+ - The scheduler now restarts a job if the corresponding
+ printer is modified.
+ - The image RIPs now rotate the image if needed to fit
+ on the page.
+
+
+CHANGES IN CUPS v1.0.2
+
+ - The HP-GL/2 filter didn't always scale the output
+ correctly.
+ - The HP-GL/2 filter now supports changing the page size
+ automatically when the "fitplot" option is not used.
+ - The cancel-job operation was expecting a resource name
+ of the form "/job/#" instead of "/jobs/#"; this
+ prevented the cancel and lprm commands from working.
+ - The backends didn't log pages when files were printed
+ using the "-oraw" option.
+ - The authorization code did not work with the Slackware
+ long shadow password package because its crypt() can
+ return NULL.
+ - The chunking code didn't work for reading the response
+ of a POST request.
+ - cupsGetPPD() now does authentication as needed.
+ - The N-up code in the PostScript filter didn't work
+ with some printers (grestoreall would restore the
+ default blank page and device settings).
+ - The N-up code in the PostScript filter didn't scale
+ the pages to fit within the imageable area of the
+ page.
+ - Wasn't doing an fchown() on the request files. This
+ caused problems when the default root account group
+ and CUPS group were not the same.
+
+
+CHANGES IN CUPS v1.0.1
+
+ - Documentation updates.
+ - Fixed a bunch of possible buffer-overflow conditions.
+ - The scheduler now supports authentication using PAM.
+ - Updated the Italian message file.
+ - httpEncode64() didn't add an extra "=" if there was
+ only one byte in the last three-byte group.
+ - Now drop any trailing character set from the locale
+ string (e.g. "en_US.ISO_8859-1" becomes "en_US")
+ - Fixed "timezone" vs "tm_gmtoff" usage for BSD-based
+ operating systems.
+ - Updated IPP security so that "get" operations can be
+ done from any resource name; this allows the CGIs to
+ work with printer authentication enabled so long as
+ authentication isn't turned on for the whole "site".
+ - The IPP code didn't properly handle the "unsupported"
+ group; this caused problems with the HP JetDirect since
+ it doesn't seem to support the "copies" attribute.
+ - The HTTP chunking code was missing a CR LF pair at the
+ end of a 0-length chunk.
+ - The httpSeparate() function didn't handle embedded
+ usernames and passwords in the URI properly.
+ - Doing "lpadmin -p printer -E" didn't restart printing
+ if there were pending jobs.
+ - The cancel-job operation now requires either a
+ requesting-user-name attribute or an authenticated
+ username.
+ - The add-printer code did not report errors if the
+ interface script or PPD file could not be renamed.
+ - Request files are now created without world read
+ permissions.
+ - Added a cupsLastError() function to the CUPS API to
+ retrieve the IPP error code from the last request.
+ - Options are now case-insensitive.
+ - The lpq command now provides 10 characters for the
+ username instead of the original (Berkeley standard)
+ 7.
+ - The cancel command needed a local CUPS server to work
+ (or the appropriate ServerName in cupsd.conf)
+ - The cancel and lprm commands didn't report the IPP
+ error if the job could not be cancelled.
+ - The lp and lpr commands didn't intercept SIGTERM to
+ remove temporary files when printing from stdin.
+ - The lp and lpr commands didn't report the IPP error if
+ the job could not be printed.
