Currently the package doesn’t install the rastertoufr2 filter although it is needed in some PPDs. In my case this is for Canon iR-ADV C3520i. I was able to work around this by copying the missing file from the debian amd64 deb package. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install cndrvcups-lb 2. Configure a printer which’s PPD uses rastertoufr2 (eg. Canon iR-ADV C3520i) 3. Attempt to print a page Actual Results: /var/lib/cups/error_log contains: E [30/Sep/2019:12:10:33 +0200] Canon-iR-C3520: File \"/usr/libexec/cups/filter/rastertoufr2\" not available: No such file or directory E [30/Sep/2019:12:10:33 +0200] [Job 134] Unable to start filter "rastertoufr2" - No such file or directory. The print job appears as stopped. Expected Results: The print job is forwarded to the printer.
That comes from newer major version... but it seems it will need a completely reworked ebuild for cn*r*drvcups https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cnrdrvcups-lb/ But I almost lost access to the unique printer that was still using it... hence, I will move this to maintainer-needed Of course anyway can try to maintain it: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Proxy_Maintainers
Created attachment 602420 [details] cnrdrvcups-lb-5.00.ebuild Hey, here's my take on net-print/cnrdrvcups-lb-5.00. It includes the file you are looking for, § equery f cnrdrvcups-lb | grep rastertoufr2 /usr/lib64/cups/filter/rastertoufr2 It has one more QA warning I want to solve before pushing it, I have no idea what's causing it though. New eyes / new day could help. Also any kind of feedback is welcome, the ebuild is a MESS but seems to work for me. Note that it's indeed renamed, from "cndrvcups-lb" to "cnrdrvcups-lb".
* QA Notice: Missing soname symlink(s): * * usr/lib64/libColorGearC.so.2 -> libColorGearCufr2.so.2.0.0 * Here's the QA notice I was talking about, it makes no sense to me...
Still TODO in the ebuild (for another day): - handle symlinking of /usr/lib64/cups/filter/* -> /usr/libexec/cups/filter/* (rastertoufr2 will only work after this, but it works with symlinking) - install documentation and possibly language files - test on x86 - use for loops in src_install to shrink it... perhaps - need to figure which will be easier and better for long-term maintenance I just printed few papers so it's working here, those are the notes that I need to fix before pushing this to ::gentoo. Still, more testing and more eyes on the ebuild are welcome. I'd also welcome a co-maintainer for it since I use my home printer once in a blue moon. But when I do use it, it needs to work...
