New subject: [Bug 12468] winspool doesn't use CUPS ports, always uses lpr

      http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12468
Summary: winspool doesn't use CUPS ports, always uses lpr
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.58.
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=475138
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: spooler
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org
        ReportedBy: ovek@arcticnet.no
In dlls/winspool.drv/info.c, function CUPS_LoadPrinters, there's
        sprintf(port,"LPR:%s",dests[i].name);
instead of "CUPS:%s" or whatever, which means that when printing things will be
printed through spawning lpr instead of using the CUPS libraries. This
unnecessarily adds an additional external dependency (Debian users need the
cupsys-bsd package), when there already appears to be code there to print using
the library, but that's unused right now.
(Also, please 0.9.59 to the list of versions, this was reported on 0.9.59, not
0.9.58.)
