Hi,
I'm cleaning up Mandriva's cups package. For a long time, Mandriva had this
patch [1] which makes cups use STDIN instead of (stdin) when printing from
standard input with lp or lpr. Apparently, this would have caused problems
when printing to a printer on a Windows server via Samba.
Do you know whether such a patch would still be needed and useful for
integration upstream?
