Title:
lp ignores ~/.cups/lpoptions in 17.10
Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in cups source package in Artful:
In Progress
Bug description:
[Impact]
* During some refactoring done to cupsGetNamedDest function used in
many different parts of the code a regression has been introduced
causing the per-user default printer setting (in ~/.cups/lpoptions) to
be ignored.
[Test Case]
1. Make sure at least 2 printers are set up in cups.
2. Set one of them as global default.
3. Create a user default setting (~/.cups/lpoptions) with the other printer
set as default:
Default other_printer
4. Run lpstat -d.
Expected result:
User default printer is displayed.
Actual result:
Global default printer is displayed.
[Regression Potential]
* The regression potential is minial, as this is a very simple bugfix and is
already included in the latest (2.2.5+) releases of cups (including Bionic).
* The only setups affected may be those depending (possibly unintentionally)
on the incorrect behavior. Their users may observe default printer change.
[Other Info]
* Original bug description
LP ignores the settings defined in ~/cups/lpoptions in artful
Steps to reproduce:
1) Define a default print in lpoptions that differs from one in
/etc/cups/printers.conf
2) Execute lpstat -d
3) Above will output default defined in prints.conf instead of
~/cups/lpoptions
