cups-filters 1.27.5 released!



Hi,

I have released cups-filters 1.27.5 now, with the following changes:

	- cups-browsed: Do not remove the created local queues on
	  shutdown, to avoid their re-creation on restart, so that
	  desktops get no cluttered with notifications of new queues
	  being created. One can return to the old behavior via
	  "KeepGeneratedQueuesOnShutdown No" in cups-browsed.conf
	  (Ubuntu bug #1869981, #1878241).
	- cups-browsed: Do not accept DNS-SD broadcasts of IPPS type
	  of "remote" CUPS queues of another CUPS instance on the
	  local machine. This way we get a local queue pointing to
	  such a printer only in unencrypted version (IPP). For some
	  reason printing from one CUPS server to another on the same
	  machine works only unencrypted.
	- foomatic-rip: Map two-sided-short-edge to DuplexTumble (Pull
          request #236)
	- Build system: In configure.ac use AS_IF instead of
          AC_CHECK_FILE for font check (Issue #239, Pull request #240)
	- cups-browsed: Cleaned up code for determining to which CUPS
	  server (host/port/domain socket) to connect, so that
	  connection via DomainSocket cups-browsed.conf directive,
	  CUPS_SERVER and IPP_PORT environment variables and all
	  defaults and methods of libcups, including CUPS' client.conf
	  work.
	- gstoraster, rastertopdf: Do not pass NULL to fprintf() (Pull
          request #230).
	- libcupsfilters: Silence compiler warning (Pull request #229).

Several fixes/improvements on cups-browsed, to correctly determine the CUPS server to attach to, to correctly create queues pointing to a second local CUPS instance, and to not remove the locally created queues on shutdown. Also included several bug fixes from contributors

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

Thanks in advance.

   Till
