cups/gutenprint/ghostscript problem--printing died on upgrade
Hi all, After 2 weeks vacation I updated my Sid system as usual, about one week ago. Since then I have had problems with printing which I have tried to narrow down by upping the logging in CUPS. I have both an hp 1200 and an epson 300 on the machine, and both die most of the time that I am trying to print a document (I can't yet tell what is different about the ones that _do_ print...). Additionally the Gimp no longer has a print choice in its menu. This would seem to be related to the upgrade of gimpprint 4.2.7 to gutenprint 5.something (which I am glad to see, but...). The CUPS log consistently shows a Ghostscript error: daddy:~# grep -A 10 Error /var/log/cups/error_log D [07/Aug/2005:13:58:00 -0700] [Job 1822] ESP Ghostscript 815.00: Error: Font Renderer Plugin ( FreeType ) return code = -1 D [07/Aug/2005:13:58:00 -0700] [Job 1822] FAPIhook NimbusRomNo9L-Regu D [07/Aug/2005:13:58:00 -0700] [Job 1822] FAPIhook is in .loadfont context for the font Font NimbusRomNo9L-Regu.

Ghostscript Problem
I'm hoping someone can tell me how Ghostscript (specifically, gs-aladdin 7.04 (testing)) is supposed to know where the ghostscript fonts are located (i.e., the pathname to the directory where they reside). Is there an environment variable that is supposed to be set to that directory? Also, can someone who has a testing system tell me where the font file n022003l.pfb is located? I.e., what do you get when you do a "find . -name n022003l.pfb -print"? (Note: the final character before the suffix is a lowercase "L", not a numeral "1"). (On my system, the above font file is located under "/usr/lib/ghostscript/fonts", and also under "/usr/lib/grace/fonts/type1". Also under the above [...]/ghostscript/fonts directory, there is a file Fontmap, which is a link to /etc/gs.Fontmap. There is also a Fontmap file under "/usr/share/gs-aladdin/7.04", but there are no "*.pfb" files there.) Any help much appreciated.

Yes, I have the newewst libpaperg installed: Aside from the error I get when opening gziped ps/eps/pdf files, which I presume is a separate problem, all the errors are the same A4: Unknown papersize thing. One thing I noticed, in the gs man page, it lists the valid paper sizes. 'A4' is not on the list, just 'a4'. I looked in some of the ps files and they had 'A4' papersize set. - If this is the problem, what sort of workaround might I beable to do?

Hamm, bo, rex are codenames.
These are "persistent" names that will not change during their life,
while stable, frozen, unstable, Debian-1.2, Debian-1.3 and Debian-2.0
are not persistent and are created and changed according to the "stage"
(maturity) of the development.
Actually "stable" points to bo and unstable to hamm. Later will be
created "frozen" pointing to hamm, and a new codeneme will appear as
"unstable". After the release time, "stable" will point to hamm as well
as "Debian-2.0" and there will be a new "unstable" to work on.
Therefore we currently use codenames to uniquely identify one particular
hierarchy in the ftp site.
I haven't cheched, but I think this {is,should be} explained in the
README which is displayed when you log on the debian directory in the
ftp site.

Every project I have ever worked on had some kind of "cute" code name (Debian code names come from the movie "Toy Story") for internal identification. While this will probably continue to be "confusing" to some users, I don't think this constitutes "something wrong here". The reason this creates "regular" questions is that these are not the names that are publicly assigned to these different releases.

We (the developpers) are working on debian-2.0 (not released yet), and we haven't quite finished with that yet. So, we call it "unstable". But the codename for debian-2.0 will be "hamm".

The current project leader of Debian, Bruce Perens, works for Pixar, the computer company that made the "Toy Story" movie in the US. I think it was marketed by Disney, which means it's probably available ALL OVER the world. Anyway, it's been a debian inside joke now for a while to name upcoming releases with codenames taken from the "Toy Story" movie. I think Debian 1.2 was "rex", 1.3 was "bo" and now the Debian 2.0 development tree is code-named "hamm". It's lead to some confusion because some people use the "hamm" links, some use "unstable", and some use "2.0". They're all the same.

I have used dselect to install ghostview 1.5-13, gs 4.01-2, and gsfonts 4.01-3 on a 1.2 installation which has been partially upgraded (via dselect) to 1.3. When I run ghostscript I get this: Unexpected interpreter error 1. Error object: execute0 Error: /invalidfont in findfont Operand stack: --nostringval-- 1 (Times-Roman) 42980 --nostringval-- (Times-Roman) NimbusRomNo9L-Regu Execution stack: %interp_exit () --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- false --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- false --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- false --nostringval-- --nostringval-- %loop_continue --nostringval-- --nostringva This happens with any .ps file (including /usr/doc/ghostscript.ps).

GhostScript problem
I just installed the ghostscript package, and it's working great, except for this: every postscript document I print ends up with its last line cut off. How can I stop this?
