Description:
wine under Arch Linux falls back using LPR instead of using CUPS even though libcups or lib32-libcups is installed. Additional info: * package version(s): wine-4.17 Steps to reproduce: - install base arch system, a working desktop environment, CUPS and wine (important packages: cups, libcups, lib32-libcups, wine, wine_gecko, wine-mono) - configure any CUPS printer (e.g. the PDF printer) - start Notepad in a clean Wine Prefix like so: export WINEARCH=win32 export WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-test rm -rf $WINEPREFIX wine notepad - Now open the printing dialog (Control+P or File/Print...) Under "printer comment" it says: "WINEPS Printer using LPR" What I expected is: "CUPS:PDF" (if the printer name was PDF) The problem with the LPR fallback is that you only get a standard set of paper sizes and not the ones that are actually reported by CUPS. Solution: Make libcups a required dependency. I have rebuilt wine with libcups installed and then everything works as expected. |
