We have a CUPS server 1.3 and my freshly installed Ubuntu 13.04 PC has CUPS client 1.6.2. They are incompatible.
On the CUPS web server I saw that CUPS 1.6.3 has fixed the issue.
"CUPS 1.6.3 fixes some compatibility issues with servers running CUPS 1.3.12 or older..."
So I would like to replace CUPS 1.6.2 with 1.6.3 on my Ubuntu 13.04 PC. I guess Ubuntu 13.10 will have CUPS 1.6.3 and later I would like to upgrade from 13.04 to 13.10. I would thus prefer avoiding installing CUPS 1.6.3 manually to avoid any troubles.
Is there a way to install CUPS version 1.6.3 using a ppa or something like that ?
