Description (last modified by ken@…)

I'll take a look at this - will take me a few days to review *what* I need to rebuild for a safe upgrade(past experience suggests the whole printing stack), and to then update my own scripts.

Summary: gutenprint-5.2.8gutenprint-5.2.9

Deferring - it turns out that 5.2.9 has been out for some time. I won't be building that until my next desktop build (for me, 5.2.8 seems ok). Meanwhile, I've noted the following with 5.2.8: the sed is not needed, and make check runs quickly (less than 19 minutes on my phenom, 1 core maxed out - it won't use more than 1 core).

However, 1 of 2 tests fails - for 75/43550 PPDs there an error:

**FAIL**  Multiple occurrences of option MediaType choice name Transparency

Looking at the gimp-print-devel archives, I'm not sure if this matters or not. All the affected PPDs are for bjc PIXMA printers (I think those are newly added in this version), I only have an epson.

Passing back to blfs-book in case anyone wants to take it.

Regarding gutenprint-5.2.9, I can confirm that it is no longer necessary to run the sed command that adds '#include <stdio.h>' to various C files. The sed command that fixes the documentation directory still seems to be necessary. However "make check" still takes extremely long to run - well over 2 days on my system (SBU = 170 seconds).

Thanks for the comment on make check - I suppose 5.2.8 tests were abbreviated because of the errors.
