* debian/local/pyppd/, debian/rules, /debian/control: Removed local copy
  of pyppd and build-depend on the new pyppd package.

* debian/rules: Corrected linker command lines to avoid FTBFS.

debian/local/pyppd/pyppd/: Updated to pyppd 0.4.9, to suppress runtime
error tracebacks by putting a "try: ... except ...: pass" construct around
the main function call. This avoids SIGPIPE crashes when the execution of
the self-extracting compressed PPD file archives gets stopped by the
calling process (LP: #618017).

debian/control: Added dependencies for PPD compression.

32. By Till Kamppeter on 2010-08-11

* debian/local/pyppd/, debian/rules: Compressed all the physical PPD files
  into an archive file reducing the disk space occupation by a factor of 10,
  freeing several megabytes on the Ubuntu Desktop CDs (or on any live CD
  based on Debian or a derivative distribution). The archive is
  self-extracting and located in /usr/lib/cups/driver/, so that CUPS
  automatically extracts the PPD files. Thank you very much to Vitor
  Baptista who developed this great PPD compressor in the Google Summer of
  Code 2010.
* debian/splix.postinst: Updated auto updater for the PPDs of the already
  existing print queues to work with the new PPD archive.

   o New printers supported: Samsung SCX-4100, SCX-4300, ML-2015, ML-2240,
     ML-3051, ML-3051ND, CLP-610ND, SF-565P, Xerox Phaser 3124 (Fixed

  included upstream now.
* debian/README.Debian: Removed phrase telling that Debian and Ubuntu do
  not contain CUPS DDK. CUPS DDK is included in CUPS since 1.4.x.

debian/local/ppd/samsung/clp610nd.ppd,
debian/local/ppd/samsung/clp610ndfr.ppd,
debian/local/ppd/samsung/clp610ndpt.ppd, debian/rules: Added PPDs for
the Samsung CLP-610ND (LP: #505423, LP: #510832).

27. By Till Kamppeter on 2009-09-18

debian/splix.postinst: Fixed "lpstat -r" check for the
auto update of PPDs of existing queues. "lpstat -r" exits always with
status 0, we must check the actual output. Call lpstat, lpadmin, and
cupsctl with "-h /var/run/cups/cups.sock" to avoid querying remote
servers set up in /etc/cups/client.conf, and asking for passwords.
Thanks to Martin-Éric Racine for tracking this down and the solution!
See Debian bug #543468. Use signal names instead of numbers for trap.
Quiesces a lintian bashism warning.
