FOOMATIC-KITLOAD(8)					      System Manager's Manual					       FOOMATIC-KITLOAD(8)

NAME

       foomatic-kitload - installs a data kit into the foomatic database.

SYNOPSIS

       foomatic-kitload [ -k kit-dir] [ -d dest-dir]...

DESCRIPTION

       foomatic-kitload  installs  a  foomatic	data kit into the local data library.  It takes a -k dirname option, where dirname is the toplevel
       directory of a foomatic driver "kit".  A "kit" is a selection of XML source files arranged exactly as in the source/section of  the  master
       database (ie, opt/driver/printer/ subdirs).

       GIMP-Print's foomatic-generator produces exactly such a kit.

       Foomatic-kitload  is moderately paranoid about kits: the kit must contain at least one of printer, driver or opt; the kit must contain only
       files ending in .xml, the kit cannot be the local library itself, etc.  But it does not inspect the contents of the kit files in any way.

   Options
       -k dirname
		 dirname is the toplevel directory of a foomatic driver "kit".

       -d destdir
		 destdir is a prefix to prepend to the install path.  This will not normally be required, but is useful if installing into a  tem-
		 porary `staging area' prior to installing in the final destination.

EXIT STATUS

       foomatic-kitload returns 0 on success, 255 or something else when an error occurs.

AUTHOR

       Manfred Wassmann <manolo@NCC-1701.B.Shuttle.de> for the foomatic project using output from the associated binary.
