%general-entities; ]> $LastChangedBy$ $Date$ LPRng-&LPRng-version;.tar LPRng LPRng The LPRng package contains an enhanced, extended and portable implementation of the Berkeley Line PRinter (LPR) print spooler. This is useful for queuing print jobs. Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &LPRng-md5sum; Download size: &LPRng-size; Estimated disk space required: &LPRng-buildsize; Estimated build time: &LPRng-time; LPRng Dependencies Optional , , or , and krb4 Install LPRng by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/lib/lprng \ --sysconfdir=/etc --enable-shared && make Now, as the root user: make install install -v -d -m755 /usr/share/doc/lprng-&LPRng-version; && cp -v -R DOCS/* PrintingCookbook \ /usr/share/doc/lprng-&LPRng-version; /etc/printcap and /etc/lpd/* /etc/printcap /etc/lpd/* There is no generic printcap for all printers. A sample printcap is loaded into the /etc directory which can be of some help. Information is also available at , and the documentation installed in /usr/share/doc/lprng-&LPRng-version;. The init script installed by LPRng is not consistent with other BLFS scripts; therefore, install the /etc/rc.d/init.d/lprng init script included in the package (as the root user): lprng make install-lprng You may also want to remove the lpd script that was installed in /etc/rc.d/init.d.
