    printing: List Avahi printers · eed9e72e
    Marek Kašík authored
    Show printers advertised by avahi on local network. CUPS
    backend now looks for _ipps._tcp and _ipp._tcp services
    offered by avahi. If it finds such a service (printer)
    it requests its attributes through IPP_GET_PRINTER_ATTRIBUTES
    ipp request and adds it to the list of printers. Such printer
    behaves like a remote printer then.
    If an avahi printer is a default printer then it is considered
    default by the backend only if there is no local or remote
    default printer.
    This functionality is enabled when building Gtk+ with CUPS 1.6
    or later because it replaces browsing protocol removed in CUPS 1.6.
