     o Expanded printable area at the bottom of the page for the Epson
       Stylus Pro 3800 and 3880.
     o Added IEEE1284 device IDs for many Epson and Canon inkjets
       (LP: #1248303), monochrome laser printers of all manufacturers, and dye
       sublimation printers of all manufacturers.
     o Added Catalan, Turkish, and Vietnamese translations.

    that "make install" finds it.

  * Merge from Debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
    - debian/printer-driver-gutenprint.ppd-updater,
      debian/foomatic-db-gutenprint.ppd-updater,
      debian/printer-driver-gutenprint.postinst,
      debian/printer-driver-gutenprint.install.in,
      debian/foomatic-db-gutenprint.install.in,
      debian/rules:
      Use the PPD updater script of the cups package to update the PPD files
      (in /etc/cups/ppd/) of all already existing print queues using this
      driver when updating this package. In contrary to Gutenprint's own
      cups-genppdupdate the script of the cups package can also migrate PPD
      files. In our case we migrate Foomatic/IJS PPD files to the equivalent
      PPDs using the CUPS Raster driver of Gutenprint and we replace simplified
      PPD files by the corresponding standard PPDs, as we discontinue the
      simplified PPDs in Ubuntu to reduce the delta to Debian and to make
      printer model/driver listings in printer setup tools less cluttered.
      printer-driver-gutenprint.postinst is not needed any more and therefore
      removed.
    - debian/control: Removed dependency on perl, all what is needed from Perl
      is in perl-base.
    - debian/ubuntu/apport-hook.py, debian/rules: Install Apport hook if the
      package is built under Ubuntu (decides via "dpkg-vendor").
    - debian/control: Added transitional package ijsgutenprint-ppds. The
      Ubuntu-only package with this name got dropped in favor of migrating
      users of the IJS flavor of Gutenprint to the CUPS Raster flavor.

       EPSON Stylus NX420, SX420, TX420
     - CD printing on many Canon printers.
     - Non-working Canon's removed.
     - More Japanese models supported.
     - Printer modes for most printer models are now determined by the
       media, based on information from the corresponding Windows
       driver. If an incompatible mode is selected by the user, a
       suitable mode is substituted, based on the other active
       parameters and quality setting. Modes are also substituted
       based on cartridge selection and duplex selection. Inktype is
       then automatically adjusted.
     - Added support for 8-bit inks to Canon backend, and modes using
       them.
     - Adjusted margins and page sizes of Canon printers.
     - Added borderless functionality to most Canon printers.
     - A problem whereby printing did not work at all on some Linux
       distributions has been fixed.
     - Printing on the Epson Stylus NX200, SX200, and SX205 is believed
       to be corrected.

gutenprint (5.2.7-5ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low

  * Merge from debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
    - debian/printer-driver-gutenprint.ppd-updater,
      debian/foomatic-db-gutenprint.ppd-updater,
      debian/printer-driver-gutenprint.postinst,
      debian/printer-driver-gutenprint.install.in,
      debian/foomatic-db-gutenprint.install.in:
      Use the PPD updater script of the cups package to update the PPD files
      (in /etc/cups/ppd/) of all already existing print queues using this
      driver when updating this package. In contray to Gutenprint's own
      cups-genppdupdate the script of the cups package can also migrate PPD
      files. In our case we migrate Foomatic/IJS PPD files to the equivalent
      PPDs using the CUPS Raster driver of Gutenprint and we replace simplified
      PPD files by the corresponding standard PPDs, as we discontinue the
      simplified PPDs in Ubuntu to reduce the delta to Debian and to make
      printer model/driver listings in printer setup tools less cluttered.
      printer-driver-gutenprint.postinst is not needed any more and therefore
      removed.
    - debian/printer-driver-gutenprint.install.in: Do not install profile.jpg.
      The file is not installed by upstream ("make install") and only wastes
      space.
    - debian/control, debian/patches/0003-upgrade-getopt.patch,
      debian/patches/0004-no-data-dumper-needed.patch: Eliminate the unnecessary
      Perl module dependencies to reduce the package's dependency on Perl to
      perl-base instead of perl. This saves a lot of space on the Live CDs of
      Ubuntu. This is done by once not importing Data::Dumper without using it
      and second, by replacing Getopt::Std with Getopt::Long. Removed the
      dependency on perl from debian/control.
    - debian/rules: Build with "--enable-nls" in the "./configure"
      command line. This is actually needed and got accidentally dropped in
      Debian, assuming that dh_auto_configure sets it.
    - debian/ubuntu/apport-hook.py, debian/rules: Install Apport hook if the
      package is built under Ubuntu (decides via "dpkg-vendor").
    - 0005-use-dnointerpolate-in-ghostscript-command-lines.patch: Running
      Ghostscript without interpolation makes Ghostscript significantly faster
      especially on files which contain bitmaps. The effect of interpolation on
      the high resolutions usually used for printing is practically invisible
      and therefore the interpolation is of no benefit here.
    - debian/control: Added transitional package ijsgutenprint-ppds. The
      Ubuntu-only package with this name got dropped in favor of migrating
      users of the IJS flavor of Gutenprint to the CUPS Raster flavor.

