[Bug 637455] New: gutenprint: run cups-genppdupdate in RPM post-install
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=637455 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=637455#c0 Summary: gutenprint: run cups-genppdupdate in RPM post-install Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.4 Version: Factory Platform: All OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: ASSIGNED Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Printing AssignedTo: jsmeix@novell.com ReportedBy: jsmeix@novell.com QAContact: jsmeix@novell.com Found By: Development Blocker: --- See "Regarding CUPS PPD files" in https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=514994#c9 The README file in the Gutenprint sources reads: ------------------------------------------------------------------- If you attempt to use a version of Gutenprint with PPD files not built for that precise version, the driver will fail ------------------------------------------------------------------- so that existing print queues must be re-setup in any case (or the special tool "...genppdupdate..." can be used but I wonder what is easier for a normal user in the end). Robert Krawitz, the main-author of Gutenprint suggested to run cups-genppdupdate in RPM post-install: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Robert Krawitz Cc: gimp-print-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: ... How to compile Gutenprint with DefaultPageSize A4 ? .. My suggestion would be for the RPM package to have a post-install that runs cups-genppdupdate. If you think that that's too big of a hammer, or that you want some way of distinguishing between PPD files you supply and those produced by another copy of Gutenprint, we can suggest solutions. cups-genppdupdate is designed to be really simple and should be a lot easier than destroying and re-creating queues (and getting all the options right). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Furthermore I removed gutenprint-5.2.6-make_A4_DefaultPageSize.patch because it is useless because the DefaultPageSize in the PPD templates in /usr/share/cups/model/ does not matter because the cupsd sets the DefaultPageSize for PPDs in /etc/cups/ppd/ by default according to the locale that the cupsd runs in or according to a DefaultPaperSize entry in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf. Submitted gutenprint to its devel project "Printing" via submitrequest 49024 and forwarded this to openSUSE:Factory via submitrequest 49027. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
