#2932 Tag request: hplip-3.9.8-20.fc12
Closed: Fixed None Opened 14 years ago by twaugh.

Please tag hplip-3.9.8-20.fc12 for f12-final. This is moderate priority due to a busy-loop fix. Here are the changes:

{{{
* Fri Oct 30 2009 Tim Waugh twaugh@redhat.com 3.9.8-20
- Reverted retry patch until it can be tested some more.

  • Thu Oct 29 2009 Tim Waugh twaugh@redhat.com 3.9.8-19
  • Retry when connecting to device fails (bug #528483).
  • Avoid busy loop in hpcups when backend has exited (bug #525944).

  • Wed Oct 28 2009 Tim Waugh twaugh@redhat.com 3.9.8-18

  • Set a printer-state-reason when there's a missing required plugin
    (bug #531330).
    }}}

The most important fix is for the busy loop in the hpcups filter. This can occur in any error condition that causes the backend to exit early.

This two retry changes cancel each other out.

The last fix is a counter-point to a fix that went in to system-config-printer-1.1.13-6.fc12. If a plugin is required for the printer, the appropriate state reason is set for the queue. This uses the state reason that was already defined in the PPDs -- it has been there for ages, just not used properly.

Both of these fixes are currently pending (or in testing) for Fedora 11. I have tested them myself.
