7.304.1. RHBA-2013:1163 — cups bug fix update
Updated cups packages that fix a bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
The Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) provides a portable printing layer for Linux, UNIX, and similar operating systems.
Bug Fix
- BZ#994480
- For queues using the "ipp" back-end, print jobs containing more than one file were previously treated as though all files were in the same format as the first file in the job when transferring the job to the remote IPP system. This has been corrected by declaring each file as having an unknown document format ("application/octet-stream") for multiple file jobs, and leaving format detection to the remote IPP system.
All users of cups are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
