Enhancements to PKGBUILD, but in CUPS I get a filter failed error, no idea how to fix this:

Since you only install into /opt/, CUPS does not find the printer driver when adding a new printer via the web interface.

Can you please install to the locations where CUPS expect the files?

Regards!

Ahoj!, thanks for the package.

Dependency lib32-glibc needs to be added:

brother-dcp7055w-cups-bin E: Dependency lib32-glibc detected and not included (libraries ['usr/lib32/libc.so.6'] needed in files ['opt/brother/Printers/DCP7055W/cupswrapper/brcupsconfig4'])

Can you also add

• provides=("brother-dcp7055w-cups=${pkgver}"),
• conflicts=('brother-dcp7055w-cups')

please?

Also, the license identifier needs to be made SPDX compliant, and you must install a license into /usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}/:

brother-dcp7055w-cups-bin E: EULA is not a valid SPDX license identifier. See https://spdx.org/licenses/ for valid identifiers, or prefix the identifier with 'LicenseRef-', if it is custom.

Maybe some of those comments also apply to your other package, brother-dcp7055w-lpr-bin.

Regards and thanks for the package!

How to use this? I installed cups, enabled cups.socket, installed drivers and installed system-config-printer. Printer doesn't show up in system-config-printer.
