[hpoj-devel] Red Hat vs SuSe initscript

[Maurizio S. <m.s...@is...>]

  Looking at the hpoj packages by Jarl Friis (thanks for your previous 
answer) seems to me that the main difference between RedHat and SuSe dists is 
the init.d  & rc.d directory tree (/sbin for SuSe, /etc for Red Hat).

  Another thing to look at is the correct place for ieee12844*.o modules, and 
I don't know if it is dist-dependant (I only  know Red Hat) ; the same place 
fo parport* mods could be a solution.

  Since ptal-printd creates a special file pointed by /etc/printcap, lpd 
blocks when it is re/started before ptal-printd does, so lpd initscript must 
look at ptal-printd or manage it. Another solution could be to force lpd to 
restart from a different file such /etc/printcap.hpoj by ptal-printd script.

  I am a hpoj user not a developer, so excuse me for these maybe-boring 
instances.

  Bye
