Thank you for this package!!!! I can use finally my printer!!!!

There, it's updated. Let us know if there's any nonworking behavior - hopefully this is all that's needed to get it to work.

Thanks, TheGoliath

To give you an idea of how extensive the changes are for compiling w/ current CUPS, here's a link to the WIP patch.

Note that the installation will still not compile with this patch, as bjcups.c from cngpij will also need to be modified with similar changes.

So the issues here happen to be a perfect storm: CUPS removed the private IPP header completely from installation, instead enforcing access through the getter & setter methods that are defined for it.

This does mean changing a lot of otherwise decprecated code to use those methods instead - I'm working on a patch all the same.

Build fails thus:

Fails to build now, which is odd since the only change I can see is a switch from md5 sums to sha256sums.

Errors are:
