  CVE-2007-5208

27. By Till Kamppeter on 2007-04-03

* New upstream release (closes: LP#82546, LP#83936, LP#85805, LP#87695,
  LP#92237, LP#94013, LP#94015, LP#94823, LP#95489)
  * HPLIP 1.7.3
    + Added the <nopjl /> tag to hpijs-generator.in. This will remove
      the extra foomatic PJL options from most HP LaserJet PPD
      files. The extra foomatic PJL options caused some HPIJS PCL data
      issues. This fixes a "PCL XL error" on LJ1010/1012 that can
      occur on different PCs (closes: LP#92237).
    + Fixed defect (An error occurs when send a fax coverpage with "&"
      or "<" character in Regarding or Optional Message field.)
    + Removed banner pages from fax print settings
    + Altered hpfax: device discovery output to match hp: scheme (CUPS
      1.2 only)
    + Removed the wait cursor during the password entry screen
      [reported by Johannes]
    + Added error messages and suppressed content in toolbox when
      device is not found or unsupported
    + A new configure option was added --enable-cups11-build, this
      option controls the hp/hpfax device discovery message when no
      devices are found. If needed, this option provides backward
      compatibility with CUPS 1.1.x applications.
      With --enable-cups11-build set the "no_device_found" message is
      displayed during device discovery by the "hp" backend.
      With --disable-cups11-build (default) set the backend prints a
      scheme based on the following conditions.
          Condition 1 - no daemons
            output nothing stdout return exit 1
          Condition 2 - daemons running, no HP devices, output scheme
            direct hp "Unknown" "HP Printer (HPLIP)" return exit 0
          Condition 3 - daemons running, HP printer found, output URI
            direct hp:/... "hp model" "HP model HPLIP" "deviceid"
          return exit 0
      (closes: LP#87695)
    + Changed the way that hp-setup was being launched from the
      toolbox, it was hanging on Edgy
    + Added Tools > Printer Information
    + Added a check for 'lpr' for Debian installation (to force
      install of cupsys-bsd)
    + Moved the password prompt in the text/CLI installer past the
      distro confirm/select prompts to handle a problem with Mepis
    + Made a change to determine if networking is working during
      installation.
    + Added a private copy of sanei_init_debug to libsane-hpaio. This
      will remove the libsane.so dependency which was a problem for
      WINE.
    + Fixed defect (PPD file "foomatic:HP-PSC_2400-hpijs.ppd" can not
      be found when set up PSC 2400 in interactive mode, closes
      LP#95489)
    + Fixed a page update defect in the toolbox (when switching
      devices, update page correctly)
    + Re-wrote hpaioAdvanceDocument function in libsane-hpaio. This
      change only effects SCL scanners with an ADF (ie: inkjet
      all-in-ones). This fixes a double-feed ADF issue which occurred
      when scanning a single page.
    + Fixed defect (An unexpected error occurs when perform color
      calibration job in GUI mode on photosmart c7180.)

24. By Anthony Mercatante on 2007-01-20

Fixed hplip.desktop and added hplip-kubuntu.desktop.
Kubuntu doesn't have any application categorised in "Settings"
so that results a crappy Kmenu. The hplip.desktop file will not
show in KDE, and the kubuntu one, only shows in KDE, in
"System" section.

23. By Matthias Klose on 2007-01-12

21. By Till Kamppeter on 2006-12-11
