Hi all
After having discovered the missing printers in epdfview, I also noticed
that they don't show up in libreoffice. I must add that I don't compile
libreoffice myself, but use the x64 binary from libreoffice.org.
However, a search in google resulted in a discussion on archlinux, where
the same problem with libreoffice and cups 2.2.4 is mentioned:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=227947
There, the consensus seems to be to downgrade to cups 2.2.3. Does
anybody experience the same problem with cups 2.2.4 and libreoffice?
Sorry for my lack in concentration, but after some furthe reading, I
found the solution:
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/54695 mentions the fix for this problem,
which has now been commited by apple:
https://github.com/apple/cups/commit/b2f85109da901eb652babdc4f2a846c1c28228ff
This will fix the issue with libreoffice and also epdfview, rendering my
epdfview obsolete. I have attached the patch to this mail, it applies to
cups 2.2.4 and fixes the missing printer option. It's the exactly the
apple fix shown in the above commit.
Cheers
