       cups-config - get cups api, compiler, directory, and link information.

SYNOPSIS

       cups-config --api-version
       cups-config --build
       cups-config --cflags
       cups-config --datadir

DESCRIPTION

       The  cups-config command allows application developers to determine the necessary command-line options for the compiler and linker, as well
       as the installation directories for filters, configuration files, and drivers.  All values are reported to the standard output.

OPTIONS

       The cups-config command accepts the following command-line options:

       --api-version
	    Reports the current API version (major.minor).

       --build
	    Reports a system-specific build number.

       --cflags
	    Reports the necessary compiler options.

       --datadir
	    Reports the default CUPS data directory.

       --help
	    Reports the program usage message.

       --image
	    When used with --libs, adds the CUPS imaging library to the list of libraries.

       --ldflags
	    Reports the necessary linker options.

       --libs
	    Reports the necessary libraries to link to.

       --serverbin
	    Reports the default CUPS binary directory, where filters and backends are stored.

       --serverroot
	    Reports the default CUPS configuration file directory.

       --static
	    When used with --libs, reports the static libraries instead of the default (shared) libraries.

       --version
	    Reports the full version number of the CUPS installation (major.minor.patch).

EXAMPLES

       Show the currently installed version of CUPS:

	   cups-config --version

       Compile a simple one-file CUPS filter:

	   cc `cups-config --cflags --ldflags` -o filter filter.c 
	       `cups-config --libs`

CUPS-GENPPDUPDATE(8)					      Gutenprint Manual Pages					      CUPS-GENPPDUPDATE(8)

NAME

       cups-genppdupdate - update CUPS+Gutenprint PPD files

SYNOPSIS

       cups-genppdupdate [-h] [-n] [-N] [-q | -v] [-s ppd-directory] [-s output-directory] [PPD-FILES or QUEUES...]

DESCRIPTION

       cups-genppdupdate  regenerates  the Gutenprint PPD files in use by CUPS, using the PPD files under /usr/share/cups/model/gutenprint as tem-
       plates.	The new PPD file replaces the old PPD file under /etc/cups/ppd, but all the options set in the old PPD will be merged into the new
       PPD, provided that they are still valid in the new file.

       If  no  files or queue names are specified, cups-genppdupdate updates all Gutenprint PPD files in /etc/cups/ppd.  Otherwise, cups-genppdup-
       date updates all files or queues listed on the command line.

       cups-genppdupdate does not update Foomatic PPD files or PPD files from Gimp-Print 4.2 or earlier.

       cups-genppdupdate does not restart cupsd.  cupsd will need manually reloading (or send SIGHUP) once cups-genppdupdate has completed.

OPTIONS

       -h     Show a help message.

       -n     No action.  The program will run, but the old PPD files will not be replaced.

       -q     Quiet mode.  No messages will be issued, apart from errors.

       -v     Verbose mode.  More informative messages will be issued.	Note that extremely verbose output may be turned on by setting $debug=1 in
	      the source, but this output will not be of use to the average user.

       -s ppd-directory
	      Use ppd-directory as the base directory to read PPD files from.  By default, the base directory is /usr/share/cups/model/gutenprint.
	      Under this directory, the PPD files are located in subdirectories according to language code and territory.

       -o output-directory
	      Place updated PPD files in output-directory.  By default, this is the same as the input directory.

       -N     Reset all options to their defaults (do not merge options from the current PPD file)
