 Please tag hplip-3.9.8-20.fc12 for f12-final.  This is moderate priority
 due to a busy-loop fix.  Here are the changes:

 {{{
 * Fri Oct 30 2009 Tim Waugh <twaugh at redhat.com> 3.9.8-20
 - Reverted retry patch until it can be tested some more.

 * Thu Oct 29 2009 Tim Waugh <twaugh at redhat.com> 3.9.8-19
 - Retry when connecting to device fails (bug #528483).
 - Avoid busy loop in hpcups when backend has exited (bug #525944).

 * Wed Oct 28 2009 Tim Waugh <twaugh at redhat.com> 3.9.8-18
 - Set a printer-state-reason when there's a missing required plugin
   (bug #531330).
 }}}

 The most important fix is for the busy loop in the hpcups filter.  This
 can occur in any error condition that causes the backend to exit early.

 This two retry changes cancel each other out.

 The last fix is a counter-point to a fix that went in to system-config-
 printer-1.1.13-6.fc12.  If a plugin is required for the printer, the
 appropriate state reason is set for the queue.  This uses the state reason
 that was already defined in the PPDs -- it has been there for ages, just
 not used properly.

 Both of these fixes are currently pending (or in testing) for Fedora 11.
 I have tested them myself.
