[CentOS] Trying to print...

2018-06-04 Thread m . roth
Well... we've got this poster printer. Been printing for years. There was
an, um, incident at work, and long story short, the .ppd that I had had to
create was lost. I've pretty much recreated it, and cupstestppd only gives
a few warnings... but: I've got it set up in cups on my C 6 server, to go
to the JetDirect socket, but I try to print, and it tries to send the
file, and the next thing I know, cups says the printer's paused, and in
messages I've got a "broken pipe" line.

The printer does its internal cleanings and self-tests fine, and I can
telnet to the printer.

Any thoughts?

I have created an image file that we can test.  If it does what we need,
then we'll get it on the server in the iso dir.

Can you take a look at:
https://people.centos.org/hughesjr/CentOS-7-aarch64-Minimal-1805-01.img.xz

See if that does what you want .. if not let's figure out what we need
to do to get what you want.

I would not call any of this 'supported' .. but the UEFI image is what
we provide and really try to ensure is working .. for large data center
deployment, etc. (that is really what CentOS is, right) .. BUT .. we
would also like to provide images for install on the dev boards as well.

I plan on mirroring what we are currently doing here for x86_64 (for
cloud) on aarch64 as well, maybe this cycle .. certainly by the next
monthly cycle.

http://cloud.centos.org/centos/7/images/

There are already a couple old images there:

http://cloud.centos.org/altarch/7/images/aarch64/

But we should get some 1805 or 1806 images and starting to maintain
those as well (again .. maybe this cycle [end of May updates, released
this week, 1805], or certainly next cycle [end of June updates, released
first week of July, 1806])

The CentOS-Devel mailing list is likely a better place to do this
testing, are you subscribed?

I simply removed the bashrc entries and that was enough to let me install the 
modules system wide.  I will also investigate cpanspec when I get more chance

You might want to build rpms for these perl modules, not so hard with 
cpanspec, eg:

There's lots of info on it on the web. For the definitive answers look
long the local::lib pages on CPAN - basically there are environment
variables you can set to say where things are to be installed.

Also, I think when you first run CPAN one of the questions it asks is
where to install things - if you let CPAN configure itself it defaults
to a local install. You can re-run the CPAN initial config by doing 

  o conf init

at the CPAN prompt.  You may have to clean up your .bashrc as well.

This is probably the most useful link I found
