* New 1.7.0 upstream release

[ Till Kamppeter ]
* Refresh most patches with quilt
* Removed usb-backend-do-not-crash-if-usb-disabled-in-bios and
  cupsd-no-crash-on-avahi-threaded-poll-shutdown patches as they got
  applied upstream
* Removed drop-arch-specifics-from-doc patch as it is not needed
  anymore
* Updated drop_unnecessary_dependencies, manpage-hyphen-minus,
  manpage-translations and ppd-poll-with-client-conf patches manually
  to apply to the new CUPS version
* Added error counting exception from
  usb-backend-do-not-crash-if-usb-disabled-in-bios to
  tests-ignore-warnings
* Install the newly added ippfind utility and its manpage in
  cups-client
* Added pwg.h to libcups2-dev package
* Call dh_auto_clean only if the file Makedefs is present, to avoid a
  FTBFS
* Added color management extensions from Joe Simon's GSoC 2013
  project.
* Patch cups-files.conf to activate CUPS daemon syncing of files when
  closing, so that config files (like printers.conf) do not
  mysteriously disappear (LP: #1157972)
* In the AppArmor profile, allow execution of programs in
  /etc/cups/interfaces/, needed to make CUPS working with queues based
  on System V interface scripts, especially PPD-less queues
  auto-generated by cups-browsed from cups-filters 1.0.41 on.
* Silenced AppArmor noise from udev.conf in syslog (LP: #1229766)

[ Steve Langasek ]
* Add cups-filters (>= 1.0.42) as alternative to foomatic-filters
  (which is deprecated) in package relationships

[ Didier Raboud ]
* Remove Roger Leigh from uploaders on his request with thanks for his
  past work!
* Switch avahi LSB Should-Start dependency to be avahi-daemon; also
  bump package relationship to >= 0.6.31-3~ (Closes: #731608)
* Refresh the manpage translation files
* Move the USB backend quirk rules file to cups-server-common
* Add 38 new 1.7.0 libcups2 symbols
* Mark one C++ libcupsppdc1 symbol as optional as it isn't exported in
  1.7.0 anymore
* Import Fedora patches:
  - to avoid sign-extending CRCs in gz decompression
  - to build with full read-only relocations
  - to fix job history logging (upstream patch)
  - to set the internal default for SyncOnClose to Yes, instead of
    only configuring it to Yes
  - to fix a stringpool corruption issue
  - to prevent USB timeouts causing incorrect print output
* Import Fedora patch updates:
  - to dont-use-dbus-from-two-threads patch so it removes a call to
    avahi_threaded_poll_stop()
  - to avoid_stale_lockfile_in_dbus_notifier patch to call _exit when
    handling SIGTERM
* Move manpage-translations patch at the very end of the patch series
  to have it include all our patches

Drop Recommends: on foomatic-filters, which is now obsoleted by
cups-filters.

140. By Till Kamppeter on 2013-10-31

debian/rules: Call dh_auto_clean only if the file Makedefs is present, to
avoid a FTBFS.

139. By Till Kamppeter on 2013-09-27

debian/local/cupsd-sync-files-on-close.patch: Corrected patch, the new
SyncOnClose directive needs to be in cups-files.conf (LP: #1157972,
Red Hat bug #984883).

138. By Till Kamppeter on 2013-09-24

* debian/patches/cups-1.6.4-changes.patch: Merged latest fixes from upstream,
  taken from CUPS 1.6.4, as there is no public repository of CUPS any more
  and due to Apple policies the next 1.7.x release, 1.7.0 final, happens
  only with the next release of Mac OS X. Fixes:
   - Removed some duplicate page size definitions for some ISO sizes that were
     causing problems
   - The IPP backend did not add the "last-document" attribute
   - Added a SyncOnClose directive to cups-files.conf to force cupsd to
     call fsync before closing any configuration/state files it writes
     (LP: #1157972, Red Hat bug #984883).
   - Added USB quirk rule for Lexmark E238
   - Closed server connections were still not always detected
   - The libusb-based USB backend now loads its list of quirks from files
     in /usr/share/cups/usb instead of using a hardcoded table, this
     makes spotting and fixing USB problems much easier.
   - The scheduler did not properly register ICC color profiles with
     colord
* debian/patches/usb-backend-more-quirk-rules.patch,
  debian/patches/handle-server-terminating-connection.patch,
  debian/patches/colord-add-profile-fix.patch: Removed, included upstream.

  debian/patches/show-compile-command-lines.patch,

  (LP: #1229766).
* debian/local/cupsd-sync-files-on-close.patch: Activate CUPS daemon
  syncing files when closing, so that config files (like printers.conf)

  USB backend quirk rules file.

137. By Till Kamppeter on 2013-09-18

* debian/local/cups-daemon.cups.upstart: Increased timeout for waiting for
  the CUPS daemon to get ready before automatically configuring printers
  from 3 sec to 30 sec, on slower systems CUPS often needs more than 3
  seconds and so the automatic printer configuration does not get done
  (LP: #933308).
* debian/cups.dirs: Create empty /etc/cups/interfaces directory
  (LP: #499585).

136. By Till Kamppeter on 2013-09-05

* New 1.6.3 upstream release:
  - The lp, lpq, lpr, and lpstat now display an error message advising the
    use of the /version=1.1 ServerName option (<rdar://problem/14290628>)

    client.conf (<rdar://problem/14216262>)
  - httpStatus(HTTP_ERROR) did not return a useful error message

    disabled in the BIOS (LP: #1108719).
