Package: cups Version: 1.3.11-1+b1 Severity: normal
According to /usr/share/doc/cups/changelog.gz, version 1.3.10 changed the default hostname lookup behaviour, from performing hostname lookups to not performing them. If your /etc/cupsd.conf relies on them (e.g. with Allow *.localnet), and you choose to leave it unchanged during the package upgrade, your entire network suddenly becomes unable to print or connect to the http://server.localnet:631 interface. The new package should issue a debconf warning about this change - or at the very least the HostName Lookup option should be added to the new cupsd.conf.dpkg-dist to show the new default value, with a comment warning that this is different from the old default value.
