PAPPL 1.4.x Incompatibility - Options and State using the same filenames! #129

Closed michaelrsweet closed 4 months ago

michaelrsweet commented 4 months ago

It has come to my attention that PAPPL 1.4's new option support conflicts with the historical state filenames for lprint (lprint.conf).

In order to separate configuration/state from options, PAPPL by default uses BASENAME.state for state and printer configuration and BASENAME.conf for server configuration (read-only). LPrint needs to migrate to the new file naming conventions and ideally should stop using its own system callback now that the default is fully functional.

Hopefully we won't run into too many cases where the lprint.conf filename would have been used. The new system callback follows PAPPL's method (which follows the corresponding platform standards...):
