Package: libcups2
Version: 1.6.3-1
Severity: normal
Let FOO be a printer configured in CUPS with an
ipp://foo.localdomain.tld/something device uri.
Mine is a Konica Minolto C353.
All cups clients fail to show printing options.
"lpoptions -d FOO -l" says:
lpoptions: Unable to get PPD file for FOO: Not Found
A wireshark shows a request for http://device_ip:631/ipp.ppd,
to which the printer replies by a 404.
The attached patch disables that undesirable behaviour, which is new
in 1.6 (did not happen in 1.5).
