Introduction to CUPS Filters

The CUPS Filters package is only needed to adapt libcupsfilters-2.1.1 and libppd-2.1.1 filter functions for cups-2.x. It should not be needed for cups-3.x.

[注意]

注意

Development versions of BLFS may not build or run some packages properly if LFS or dependencies have been updated since the most recent stable versions of the books.

CUPS Filters Dependencies

Required

libcupsfilters-2.1.1 and libppd-2.1.1

cups-browsed-2.1.1 (if you need Network Discovery capabilities)

Installation of CUPS Filters

First, fix a problem when building with gcc-15: 

sed -i '/proc_func)()/s/()/(FILE*, FILE*, void*)/' filter/foomatic-rip/process.h

Next, fix a security vulnerability: 

patch -Np1 -i ../cups-filters-2.0.1-security_fix-1.patch

Install CUPS Filters by running the following commands: 

./configure --prefix=/usr    \
            --disable-static \
            --docdir=/usr/share/doc/cups-filters-2.0.1 &&
make

This package does not come with a functional test suite.

Now, as the root user: 

make install

Command Explanations

--disable-static: This switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.
