[OpenIndiana-discuss] Cups problems

[Udo Grabowski (IMK)]

I've found a few problems with cups

1) it wants system/volatile/cups, but /system/volatile doesn't exist.
    Works if created manually and restart cups/in-lpd and /scheduler.
    Either system/volatile should be created somehow after boot before
    cups starts, or cups should be patched to put that into /var/run/cups;
    but...

2) ... it wants /var/run/cups/, but that doesn't exist. Should be created
    when it installs.

3) It complains about a missing ColorManager:
    "The name org.freedesktop.ColorManager was not provided by any .service
    files" which relates to a missing gnome-colord manager (because it's
    mate here...), so it can't read icc-Profiles for the printer. Don't know
    if that affects color-printing somehow.
