When I first executed groff, it said "Can't open
file /etc/papersize". It still printed, but the
paging on multi-page documents wasn't right.
I found a line in my /usr/share/groff/font/devps/DESC
file that said "paperfile /etc/papersize", but there
was no file "papersize" under /etc (or anywhere else).
On my previous redhat (5.0) and suse (6.4) systems,
their devps/DESC file was identical to that on
debian, except the "paperfile" line was replaced
with "paperlength 792000".
I made that substitution, and everything now seems to
work fine. (Actually, I used 841890 instead of
792000, because my default media type is "A4", not
"Letter").
My question is, why was that "paperfile" line in my
DESC file, when the /etc/papersize file doesn't
exist? Anyone know?
(I'm running 2.2r3, and CUPS).
