I have recently installed Debian for the first time and tried installing
the apsfilter package as apsfilter worked well on my previous
Slackware Linux system. However, I am unable to get the new
installation to work. I am able to print fine if I force it to ascii
mode using the -Pascii option. However the default setting fails with
all file types.
The error message from the log:
+ ...many lines of output deleted...
+ PRINT_PS= gs
-q
-sDEVICE=ljet2p -sPAPERSIZE=letter -dNOPAUSE -dSAFER
-sOutputFile=-
+ '[' '' = True ']'
+ '[' '' = True ']'
++ file -
/usr/lib/apsfilter/filter/aps-ljet2p-letter-auto-mono: file: command not
found
+ set --
+ shift
+ shift
+ FILE_TYPE=
+ rewindstdin
...output continues... (do you need more?)
All filters are present. File permissions are correct. I've tried
reinstalling the package. All paths are correct and entered in the
GLOBAL.sh script. One of the apsfilter directories has a readme that
mentions a /etc/magic file which is NOT present on my system (I had one
on the old Slackware system). I tried to create a magic file using the
samples in the apsfilter package but it didn't help.
I'm at a total loss as to what to do next (other than go back to
Slackware!) Any suggestions would be really appreciated. I can't
afford to loss any more hair and I'm yanking it out by the handful now!
Thanks in advance!
