Hi, I've updated the package to the latest version 1.04 build 30, and will keep it up to date in the future :) Happy labeling!

Please be aware the dependencies have changed for blabel, and that you need to install perl-net-cups from AUR.

How to fix "CUPS.xs:15:11: fatal error: cupsfilters/image.h: No such file or directory"

If perl-net-cups fails with the fatal error mentioned above, then you need to install cups-filters to fix it. I have already requested the maintainer of perl-net-cups to update his package with this dependency.

How to fix "Can't locate Net/CUPS.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Net::CUPS module)"

If you see this error, then you may need to install perl-net-cups, if you have install perl-net-cups then you probably had perl upgraded but perl-net-cups is still in an old path, the fix then is to first uninstall perl-net-cups and re-install it to place it in the correct path.

blabel stopped printing in my case. It seems to be missing the GD module:

ctive printer: PT-2430PC Can't locate GD.pm in @INC (you may need to install the GD module) (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.30/site_perl /usr/share/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.30/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.30/core_perl /usr/share/perl5/core_perl) at /usr/bin/blabel-print line 9.

@Alpha_Seven Packages installed from the AUR, which have dependencies on other packages in the AUR, does not install those dependencies automatically. You'll have to resolve those yourself. Only packages in the community repo is installed automatically when you install the blabel package. In this case perl-net-cups is an AUR dependency and has to be resolved manually.

@jakeobsen I thought it was blabel's job to resolve that dependency, i. e. to install the package needed. I'll install perl-net-cups manually now. Thanks for your advice!

@Alpha_Seven it seems that you have a missing dependency, you need to install the AUR package perl-net-cups as it's a new dependency for blabel.

Great tool, which I've been using for many years. I hope, this is the right place for my request.

Today my Manjaro machine wants to update blabel and pygtk packages (nothing else). The build process fails with:
