The symlink is there in the manifest. $ rpm -qlv foomatic-filters drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Mar 14 15:04 /etc/foomatic -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1508 Mar 14 15:04 /etc/foomatic/filter.conf -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 106032 Mar 14 15:04 /usr/bin/foomatic-rip lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Mar 14 15:04 /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip -> ../../../bin/foomatic-rip drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Mar 14 15:04 /usr/share/doc/foomatic-filters-4.0.7 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Mar 14 15:04 /usr/share/doc/foomatic-filters-4.0.7/foomatic-filters-4.0.7 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 18009 Feb 18 12:30 /usr/share/doc/foomatic-filters-4.0.7/foomatic-filters-4.0.7/COPYING -r--r--r-- 1 root root 3664 Mar 14 15:04 /usr/share/man/man1/foomatic-rip.1.gz On my freshly installed Fedora 15 system here, I have that symlink. |
DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM: The HPIJS (''Brother HL-2030 Foomatic/hpijs-pcl5e') and Foomatic ('Brother HL-2030 Foomatic/hl1250') drivers for my Brother HL-2030 printer did not work until I created the following symlink: su -c 'ln -s /usr/bin/foomatic-rip /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip' Before, I always got this error message in '/var/log/cups/error_log': E [07/Jun/2011:15:49:33 +0200] Unable to execute /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip: No such file or directory E [07/Jun/2011:15:49:33 +0200] [Job 94] Unable to start filter "foomatic-rip" - No such file or directory. E [07/Jun/2011:15:49:33 +0200] [Job 94] Stopping job because the scheduler could not execute a filter. This is a bug in 'foomatic-filters' package because the symlink should be created automatically when installing the package. VERSION-RELEASE NUMBER OF SELECTED COMPONENT (IF APPLICABLE): foomatic-filters-4.0.7-2.fc15.i686 [fedora]
