Fixed In Version: cups-1.3.7-24.el5
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
The unsupported-character-set error message used the formatting: "Unsupported character set [host.name] from host [character.set]! Clients must use us-ascii or utf-8." This was due to a mistake in the error message formatting. With this update, the parameters are swapped and the error message uses the correct parameter order.

Description Tim Waugh 2010-06-25 12:12:09 UTC
Description of problem:
The arguments to the unsupported-character-set message are swapped, so that it looks like:

Unsupported character set \"host.name\" from host iso-8859-1! Clients must use us-ascii or utf-8.  Future versions will reject this request.

It's trivial to swap the parameters round.

When a client uses an unsupported character set, an error message is logged.  A mistake in the error message formatting caused some words to be swapped around.  The formatting has now been fixed.
