a) Hmm it certainly looks like that is being put off.
b) It certainly looks to be later - it sticks 3.01 as the xpdf version (I
extracted the pdftops binary from
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Printing/SLE_10/x86_64/cups-1.3.7-...
).
c) The wrapper is certainly in use on Debian/Ubuntu's latest releases of CUPS -
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/cupsys/+changelog :
"[ Till Kamppeter ]
* debian/patches/pdftops-cups-1.4.dpatch, debian/local/filters/pdftops:
Replaced Helge Blischke's alternative pdftops wrapper by the pdftops
of CUPS 1.4. The old pdftops wrapper did not work with the pdftops
filter of Poppler, the new one works with the pdftops filters of both
Poppler and XPDF (Closes: #457810; Ubuntu LP: #182379)."
The Ubuntu builds of cupsys are on
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cupsys/1.3.2-1ubuntu7 and the patch can be
found in
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/cupsys/1.3.7-1ubuntu2/+files/cups...
I think I will see if I can find a precompiled pdftops 3.02 from xpdf-utils
and compile the CUPS 1.4/Debian/Ubuntu wrapper to use it...
