foomatic-db-engine (4.0.6-0ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low
* New upstream release
- Rearranged gcc command line so that linking works with gcc 4.5.x
(LP: #687973).
- Allow generating a printer XML files also from more than one PPD file
for the same printer with only one call of the foomatic-ppd-to-xml
script.
- When generating XML files, use exactly the same style as the
OpenPrinting web server uses on daily synchronization. This avoids
automatic BZR commits without real changes.
- Personal comments and optional suppression of automatic driver
assignments when generating printer XML files from PPDs with
foomatic-ppd-to-xml.
- Let the functions of the DB.pm Perl module not abort the whole program
when a C helper program fails.
- When generating PPDs with foomatic-ppdfile (also
/usr/lib/cups/driver/foomatic) handle driver names with a dash (like
"hpijs-pcl3") correctly.
- Documented special entities for inserting job parameters into
renderer command line code snippets, like "&job;", "&user;", "&host;",
"&title;", "&options;", ...
* debian/patches/db-pm-do-not-die-on-c-helper-failure.patch,
debian/patches/fix-ppd-generation-for-driver-name-with-dash.patch: Removed
patches with upstream fixes.

foomatic-db-engine (4.0.5-0ubuntu6) maverick; urgency=low
* debian/control: Do not recommend foomatic-db at all, as foomatic-db-engine
makes sense without foomatic-db to build packages, especially foomatic-db.
The system-installed foomatic-db-engine can also be used for inplace builds
of PPDs from Foomatic data, pointing to the Foomatic data with the
FOOMATICDB environment variable. This way we can install foomatic-db-engine
easily with apt-get also on desktop installations where foomatic-db cannot
be installed as it conflicts with foomatic-db-compressed-ppds. We put
foomatic-db into Suggests: now.
