cannot install manually gutenprint

OS: Centos 5.3

I downloaded gutenprint-5.2.4.tar.bz2 from http://sourceforge.net/projects/gimp...utenprint-5.2/

Have follow http://ftp.evolva.ro/zenwalk/source/...-gutenprint.sh

but when I make -j2 i discovered some error in the config.log file.

Code:

configure:5834: /usr/bin/nm -B conftest.o \| sed -n -e 's/^.*[  ]\([ABCDGIRSTW][ABCDGIRSTW]*\)[        ][      ]*\([_A-Za-z][_A-Za-z0-9]*\)$/\1 \2 \2/p' \> conftest.nm

configure:6846: $? = 0

configure:6877: gcc -E  conftest.c

conftest.c:10:28: error: ac_nonexistent.h: No such file or directory

when I google around "conftest.c:10:28: error: ac_nonexistent.h: No such file or directory"

from http://osdir.com/ml/linux.drivers.op.../msg00048.html, it suggest make clean

I've done a make clean, then make -j2, but still the error is still in config.log.

from http://osdir.com/ml/linux.drivers.op.../msg00048.html, it suggest make clean

Quote:

It seems you're missing development headers for a bunch of packages.
Check they are actually missing and possibly try to 'make clean' before
trying to build again.

in the first place how do I know which development packages are missing? I've already done

Code:

yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'

How should I resolved this bugging issues?

thanks a lot!

'build-gutenprint.sh' is for zenwalk / slackware.
( arch = i486 , should be i386.? )
and probably also missing out the patching in this one

first of all, what do you need ? This time I’m not giving direct rpms links, just to avoid mistakes, and make the guide more easy…

Install Cups (usually already installed, it’s better if 1.3.4 or newer)

Install Gutenprint (please use the lastest, at least the 5.0.1, do not use the old one included in fedora’s 7 CD)

Install gutenprint-foomatic

Install the Mp160 Printer Drivers ver. 2.70 avaiable from Canon (RPM and Source code avaible — they’re useful even for Mp150 — file names are cnijfilter-common-2.70-1.i386.rpm & cnijfilter-mp160-2.70-1.i386.rpm)

so I install gutenprint-foomatic

here's my output

thanks a lot!

So what is the package you name 'libgimpprint' ?
And from where did you get it ?

I don't know of any such package for EL5 / CentOS 5.x.

my distribution Centos 5.3

sorry don't get what u mean when u ask what is the package u name libgimpprint?

I believe I get it from installation of gutenprint

the above code states that libgimpprint is part of gimp-print, right? And since on http://gutenprint.sourceforge.net/

it stated

Quote:

Gimp-Print Becomes Gutenprint

I believe the libgimpprint.so.1 appears after the installation of gutenprint.

but as stated in http://thesorcerer.wordpress.com/200...nter-in-linux/

I need to install Install gutenprint-foomatic in order to set up canon Mp 160

as to How to install gutenprint, I follow your instructions

Quote:

probably also missing out the patching in this one
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pu...2.fc12.src.rpm

so I download gutenprint-5.2.4-4.fc10.src.rpm and do a rpmbuild.

after that I edited the gutenprint-5.2.4-4.spec

as stated by you

Quote:

line 7 was edited to "el5" : Release: 2el5%{?dist}
line 226 : %{_libdir}/gimp/*/plug-ins/print

and later as stated on http://www.owlriver.com/tips/patching_srpms/

after rebuild with the new specification files, all the rpms will be build in a directory.

Code:

[doordie@localhost gutenprint-5.2.4-5]$ ls -lrth ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/i386/

Well, enough about that, the issue is, gutenprint-foomatic
needs the option " --nodeps " to install :

rpm -Uvh --nodeps gutenprint-foomatic-5.2.4-2el5.i386.rpm

.. This happens for one out of 100(0) ? packages.
.. The rpm package management is only 99.(9) % reliable, I guess.
