Yellow Dog Linux Bugfix Announcement
------------------------------------

Package:	redhat-config-printer
Issue Date:	Jul 10,2003   
Priority:	medium
Advisory ID: 	YDU-20030710-3


1. 	Topic:

	Updated redhat-config-printer packages are available.


2. 	Problem:

	"The redhat-config-printer packages contain graphical and text-based printer
	configuration tools.

	A number of bugs have been found in these tools:

	- A problem with the 'browsed queues' feature of the graphical
	configuration tool has been addressed.

	- Other fixes in this release involve the strict RFC 1179 compliance
	setting, serial printers connected to ports on multi-port serial cards
	(i.e. not onboard ports), some queue configurations not being upgraded
	correctly, and SMB printing.

	Additionally, PTAL (Peripheral Transport Abstraction Library) support has
	been added, supporting devices accessible via the hpoj package.

	Users of redhat-config-printer that are impacted by these issues should
	install these updated packages."

	From Red Hat Advisory
