I have packaged the new Gutenprint release as distribution-independent LSB package now and uploaded it to OpenPrinting. The packages and instructions on how to install them you find on: http://www.openprinting.org/show_driver.cgi?driver=gutenprint The source RPM is here http://www.openprinting.org/download/printdriver/SRPMS/ There are no source files for the Debian packages, as they are converted from the RPMs with alien. The package can be installed without uninstalling the Gutenprint provided by the Linux distribution. Besides the update to the new release fixes were done to assure that queues with simplified PPDs will not be upgraded to expert PPDs when installing the package. The PPDs of all Gutenprint queues will be replaced by their counterparts of Gutenprint 5.2.2. In printer setup tools choose the OpenPrinting driver by selecting the PPD/driver entry which mentions "OpenPrinting". Note that the package does not include the plug-in for the GIMP. Till |
