cups-filters 1.17.7 released!

[Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmail.com>]

Hi,

NOTE: Please wait with uploading to unstable until QPDF 7.0~b1 is 
readily available there!

I have released cups-filters 1.17.7 now, with the following changes:

	- braille: Add a mirror option for graphical output. Thanks to
          Samuel Thibault for this patch.
	- braille: Rename the internal cups name of the Resize option
	  to the standard well-known and well-documented fitplot
	  option. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
	- braille: Add support for margins in graphical mode,
	  defaulting them to 15 points (a bit more than 5mm). Thanks
	  to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
	- braille: Updated French translation. Thanks to Samuel
	  Thibault for this patch.
	- braille: Add a PPD which generates UBRL output, i.e. Braille
	  expressed in Unicode. This is not useful for actual
	  embossers, but very convenient to check output to be
	  embossed without wasting paper. Thanks to Samuel Thibault
	  for this patch.
	- braille: Add virtual BRF backend for generating
	  ready-to-emboss BRF files with CUPS, similarly to the
	  cups-pdf backend. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
	- braille: Some tools seem to emit true/false instead of
	  True/False, so let us cope with it. Thanks to Samuel
	  Thibault for this patch.
	- braille: "make uninstall" did not remove all the
	  links. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
	- braille: Add support for embossing MusicXML files, through
	  the FreeDots transcriptor. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for
	  this patch.
	- braille: Add proper support for hardware margins on braille
	  embossers. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
	- braille: Fix the disabling of the text margins in Index
	  graphics mode. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for this patch.
	- braille: Support for direct, structured embossing of XML and
	  XML-based file formats (like odt, docx, ...). Thanks to
	  Samuel Thibault for this patch.

This release contains tons of fixes for Braille embossers.

Please release this on Debian so that I can sync it to Ubuntu.

Note that there are several new symlinks to be installed. Please apply 
attached patch (which Samual supplied to me) to the Debian/Ubuntu packaging.

Thanks in advance.
