[Libaps-general] Bugs and patches

[Dag <lon...@ge...>]

Hi,
I have had a look at libaps and I have found a couple of problems for whi=
ch=20
patches are included below. The orignals are from cvs kdesupport a couple=
 of=20
days ago.

Patches:

attrcommon.patch fixes a crash when reading fonts.

utils.patch corrects check for failure to open a file in CopyFileSpecial(=
).

lprtransport.patch deals with two things:
1. To be able to print the test page to my printer (hl-730 via ghostscrip=
t) I=20
had to a) add the input file to the gs command :) and b) supress headers =
(lpr=20
-h option) which I made as a new treatment under 'case LPR_IMPL_BSD:'. I =
am=20
sure this is not the best and adeqvate way to do it but at least I get th=
e=20
test page out.

2. Changes the way the if-filter is treated so that no filter is added if=
 the=20
filter masterfile is missing. I found that if the 'if' entry exists in th=
e=20
printcap file, a valid filter must exists or else nothing is printed.

Question: What does the lpr -l option have to do with flagBinary?
-l is listed as 'use a filter' in my man pages.
----
What's the general state of the project? Is it scheduled to be used by=20
someone (Corel for instance)?

Whats the state of the QT interface? I have compiled and run it and it=20
crashes on closedown but this may be my program, it is a very quick hack.
