* Maintenance release to the 2.5.0 branch for Ubuntu Lucid and Maverick.
  Backports many maintainer script features to foolproof the installation
  and removal processes, per feedback from Martin Pitt and Till Kamppeter.
* Hand-picked fixes from 2.5.1-5 and 2.5.1-7 packaging:
  + Modified the force-reload loop in [postinst|prerm|postrm] to end with ||:
    rather than with ||true for consistency with other maintainer commands.
  + Added a wait loop in [postinst|prerm|postrm] to ensure that CUPS reloaded.
  + Added 'cupsenable' and 'cupsaccept' steps in [postinst] to ensure that
    the PDF queue is up and running before we can manipulate it. (LP: #805947)
  + Added 'cupsdisable' and 'cupsreject' steps in [prerm|postrm] to match.
* Hand-picked fixes from 2.5.1-3 packaging:
  + Remove the superfluous -E option to the queue creation loop in [postinst].
    This was unnecessary to access localhost plus it sometimes makes automated
    installs fail. (Closes: #614713,#539156).
  + Implemented a CUPS queue purging loop in [postrm] to remove all traces of
    CUPS-PDF in the CUPS configuration after a package purge. (LP: #573667)
  + Enforced -h localhost usage in [prerm] for [postinst/postrm] consistency.
  + Bumped Standards-Version to 3.9.2 (no change required).
* Reverted LFS support from 2.5.0-17 in [debian/rules] since it never made it
  to any stable distro. It remains in the 2.5.1 branch for those who need it.

Pushing 2.5.0-17squeeze1 as an SRU into Maverick-proposed (LP: #573667, #805947).

15. By Martin-Éric Racine on 2010-06-18

Revert permission fix from 2.5.0-15. Let CUPS handle this by itself.

14. By Martin-Éric Racine on 2010-05-27

* Changed ownership of /var/spool/cups-pdf/ANONYMOUS from nobody:nogroup
  to root:lpadmin (Closes: #582441).
* Fix the permissions of /usr/lib/cups/backend to 0700 (LP: #580837).
  FIXME: this directory's permissions really should be fixed by CUPS.

* Removed all obsolete build-dependency and dependency versioning.
  + We don't depend upon specific CDBS features, plus we barely quote
    debhelper >= 5 to quiet the incitation to upgrade debian/compat.
  + Debian Lenny implemented migration from CUPSYS to CUPS namespace
    and Ubuntu implemented it in Intrepid too, so we basically have
    an artificial versioning as a result of the namespace change.

12. By Martin-Éric Racine on 2009-11-15

* Added cruft removal to postinst script.

* Bumped Standards-Version to 3.8.3 (no change required).

* The "Houston, we have a piuparts problem" release:
  + Reinsterted missing Depends on ghostscript.
