Summary: in former times the hpijs/ijs driver was included in the ghostscript-gnu and ghostscript-afpl port. Now it became a separate port. Apsfilter port resides on CD-ROM#1 to give people a complete printing solution based on ghostscript-gnu-nox11. But this port SHOULD include all printer driver we know of ... Now is the situation, that the ijs printer drivers (from HP) and possibly some others (I found another "spinned off" message in cvs log of ghostscript ports Makefile) have been made availabe separately for to me unknown reason. Solutions: a) bring ijs and all other drivers back to gs b) add an additionally RUN dependency into apsfilter port and put the missing packages also on FreeBSD CD-ROM #1 Andreas /// -- Andreas Klemm /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ http://www.64bits.de < Powered by FreeBSD > http://www.apsfilter.org/ \ www.FreeBSD.org / http://people.FreeBSD.ORG/~andreas \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
