hi before something thanks, i got some problems when i try to install my printer because there is a message that tells me that you cant install yor printer because there are not cups
"all my updates are ready on your system" aldought everething its updated when i tried to install cups this is the dialog "Lo siento, no se puede seleccionar el paquete siguiente:
- cups-1.3.0-3.3mdv2008.0.i586" it say that i cant select that cups - Common Unix Printing System - Server package
Importancia: security
Razón para actualizar: Alin Rad Pop found several flaws in how PDF files are handled in cups. An attacker could create a malicious PDF file that would cause cups to crash or potentially execute arbitrary code when opened.
The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
CUPS 1.2 is fully compatible with CUPS-1.1 machines in the network and
with software built against CUPS-1.1 libraries.
The Common Unix Printing System provides a portable printing layer for
UNIX(TM) operating systems. It has been developed by Easy Software Products
to promote a standard printing solution for all UNIX vendors and users.
CUPS provides the System V and Berkeley command-line interfaces.
This is the main package needed for CUPS servers (machines where a
printer is connected to or which host a queue for a network
printer). It can also be used on CUPS clients so that they simply pick
up broadcasted printer information from other CUPS servers and do not
need to be assigned to a specific CUPS server by an
/etc/cups/client.conf file.
