* SECURITY UPDATE: privilege escalation using the hplip alert-mailing
  functionality.
  - debian/patches/91_SECURITY_CVE-2008-2940.dpatch: fix handle_event()
    in hpssd.py to validate device-uri parameter and disable
    handle_setalerts(). This fix alters hplip behaviour by preventing
    users from setting alerts and by moving alert configuration to a
    root-controlled /etc/hp/alerts.conf file.
  - CVE-2008-2940
* SECURITY UPDATE: denial of service in hpssd message parser.
  - debian/patches/92_SECURITY_CVE-2008-2941.dpatch: fix handle_event()
    in hpssd.py to correctly validate parameters.
  - CVE-2008-2941

  CVE-2007-5208

debian/55-hpmud.rules: Changed UDEV rules to set owner "lp",
group "scanner", and permissions 0660 for the /dev/... files, so
that non-privileged users (not in "lp" group, but in "scanner"
group) can also access the HP printers. Simply using 0666
permissions is a security problem (LP: #147369).

debian/rules, debian/55-hpmud.rules:
Updated UDEV rules for HPLIP to the ones of HPLIP 2.7.9. The current
rules do not work any more (LP: #147369)

debian/control, debian/hplip.install, debian/hplip-gui.install,
debian/rules:
Moved menu entries for the GUI utilities into the new hplip-gui package.
This package requires python-qt3 and so the menu entries can never appear
if python-qt3 is not installed. Let the main package (hplip) recommend
hplip-gui instead of python-qt3 now. Fixes: LP: #67892, LP: #86893,
LP: #134480, LP: #137168
