** Description changed:

  I needed to print few tickets for travel. But as they did not appeared
  on my printer I took a look at http://localhost:631/ and discovered
  this:
  
  "The PPD version (5.2.7) is not compatible with Gutenprint 5.2.8-pre1."
  
  Had to print to PDF and do printing from MS Windows laptop...
+ 
+ [Test Case] To reproduce: Upgrade from Gutenprint 5.2.7 to
+ 5.2.8~pre1-0ubuntu2 does not update the PPD files of existing queues. To
+ test, create a Gutenprint-based print queue on a system with 5.2.7 then
+ run
+ 
+ grep -i gutenprint /etc/cups/ppd/*.ppd
+ 
+ and see that the PPD files are of Gutenprint version 5.2.7. Update to
+ 5.2.8~pre1-0ubuntu2 and run
+ 
+ grep -i gutenprint /etc/cups/ppd/*.ppd
+ 
+ The PPDs are still not upgraded. Update from 5.2.7 or
+ 5.2.8~pre1-0ubuntu2 to 5.2.8~pre1-0ubuntu2.1 and your PPD files get
+ updated to 5.2.8pre1.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential] Only change is the timestamp of one file. So
+ regressions should not be possible.

** Changed in: gutenprint (Ubuntu Precise)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Committed
