cups-filters (1.11.3-0ubuntu1) yakkety; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release
    - cups-browsed: For remote CUPS queues always download the
      PPD from the server and assign it to the queue to make sure
      options show in print dialogs and get saved for the next
      cups-browsed session. Also make sure PPD options of IPP network
      printers get correctly saved.
    - cups-browsed: make load-balanced queue clusters also work when
      the printers are discovered by legacy CUPS browsing.
    - cups-browsed: Shorten timeouts for HTTP/IPP access to avoid
      hang on shutdown.
    - cups-browsed: Cleaned up HTTP access to local and remote
      CUPS servers and IPP printers, to assure that the local CUPS
      daemon is always accessed the same (user-defined) way
      (domain socket/localhost:port). This especially prevents
      cups-browwsed hanging on shutdown (Closes: #832637).
    - Fixes to make the printing stack work in a sandbox (like
      a snap for example): Do not use build-time hardcoded paths
      in the filters and in cups-browsed, read the PPD files always
      through CUPS' library functions, make paths and file locations
      configurable in cups-browsed.conf. Allow for alternative
      foomatic-rip config file in CUPS_SERVERROOT
      (/etc/cups/foomatic-rip.conf).
  * Added rules to AppArmor profile to allow cups-browsed to do its
    debug log and to access PPDs for saving options.
  * Update debian/copyright and added the new upstream files to the
    appropriate binary packages.
