Bug#986532: unblock: ipp-usb/0.9.17-3
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
X-Debbugs-Cc: ipp-usb@packages.debian.org
Please unblock package ipp-usb
[ Reason ]
It adds a NEWS.Debian useful for upgrades' understanding (see #978561)
[ Impact ]
If not unblocked, we expect more support (via bugs) to explain how ipp-usb
and other usb-holding drivers will interact.
[ Other info ]
ipp-usb/0.9.17-3 was uploaded on March 5, in Soft freeze, but was "forgotten",
and/or had running autopkgtests. Anyway, here we are and it should be
unblocked.
Thanks in advance!

+
+ ipp-usb uses the IPP-over-USB protocol to allow the setting up of a
+ driverless print queue for most USB connected modern multi-function
+ and a few modern USB-only devices. The default is to auto-setup the
+ queue with cups-browsed.
+
+ Existing or newly created queues on a USB connection for IPP-over-USB
+ capable devices using vendor drivers will not work while the ipp-usb
+ service is activated and managing the connection. Details are at
