system-config-printer (1.3.8+20120201-0ubuntu8.1) precise-proposed; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/83_improved-sorting-of-device-lists.patch: Improved sort
    order of device entries, so that in the "Connections" list of a detected
    network printer "AppSocket/JetDirect" always has highest priority and
    "IPP" has lowest. This way we avoid that network printers get set up
    with IPP connection, as many printers do not conform to the IPP
    standards. "AppSocket/JetDirect" is a very simple protocol which usually
    works (Works around LP: #945028, LP: #973270, LP: #990734, LP: #992468,
    LP: #992982).
