brother-ql700-bin-3.1.5.0-r1.ebuild
Thank you for your contribution. I had a short look on the ebuild. Here a few ideas: • Please test the ebuild with repoman full -d -x https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Repoman • Please remove obsolete (and most of the empty) lines • KEYWORDS need ~ after a version bump (or new ebuid) run ekeyword ~all YOUREBUILD • please fix the header. (see /usr/portage/skel.ebuild and https://devmanual.gentoo.org/ebuild-writing/eapi/) • A bot can look for additional mistakes, if you upload a PR via github OK, Jonas, I have made the changes you suggested and then run repoman -dx full : RepoMan scours the neighborhood... LICENSE.invalid [fatal] 1 net-print/brother-ql700-bin/brother-ql700-bin-3.1.5.0-r1.ebuild: brother-eula metadata.missing [fatal] 1 net-print/brother-ql700-bin/metadata.xml Please fix these important QA issues first. RepoMan sez: "Make your QA payment on time and you'll never see the likes of me." ---------------------------- On the Brother website, I right-clicked on the frame showing the EULA and save the html file to brother-eula and added it to my ebuild directory and regenerated the manifest, but repoman doesn't like it. Also found the developer page for metadata.xml but haven't created a minimal metadata.xml file yet. I can attach my current ebuild. Do I need to bump the version number to -r2 or distinguish it on this bug page somehow? Created attachment 617618 [details]

Updated ebuild.
I've found I need to change /opt/brother/PTouch/ql700/cupswrapper/brother_lpdwrapper_ql700 line 47 to: my $basedir = `readlink -f $0`; and chmod +x /opt/brother/PTouch/ql700/lpd/filter_ql700 /opt/brother/PTouch/ql700/lpd/rastertobrpt1 to get past a lot of errors. I'm still not getting anything to print. So I think this still needs work.

Nor does that have anything to do with whether this ebuild should be used or not.

I'm still not getting anything to print. So I > think this still needs work. I apparently didn't get back to this after I got my printer to work. This works for me, you just need to know there's some stupid mode on the printer "editor lite" mode or something like that. Once you turn that off (the LED over it goes out) it prints fine. Frustrating manufacturer defect in my mind. TL;DR: I support this ebuild for what it's worth. One last thing I'd like to add, this driver also seems to work perfectly fine for the QL800 (just tested right now). |
