Very Many Thanks for it to Carl-Daniel Hailfinger!
You're welcome!
As soon as possible (i.e. when I get time to do it), I will provide the newest stable gutenprint version via the Printing project in the openSUSE build service.
I took great care in making a merge of my home:kernelhacker cups-drivers package very easy. Since the package is a branch of the Printing project, providing the newest stable gutenprint version in Printing should be as easy as running osc request accept 19440 -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

It must wait after openSUSE 11.2 is done because up to this time I need the stuff in the Printing project to be exactly what there is currently in Factory/11.2
Sure. So you'll accept an updated submitrequest once 11.2 is out? Great.
For the next openSUSE version I like to spilt Gutenprint away from the huge cups-drivers package[...].
Good idea.
I would very much appreciate it when you could make your Gutenprint as a separated stand-alone "gutenprint" package and not as sub-package of the huge cups-drivers package.
I can try. How do we handle compatibility with older distributions? Will cups-drivers simply list gutenprint as "Requires"? I want to minimize nasty surprises for users who upgrade. There is one thing I'm worried about: The following command line is executed inside foomatic-db-engine, but it references the gutenprint sources. Will splitting the packages still work? perl ./foomatic-kitload -k ./gutenprint/src/foomatic/foomatic-db/gutenprint-ijs.%{gutenprintmajor} -f
This means in particular to avoid all Suse-specific patches. For example - as far as I know - the Gutenprint main author may in particular not like our "A4" patch, because on gimp-print-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Robert Krawitz wrote:
I reworked that patch to address the complaints of Robert. It does not touch margins anymore and only changes the order in which the paper sizes are listed to have A4 as default. If there is another way to make A4 the default, I'd like to hear about it so I can do the right thing.
A Gutenprint version upgrade as a new stand-alone package "gutenprint" is the perfect chance to drop all our own patches to enforce a hard reset back to 100% compliance with upstream.
Sure. I already had disabled all gutenprint patches except the one making A4 the default, but I forgot to delete the patch files. I did that now.
Again many thanks for your work!
You're welcome! I'll tell you about my progress. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
