Package: cups-server-common
Version: 1.6.2-8
Severity: normal


In /usr/share/cups/mime/mime.convs there is

   application/postscript          application/vnd.cups-postscript 66      pstops

In cups 1.5.x we have

   application/postscript          application/vnd.cups-postscript 65      pstops

Unless it is intended to alter the work flow for all PostScript documents
I'd consider this is a bug. There is nothing obvious in the changelog
to account for the change. (But it not unknown for the significance of
something to pass me by :) ).

Regards,

Brian.

I think this issue was solved through the inclusion of a patched  
cups/cupsfilters.convs from cups-filters 1.0.38 in the tests-use-
cupsfilters.patch. This was already done in 1.6.4-1.
