CUPS Cloud Print Second March Release – older CUPS bugfix

calendar Mar 8, 2014 · cloud cups google cloud print Linux printing

I discovered shortly after releasing the March release that distros running older versions of CUPS or PyCUPS ( CentOS 6 and Ubuntu 10.04 were the ones I noticed ) had an issue with the longer printer URIs that are now used in the 20140307 release onwards. To fix this, I’ve released a new version ( 20140308 ) which uses only the account and printer ids in the URI that CUPS uses.

Full changelog:

  • Fix: Use shorter URI format to workaround issue on older distros having a short max length on printer URIs
