[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#564299: cups: Please restore the non-JS web interface

[Michal Suchanek]

Package: cups
Version: 1.4.2-4
Severity: wishlist


After upgrade to cups 1.4.2 from 1.3.8 the web interface started to use
confusing and hard to navigate dopdowns which only work with JavaScript.

Also the interface changed color from a distinct CUPS theme to bland
white.

Please restore the previous functionality.

Thanks
