A NOTE has been added to this issue. ====================================================================== https://www.opencsw.org/mantis/view.php?id=4532 ====================================================================== Reported By: phil Assigned To: ====================================================================== Project: cupsclient Issue ID: 4532 Category: packaging Reproducibility: always Severity: major Priority: normal Status: new ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 2010-08-27 19:18 CEST Last Modified: 2011-05-12 20:21 CEST ====================================================================== Summary: cupsclient lacks docs Description: I decided to try switching to using "cupsclient" for printing. Installed the package... and was left scratching my head. the postinstall mentions "/etc/opt/csw/cups". Which only contents "client.conf.CSW". Which mentioned "man client.conf". Which is similarly unhelpful. Looked in /opt/csw/share/doc/cupsclient. Only thing there is the license file.
Please add some level of documentation to address, "here's what you do if you actually want to print to something". What would be helpful, would be two things: 1. mention of "how do I set up a printer"? 2. mention of "what do I do instead of the usual 'lp' ?" ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (0009038) phil (developer) - 2011-05-12 20:21 https://www.opencsw.org/mantis/view.php?id=4532#c9038 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Maciej, oopsie on missing the CSWcupsdoc package. So yes, a file saying "Please see that" would help. However... cups is supposed to be (the wonderful new, easy printing system that doesnt need manuals). As such, seems like it would be rather nice to have some very brief "quickstart" file. I'm imagining it would only be a few lines? ie: "cups is administered via local web server ONLY. Go to port xyz with your browser and follow the directions ...." ? _______________________________________________ bug-notifications mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-notifications
