On sparc for me concerning ghostscript & lprng:

ghostscript-7.05.6-r2 seems OK; I can't speak to '-r1'

Builds fine, and the utilities 'lpr' 'lpq' 'lpc' seem OK. However,
1. Permissions on /var/spool/lpd as installed are such that no user may
queue anything;
2. Once that is corrected, lpd won't print for me; my printcap in
relevant part reads:
===========================
.common:
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P
:sh:mx=0:mc=0
lp|hp:tc=.common:lp=192.168.1.4%9100 \
:filter=/usr/local/libexec/filters/ifhp
:ifhp=model=hp4simx
============================
The test is pretty simple:
1. Fix printcap to be as above;
2. cd /etc/init.d
3. ./LPRng stop ### Stop locally grown daemon
4. ./lprng start ### And start up the new one
5. lpc (to make sure everything is up & enabled & started & whatever
else)
6. a2ps -o lprng.ps lprng
7. lpr -B lprng.ps
And watch: First, "no permissions" with /var/spool/lpd/lp
And then, lpstat -> "No server enabled"
This works fine with locally built lprng-3.8.10, and it seems to be
a problem with the configuration as build for 3.8.21. Putting
force_localhost@
(or default force_localhost@) in the "/etc/lprng/lpd.conf" file does not
cure anything.
Since my locally built lprng-3.8.10 works fine on any system I have put it
on, I am just going to say that lprng-3.8.21 might be OK, but it certainly
doesn't work "out of the box." If anyone will tell how to fix the
configuration problem, I'll give 3.8.21 a workout, since I do a lot on
network printing (on the printer described above) anyway.
(By the way, I could not use lprng at all without the 'ifhp' filter; have
you ever considered adding it to GenToo?)