  * Merge from debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
    - debian/rules: Include the simplified CUPS Raster PPDs of Gutenprint by
      an explicit "./configure" option.
    - debian/control, debian/rules, debian/ijsgutenprint-ppds.install,
      debian/cups-driver-gutenprint.install, debian/ijsgutenprint-ppds.postinst:
      Added the binary package ijsgutenprint-ppds: This package contains all
      PPDs which can be generated from the Foomatic XML database for
      ijsgutenprint in one compressed pyppd archive. This takes much less disk
      space than the XML database (1.1 MB vs. 102 MB) and makes access (listing
      all PPDs, extracting the needed PPD) also significantly faster.
    - debian/patches/generic-large-format-printers.patch:  Use "Large Format"
      instead of "LF" in the names of the Generic PCL printers, this way users
      understand better what the difference between the entries is.
    - debian/patches/no-data-dumper-needed.patch: Data::Dumper is imported,
      but never actually used, so drop that.
    - debian/patches/upgrade-getopt.patch: Replace Getopt::Std by
      configuring Getopt::Long to run in a mode compatible with Getopt::Std
    - debian/control: Dependency on perl is no longer necessary - Data::Dumper
      and Getopt::Std were the last modules being used that aren't in perl-base.

    - debian/control: Added transitional cupsys-driver-gutenprint package,
      easing the transition from hardy. Versioned Conflicts/Replaces.
    - debian/foomatic-db-gutenprint.postinst: automatically update the PPD
      files of existing CUPS queues which use the IJS driver.
    - debian/control: Added dependency on cups and cups-client to
      foomatic-db-gutenprint to assure that automatic PPD updates take
      place.
    - debian/cups-driver-gutenprint.postinst,
      debian/foomatic-db-gutenprint.postinst: Call CUPS command line
      clients (lpstat, lpadmin, ...) with "-h ..." option to assure local
      connections to be done even if a client.conf file points to a
      remote CUPS server, as this driver package only serves for the
      local CUPS and if the local machine tries to do changes on a
      remote server, the CUPS clients ask for the remote server's password
      interactively.

    and renamed them appropriately to *.patch instead of *.dpatch.
  * debian/patches/use-dnointerpolate-in-ghostscript-command-lines.patch:
    Added "-dNOINTERPOLATE" to the Ghostscript command lines in the Foomatic/IJS
    PPD files to make the page rendering by Ghostscript significantly faster.
  * debian/rules: Fixed a bug in saving and restoring the scripts/config.guess
    and scripts/config.sub files. These always produced a delta in the upstream
    source code and so an unneeded debian/patches/debian-changes-* file.
  * debian/rules: Created /usr/share/doc/cups-driver-gutenprint/ directory
    for the README file of the CUPS driver (the normal build process creates
    this directory only later).
  * debian/rules: Run foomatic-compiledb with "-j 4" (4 parallel jobs) if
    automatic determination of the job number fails. This is a good value
    for modern desktop systems (on which one tests the build before uploading),
    taking into account that one task does not load a full CPU.
