Package: cupsys
Version: 1.1.23-7
Severity: important
Tags: patch
The cost of the first filter of a filter chain is not taken into
account to compute the whole cost of the chain. So if we take the
following mime.convs :
------
image/jpeg application/vnd.cups-postscript 1 imagetops
application/vnd.cups-postscript application/vnd.cups-raster 1
/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstoraster
image/jpeg application/vnd.cups-raster 100 imagetoraster
------
cups will always choose the direct imagetoraster when given a jpeg to
print to a raster printer since 0 (the cost of the path to the printer
after imagetoraster) is less than 1 (the cost of the path to printer
after imagetops).
The obvious patch is, if I have well-understood the source of the
problem:
