From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.75 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16-22 i686) Description of problem: The Skipjack beta uses the wrong IJS client (gdevijs.c) with Ghostscript 6.53. You are using a temporary IJS client that came with hpijs 1.0.2 until Ghostscript 6.53 came out. Ghostscript 6.53 comes with it's own IJS client. You also need to upgrade to hpijs 1.0.4. Hpijs 1.0.4 is compatible with Ghostscript 6.53 and matches the foomatic data being used by printconf-gui. Hpijs 1.0.2 will not work with the foomatic data. I have a updated ghostscript.spec which supports hpijs 1.0.4. The spec file creates ghostscript-6.53-5.i386.rpm which I have tested with your printconf-gui on Skipjack. http://hpinkjet.sourceforge.net/ghostscript.spec http://hpinkjet.sourceforge.net/hpijs-1.0.4.tar.bz2 Let me know if you have any questions. -DaveS Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. printconf-gui with hpijs 2. 3. Additional info:
I built this earlier today as ghostscript-6.53-7. Thanks for the report (and your earlier mail).
Actually we will probably back off to ghostscript-6.52, so we will probably also stick with hpijs-1.0.2 for the moment.
Hpijs 1.0.2 will not match the foomatic-1.1-0.20020313.1 database. Hpijs 1.0.4 will. Also, I thought ghostscript-6.53 fixes some security issues.
Regarding 6.53 and security issues: these are the PARANOIDSAFER changes which we already apply as a patch. And the foomatic database: you're right; I only checked that our database didn't have 1.0.4 (looking in the ChangeLog). It looks like 2002-02-20 is when 1.0.3 data went in, so I'll look at backporting any fixes there have been since then into the foomatic data from that date.
Created attachment 52133 [details] Seems like this patch should do it.
Your foomatic-1.1-hpijs-1.0.2.patch does not correct all the differences between hpijs 1.0.2 and hpijs 1.0.3. The hpijs-Quality.xml file is wrong too. But, I am not getting the big picture here. Is there a problem supporting hpijs 1.0.4? Hpijs 1.0.4 fixes many hpijs 1.0.2 bugs. If you want to use gs6.52, it would be easier to just patch the gs6.53 IJS client (gdevijs.c) into gs6.52 and then you can use hpijs 1.0.4. Hpijs 1.0.4 is compatible with the foomatic-1.1-0.20020313.1 database.
I tried but couldn't get it building. I am not familiar enough with ghostscript yet. I am trying for minimal changes at this point.
