 Please tag system-config-printer-1.1.13-6.fc12 for f12-final.  This is
 moderate priority due to one of the bugs involving a traceback.

 Here are the changes:

 {{{
 * Fri Oct 30 2009 Tim Waugh <twaugh at redhat.com> 1.1.13-6
 - Avoid traceback in IPP notification handlers (bug #530641).
 - Avoid epydoc dependency.

 * Thu Oct 29 2009 Tim Waugh <twaugh at redhat.com> 1.1.13-5
 - Added upstream patch for custom state reasons (bug #531872).
 - Strip 'zjs' from make-and-model as well (bug #531869).
 }}}

 The most important fix is the one preventing a traceback in certain
 conditions (bug #530641).  This fix is simple and targeted: it wraps some
 function calls with try..except for a specific exception.

 Next most important is the custom state reasons support (bug #531872).
 This small allows us to show a sensible error message when HPLIP tries to
 use a printer for which it requires a proprietary plugin.  This does not
 add any translatable string to system-config-printer.  The patch has been
 upstream in the master branch since August and I have back-ported it to
 1.1.x (which required only one change).

 The 'zjs' fix (bug #531869) is a cosmetic UI fix, but one worthwhile
 fixing to avoid confusing display of model names.

 Finally, the epydoc dependency removal is a build simplification.

 I have tested all the fixes myself individually and am running system-
 config-printer-1.1.13-6.fc12 here without problems.
