Description abma 2015-10-21 11:56:02 UTC

is cups deprecated?

didn't find a note about this in changelog, so i assume its a bug?!

also version 2015.8 can't be selected in the bugtracker...

Comment 1 abma 2015-10-21 11:58:37 UTC

oh, found a note in

package/cups/Config.in

"serious security issues, needs upgrading"

Comment 2 Vicente Olivert Riera 2015-10-21 11:58:57 UTC

It was deprecated due to security issues by this commit:

FYI, 2015.08 release added to the version selector - Thanks!

Comment 4 Vicente Olivert Riera 2015-10-21 12:08:49 UTC

This is not a bug, so closing.

Comment 5 Thomas Petazzoni 2015-10-21 12:56:57 UTC

It is worth mentioning that there is a set of patches updating and undeprecating CUPS. See:

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/518817/
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/518818/
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/518820/
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/518821/
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/518822/

Could you test them, and see if they work for you? Thanks!
