hpijs, foomatic-rip, and CUPS

[Anthony Agelastos]

Hello,

I cannot get hpijs to install. The full install log of it is attached  
to this email with a small snippet towards the bottom of this  
message. Does anyone have any ideas/ suggestions? I am running  
FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE with the latest CUPS infrastructure.

For some time, I have been having issues with my printer (hp LaserJet  
1160Le) ever since the CUPS update to 1.2.0. The latest problem I  
have been having was with foomatic-rip (I would get the error message  
"/usr/local/libexec/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed"). So, per E.J.  
Cerejo's suggestion, I uninstalled and reinstalled my entire printing  
infrastructure (this was to make sure that there were no oddities  
with the CUPS and gnutls upgrade). Everything managed to install  
_except_ hpijs. Without hpijs installed, I have no foomatic-rip file  
in that folder. Ergo, hpijs is my number one chance for fixing this  
issue. It also happens to be the recommended driver for my printer on  
www.linuxprinting.org. I installed hplip to see if that would work  
(since it shows support for the printer on their site), however my  
printer does not show up in any of the drop-down menus.

Thank you so much for your assistance with this.
