Package it is enough to simply release this repo as a Debian package So if there is no one at Debian having time to maintain the Repository for its debian/ directory and I will commit alll my changes This way we can also proceed for Gutenprint. Takes snapshots of the repository as Debian packages and puts in fixes Upstream version or a fix of a bug reported to Ubuntu and Marc Purcell

#Gutenprint vs foomatic update#

For HPLIP I usually update the package when there is a new Repositories which leads to one package maintenance effort for bothĭistros. (and also other developers) upload all the changes into these Repositories from which both Debian and Ubuntu packages are released. Some of these packages (cupsys, hplip) are managed in Debian SVN HPLIP, Foomatic, Ghostscript, system-config-printer) for Ubuntu. I am maintaing Gutenprint and several other printing packages (drivers, Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Gutenprint was formerly known as Gimp-Print.

This package includes a CUPS driver based on Gutenprint. I'll continue to be available to co-maintain if you like, and I do knowĪ fair bit about its internals (I am, albeit currently inactive, an

What it really needs is proper testing and bugs being The package isn't too complex, though there are quite a fewīinary packages. Release due out in the next week or so (5.2.0). Part of the printing infrastructure in Debian. Gutenprint is used for printing on EPSON, Canon, Olympus, and some HPĪnd other makes of printer via CUPS, LPRng etc. Longer have an inkjet printer for testing and bug fixing.

I've put some code in to handle N-color support, but initial tests The next thing I'm going to work on is the Epson Stylus Photo R800. This is a key milestone on the way to 5.0 release. Thanks to Grant Taylor and Till Kamppeter for assistance. Gutenprint it needs to be fixed in Foomatic. Rm -f /usr/local/share/foomatic/db/source/opt/gutenprint-ijs*īefore running make install.
