[Pkg-cups-devel] 60_device_uri.dpatch purpose?

[Martin Pitt]

Hi Kenshi,

I'm currently working on cleaning up all the cups patches. I wondered
about this one, the purpose is not clear to me:

  * 60_device_uri: preserve old URI during the printer configuration on
    Web interface.

-      if (strncmp(attr->values[0].string.text, var, strlen(var)) == 0)
+      /* if (strncmp(attr->values[0].string.text, var, strlen(var)) == 0) */
        cgiSetVariable("DEVICE_URI", attr->values[0].string.text);
     }

Do you have some more details on this? If so, can you please explain
them here, or even better, file an upstream STR about the bug, so that
the fix can go upstream?

Thank you!

Martin
