novell-iprint-xclient

Changes since Thu Aug 31 01:44:59 CEST 2006 did not make it into this build because those were made for "sable", not for 'sle10-sp'. However, I did add teh RPM_OPT_FLAGS change to the spec file. This release increases the version number to match our window's clients and mac client's version numbers for clients to be release for and in the cypress time frame. Versions will be 50x now. That change will be in the RPM name as well as in the source code and displayed in a browser when "about:plugins" is typed in the location area.
