Bug#908922: xpp: deprecated cupsTempFile is used: printing stdin fails
Package: xpp
Version: 1.5-cvs20081009-4
Severity: important
When using xpp to print from stdin, e.g. via xpdf or simply using:
$ cat my.pdf | xpp
xpp fails with "Unable to create temporary file." when pressing the
Print button.

it seems that cupsTempFile is used, which is deprecated and
now always returns NULL. According to cups api doc, cupsTempFile2 or
similar should be used.
