Bugzilla Bug 180527

bluez-utils-3.11 contains a cups backend to print to bluetooth printers.
the executable file "bluetooth" gets installed into /usr/lib64/cups/backend/
rather than /usr/libexec/cups/backend/ where cups-1.2.9 expects it to be.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge bluez-utils
2. try to use bluetooth:// urls in cups and notice that it won't work.
3. look into /usr/lib64/cups/backend
  -> find a displaced and lonely bluetooth backend

Actual Results:  
printing to bluetooth printers doesn't work

Expected Results:  
it should be possible to use bluetooth printers

when moving the file from /usr/lib64/cups/backend to /usr/libexec/cups/backend,
cups will find it and everything is fine.

What should be done?
Should there be a fix for this in the ebuild or should the Makefile.in of the
upstream package be patched to install the cups-backend into the correct
location?
I'm willing to contribute, please guide me what to do next!

yeah, you just need to patch the makefile/configure to look in cups-config
--serverbin

I realized there are no nice m4 macros for cups.
But so I can still do it just like it is done in foomatic-db-engine ebuild.
sed is used src_unpack() to replace the string in Makefile.am.
the same can be done here.
sed -i -e "s:\$(libdir)/cups/backend:$(cups-config --serverbin)/cups/backend:"
cups/Makefile.am

but it would be nicer to make configure call cups-config and declare a variable
for the result.
how to do this?

Patch added.

Marking as fixed.
