Hi,

I recently updated to cups-filters 1.13.4, and it appears that I now
cannot print PDF files. The port is built with the default options.
The logs indicate:

D [27/Mar/2017:17:24:32 +1300] [Job 631] Running command line for

(/usr/local/libexec/cups/filter/pdftops) stopped with status 1.

I am not sure why its complaining that pdftops is not there because
both the filter and the main program are there:
6:27pm# ls -l /usr/local/libexec/cups/filter/pdftops
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  36672 25 Mar 15:05
/usr/local/libexec/cups/filter/pdftops
6:32pm# ls -l /usr/local/bin/pdftops
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  18744  8 Jan 13:43 /usr/local/bin/pdftops*

Is the filter looking for pdftops in the wrong place?

6:36pm# strings /usr/local/libexec/cups/filter/pdftops | grep bin.pdftops
/usr/bin/pdftops

Cheers.
