option in ghostscript-esp, although there it was on by default.
Here it is off by default, which is more in keeping with how the "cups" option
is generally used - it is usually off by default, and a CUPS user would
usually add "cups" to the global options.
doesn't currently pull in CUPS itself. Generally that means the
package builds without CUPS support. However, if you are
using Pkgsrc on a system with CUPS installed via some other means (E.g.
Linux with another packaging system, or even a second Pkgsrc root probably)
then things can go wrong.
I solve this case here by explicitly disabling CUPS support. For
normal cases this should mean "No change", but in exotic cases it fixes
the build and install.
Of course, there may be value in using the CUPS support, but it isn't clear
whether the right way to do that is to add a "cups" package option or to
have a second ghostscript-cups package that CUPS depends on - it kind of
looks like the latter is closer to correct at first glance.

of an emulated operating system. Instead of proliferating things like
SUSE_VERSION_REQD, NETBSD_VERSION_REQD, SOLARIS_VERSION_REQD, etc., a
package can say:
EMUL_REQD= suse>=9.1 netbsd>=2.0 solaris>=10
all in one, succinct line.
CUPS 1.2.12 fixes several file typing issues, a bad error message in the
scheduler, a web interface setting problem, and a bug in the PHP language
binding. It also includes an updated Italian translation. Changes include:
* The PHP cups_print_file() function crashed if the options array
contained non-string option values
* The image/tiff file matching rule incorrectly identified some text files
as TIFF files
* The filter(7) man page incorrectly documented the "PAGE: total #-pages"
message
* PCL text files were mis-identified as HP-GL/2 and caused the HP-GL/2
filter to hang
* When printing to a queue with user ACLs, the scheduler incorrectly
returned a quota error instead of a "not allowed to print" error
* cupsaddsmb could get in a loop if no printer drivers were installed
* cupsRasterReadHeader() did not byte-swap the header properly when
compiled with certain versions of GCC.
* The IPP backend did not send the document-format attribute for filtered
jobs
* Some PPD files could cause a crash in ppdOpen2
* The web admin interface incorrectly handled the "share printers" and
"show remote printers" settings
* The scheduler's log messages about AuthClass and AuthGroupName advised
using a replacement directive but had the wrong syntax
* Updated the PostScript/PJL and HP-GL/2 MIME rules to look in the first
4k of the file, not just the first 1k
* Updated the Italian localization
The major milestone of this release is a merge from the ESP Ghostscript
fork, used to support the CUPS printing system. This means that free
operating systems can now ship a single copy of upstream Ghostscript with
their releases. Thanks to Till Kamppeter and Mike Sweet for making this
possible.
This release also includes numerous important bug fixes over the previous
stable versions, as well as improvements to performance, memory footprint,
shading and image handling. We recommend this upgrade to all free users.
While here, add DESTDIR support.
binary-only packages that require binary "emulation" on the native
operating system. Please see pkgsrc/mk/emulator/README for more
details.
* Teach the plist framework to automatically use any existing
PLIST.${EMUL_PLATFORM} as part of the default PLIST_SRC definition.
* Convert all of the binary-only packages in pkgsrc to use the
emulator framework. Most of them have been tested to install and
deinstall correctly. This involves the following cleanup actions:
* Remove use of custom PLIST code and use PLIST.${EMUL_PLATFORM}
more consistently.
* Simplify packages by using default INSTALL and DEINSTALL scripts
instead of custom INSTALL/DEINSTALL code.
* Remove "SUSE_COMPAT32" and "PKG_OPTIONS.suse" from pkgsrc.
Packages only need to state exactly which emulations they support,
and the framework handles any i386-on-x86_64 or sparc-on-sparc64
uses.
* Remove "USE_NATIVE_LINUX" from pkgsrc. The framework will
automatically detect when the package is installing on Linux.
Specific changes to packages include:
* Bump the PKGREVISIONs for all of the suse100* and suse91* packages
due to changes in the +INSTALL/+DEINSTALL scripts used in all
of the packages.
* Remove pkgsrc/emulators/suse_linux, which is unused by any
packages.
* cad/lc -- remove custom code to create the distinfo file for
all supported platforms; just use "emul-fetch" and "emul-distinfo"
instead.
* lang/Cg-compiler -- install the shared libraries under ${EMULDIR}
instead of ${PREFIX}/lib so that compiled programs will find
the shared libraries.
* mail/thunderbird-bin-nightly -- update to latest binary
distributions for supported platforms.
* multimedia/ns-flash -- update Linux version to 9.0.48 as the
older version is no longer available for interactive fetch.
* security/uvscan -- set LD_LIBRARY_PATH explicitly so that
it's not necessary to install library symlinks into
${EMULDIR}/usr/local/lib.
* www/firefox-bin-flash -- update Linux version to 9.0.48 as the
older version is no longer available for interactive fetch.
