I clean up a bunch of my unused printers.
Problem: printers with the same long name, except for
the end still show is certain programs.

Which is the way it is suppose to be.
But programs using reading printers using cupsGetDests2,
still get the old deleted printers:
The text: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=167701
The Binary: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=167702
#include <iostream>
#include <cups/cups.h>
int main() {
cups_dest_t* dests;
int nCount = cupsGetDests2(CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT, &dests);
for (int i = 0; i < nCount; i++) {
cups_dest_t dest = dests[i];
std::cout << dest.name << std::endl;
}
}

Cups_PDF_rn6 <-- deleted
Oki_B4350_on_dev_lp0_rn6 <-- deleted

Programs without the problem (a sampling):
Brave Browser, Firefox, Vivaldi, Water Fox,
Leafpad, Simple scan, Gimp, Inkscape, Thunderbird,
Geany, Shotwell, PDF Studio 2019
Programs with the problem (also a sampling):
Wine, Libre Office, Free Office, Master PDF Editor
Any ideas? Is cupsGetDests2 not the proper way of dong this?
