[STR New]
When using CUPS 1.3.6 as a client to a remote CUPS queue, the
auth-info-required attribute is not set on the client's queue.
1. Set up a CUPS server on the network and share a queue using CUPS
Browsing. Add this policy fragment:
<Limit Print-Job Create-Job>
AuthType Basic
Require valid-user
</Limit>
so that authentication is required before a job can be submitted.
2. Configure a CUPS 1.3.6 client to discover browsed printers using CUPS
Browsing
3. On this client machine, submit a print job to the browsed queue. The
job will stop because authentication is required.
4. Send a Get-Job-Attributes IPP request for that job to the client, and
observe that job-hold-until=='auth-info-required'
5. Send a Get-Printer-Attributes IPP request for the browsed printer to
the client, and observe that there is no 'auth-info-required' attribute.
Although auth_info_required has (presumably) been set in the printer
structure, no 'auth-info-required' attribute has been created for it.
