Thanks! Just a quick question: the check in add_job_subscriptions() is
catching non-NULL result of cupsdAddSubscription, but for the failed
subscription is does not inform user about this. The code in
create_subscription() returns error. Is it intentional? Client gets
nothing (at least 'lpr -m file.txt' outputs no error), but subscription
is silently dropped.
