Version: 1.3.8+20120201-0ubuntu3 2012-02-16 17:05:55 UTC

system-config-printer (1.3.8+20120201-0ubuntu3) precise; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/30_cupshelpers-Fix-XML-parsing-crash-on-invalid-UTF-8.patch:
    cupshelpers: Filter encoding problems from XML answers of OpenPrinting's
    web API to prevent crashes of the XML parser. This avoids failure of
    automatic driver download when the manufacturer's license and description
    texts contain wrong characters.
  * debian/patches/23_applet-also-do-not-autostart-on-unity-and-gnome.patch:
    Do not auto-start the applet if the desktop is Unity or GNOME.
  * debian/system-config-printer-gnome.install, debian/control: Revert
    removal of the system-config-printer applet. For non-Uniti/GNOME desktops
    the applet can still be useful.

    the package descriptions.
  * debian/patches/80-add-show-jobs-cmdline-arg.patch: Add "--show-jobs
    " command line option to system-config-printer. This opens
    the job viewer for the specified print queue.
