Created attachment 348320 [details] output of emerge --info after installing net-print/cups-1.6.2-r4:0 printing fails with messages like "/etc/cups/${EPREFIX}/usr/libexec/cups/filter/commandtops" file not found the unexpanded string ${EPREFIX} appears in several files: # grep EPREFIX /usr/bin/cups-config cups_serverbin=${EPREFIX}/usr/libexec/cups # grep EPREFIX /usr/sbin/cups* Binary file /usr/sbin/cupsd matches Binary file /usr/sbin/cupsfilter matches The EPREFIX string should have been replaced at installation time. A quite ugly but effective workaround is to create a symbolic link: # ln -s / '/etc/cups/${EPREFIX}'

Meh. That's what happens if you blindly trust other people to test. Give me a moment.
This is fixed in 1.6.2-r5. Please rebuild cups-filters after upgrading to be sure everything is OK.
That doesn't solve the problem for me: # emerge -pv cups cups-filters These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

Removing the backup file /etc/init.d/#cups-browsed# (don't know where that came from) doesn't help either.
(In reply to comment #7) > That doesn't solve the problem for me: > Still the printer has the status > > Paused - "Backend /etc/cups/${EPREFIX}/usr/libexec/cups/backend/socket does > not exist!" did you try manually restarting the printer?
(In reply to comment #9) > did you try manually restarting the printer? No, I thought restarting cups would do that. Thanks, resuming the printers made them working again. Sorry for complaining and thanks again for the fix and the hint!
