Bug description:
I needed to print few tickets for travel. But as they did not appeared
on my printer I took a look at http://localhost:631/ and discovered
this:
"The PPD version (5.2.7) is not compatible with Gutenprint
5.2.8-pre1."
Had to print to PDF and do printing from MS Windows laptop...
[Impact] Printers used with Gutenprint do not work for all users who
update from an older Ubuntu version to Precise.
[Test Case] To reproduce: Upgrade from Gutenprint 5.2.7 to
5.2.8~pre1-0ubuntu2 does not update the PPD files of existing queues.
To test, create a Gutenprint-based print queue on a system with 5.2.7
then run
grep -i gutenprint /etc/cups/ppd/*.ppd
and see that the PPD files are of Gutenprint version 5.2.7. Update to
5.2.8~pre1-0ubuntu2 and run
grep -i gutenprint /etc/cups/ppd/*.ppd
The PPDs are still not upgraded. Update from 5.2.7 or
5.2.8~pre1-0ubuntu2 to 5.2.8~pre1-0ubuntu2.1 and your PPD files get
updated to 5.2.8pre1.
[Regression Potential] Only change is the timestamp of one file. So
regressions should not be possible.
