cups-filters 1.22.2 released!



Hi,

I have released cups-filters 1.22.2 now, with the following changes:

	- cups-browsed: Let distribution of jobs sent to queues with
	  "implicitclass" backend (usually clusters) be done by a
	  "job-state" CUPS notification and not by
	  "printer-state-changed" any more. The "job-state"
	  notification already contains the job ID. Before we had to
	  poll the job ID from CUPS via IPP which was sometimes
	  unreliable (Issue #97).
	- imagetopdf, imagetoraster, pdftopdf, libcupsfilters: Added
	  new page scaling options: "fill" scales the input page
	  (typically a photo) so that the output page (typically with
	  different aspect ratio) gets completely filled, aloowing for
	  some content of the input page getting lost. "crop-to-fit"
	  allows for easy printing of documents on slightly different
	  output page sizes (A4 <-> Letter) maintaining the size and
	  centering and cropping into the destination page. Thanks to
	  Dheeraj Yadav (dhirajyadav135 at gmail dot com) for the
	  patch (Pull request #92).
	- cups-browsed: Do not do IPP request for printer-is-shared
          option for remote cups queues with CUPS 2.2.x and newer
          (Pull request #91).
	- cups-browsed: Fix crash bug when reading "Cluster"
	  directive from configuration file (Issue #94).
	- driverless: Updated man page as now also Mopria and
	  Wi-Fi Direct printers are supported. Mentioned also
	  ippusbxd.

Bug fix release, mainly to a crash bug when using the "Cluster" directive in the cups-browsed configuration and to make the printing of jobs in printer clusters more reliable. Also improvements on the image filters and an update of the man page for the "driverless" utility.

Please release this on Debian so that it syncs into Ubuntu.

Thanks in advance.

   Till
