 .
   * Merge recent Debian changes to get some bug fixes and new upstream version
     1.2.4 (UVF exception approved by Matt Zimmerman):
     - The --with-printcap configure option did not work (STR #1984)
     - The character set reported by cupsLangGet() did not always reflect the
       default character set of a given locale (STR #1983)
     - Older Lexmark and Tektronix printers did not work with IPP (STR #1980)
     - Failsafe printing did not work (PR #6328)
     - Some web interface redirects did not work (STR #1978)
     - The web interface change settings button could introduce a "Port 0" line
       in cupsd.conf if there was no loopback connection available (STR #1979)
     - The web interface change settings and edit configuration file buttons
       would truncate the cupsd.conf file (STR #1976)
     - The German web interface used the wrong printer icon images (STR #1973)
     - (The other changes of 1.2.4 were already present as patch in the
       previous version.)
     - Remove transitional PPD symlink which is not necessary any more and just
       causes loops. Closes: LP#62198
     - Fix CPU hogging of gnome-cups-manager. Closes: LP#44196
   * Add debian/patches/ubuntu-default-error-policy-retry-job.dpatch:
     - Do not stop the printer if a job failed, just reattempt it. The default
       policy might be suitable for large offices with an admin, but it
       puts home users at loss. Thanks to Till Kamppeter for the patch!
       Closes: LP#41313
