Bug#460094: [Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#460094: cupsys: No option to change default error policy [patch]
Hi Matthew, Matthew King [2008-01-10 14:31 +]: Launchpad bug #LP41313 includes a patch to change the hard-coded default error policy from 'stop-printer' to 'retry-job' but Till Kamppeter, the author of the patch, says: A better solution would be adding a directive DefaultErrorPolicy to cupsd.conf, so distros can set this to Retry job in their desktop versions and Stop printer in their enterprise server versions. The included patch does this, keeping the behaviour the same (ie. the default in cupsd.conf and the default default if this is not set is still 'stop-printer'). Thank you! This should also be sent to upstream for inspection and adoption. I would copy send this to Launchpad too, but it seems I have as much of a phobia against web forums as Launchpad does against email. You can send LP bugs with email [1], but don't bother here. Debian's and Ubuntu's cupsys packages are developed in a shared repository, so we'll fix it in both places.

This should also be sent to upstream for inspection and adoption. It's probably better if you do that than I. I had a hunt around the cups website but couldn't find an address to which to send patches etc. [1] https://help.launchpad.net/BugTrackerEmailInterface I didn't know that. And to think I went to all the trouble a while ago of creating an LP account. The mail format does appear to be frustratingly different from Debian's.
