cups-filters 1.13.0 released!



Hi,

I have released cups-filters 1.13.0 now, with the following changes:

	- cups-browsed: Use the httpGetAddr() only with CUPS 2.0.x or
	  newer, as older CUPS versions do not provide it (Bug #1381).
	- cups-browsed: Minor corrections in the handling of the data
	  records of the discovered printers.
	- rastertopdf, urftopdf: As with libcupsimage from CUPS 2.2.2
	  on rastertopdf also understands Apple Raster and much better
	  than urftopdf does, use rastertopdf for Apple Raster
	  (image/urf) input files then. Also allow for manually
	  choosing by the ./configure command line.
	- driverless: Added a CUPS backend mode to the driverless
	  utility. Running as a CUPS backend in discovery mode it
	  lists the IPP URIs of the suitable printers in printer setup
	  tools and in "lpinfo -v", as conneting via IPP is required
	  for driverless printing.

Contains some extra stuff for driverless printing, especially the "driverless" utility makes it possible to set up driverless printers with the CUPS web interface.

Make sure that the "driverless" utility or symlinks to it get installed as

/usr/bin/driverless
/usr/lib/cups/driver/driverless
/usr/lib/cups/backend/driverless

This should be in the cups-filters-core-drivers binary package.

Let this build-depend on your cups_2.2.1-41-g49c592936-1 version, as otherwise cups-filters builds without Apple Raster support.

   Till
