I used to use cups a long time ago, and did also believe that pstoraster was necessary to use gimp-print (gutenprint), because that's how evey other OS was doing it. but then I discovered IJS. so, I know pstoraster is not needed for gimp-print (gutenprint) to work with cups. I tested this recently as well. there *may* be other uses for pstoraster, but I am not aware of them. if there are, there is probably another way to implement them with ghostscript and/or foomatic. > If that's correct, > I'll wait for ports depending on ghostscript,-cups beeing updated > and then I'll commit the ghostscript update with the cups flavor > removed. > > Ciao, > Ki "never used cups" li > > On Sun, Mar 23, 2008 at 12:44:35PM +0000, Jacob Meuser wrote: > > Date: Sun, 23 Mar 2008 12:44:35 +0000 > > From: Jacob Meuser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > To: ports@openbsd.org > > Subject: Re: update: print/ghostscript/gnu > > Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > X-CRM114-Status: Good ( pR: 53.6595 ) > > > > On Sun, Mar 23, 2008 at 12:32:13PM +0100, Antoine Jacoutot wrote: > > > On Sun, 23 Mar 2008, Jacob Meuser wrote: > > > >yep.
