Package Information

CUPS Filters Dependencies

Required

libcupsfilters-2.0.0 and libppd-2.0.0

Installation of CUPS Filters

Install CUPS Filters by running the following commands:

./configure --prefix=/usr                   \
            --disable-static                \
            --disable-avahi                 \
            --docdir=/usr/share/doc/cups-filters-2.0.0 &&
make

This package does not come with a functional test suite.

Now, as the root user:

make install

Command Explanations

--disable-static: このスイッチはスタティックライブラリをインストールしないようにします。

--disable-avahi: This switch should be given even Avahi is installed. This is needed due to a flaw in the configure script of CUPS Filters, where it will bail out if Avahi is not installed. Note though that Avahi is not used by this package.
