From eaa62fa391e70fec75ec75f802c16e78b0adfa81 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yarny0 <41838844+Yarny0@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Wed, 31 Mar 2021 20:49:14 +0200 Subject: rastertosag-gdi (cups driver): init at 0.1 Some Ricoh printers use the proprietary sag-gdi format and can't handle other, more common formats. This commit brings a filter for cups that generates the sag-gdi format. The latest version 0.1 is dated 2011. So updates are unlikely. The filter is written for Python 2. To avoid new reverse dependencies on Python 2, we employ a patch from Debian that migrates the code to Python 3. The README file just states "GPL" as license. It is unclear whether that refers to the first version or to the "current version" in the year of the copyright (would be 3), and whether newer versions would be included. The commit picks the nixpkgs `free` license as this seems to be the most general license covering all possible GPL combinations. At least, `free` should permit Hydra to build the package. The source tarball brings pdd files, but also a drv file that can be used to generate those ppd files. Since we prefer building from source, we call cups' `ppdc` to build ppd files from the drv file. Here is a documentation of the sag-gdi format: https://www.undocprint.org/formats/page_description_languages/sagem-gdi --- .../drivers/cups-drv-rastertosag-gdi/default.nix | 53 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 53 insertions(+) create mode 100644 pkgs/misc/cups/drivers/cups-drv-rastertosag-gdi/default.nix (limited to 'pkgs/misc') diff --git a/pkgs/misc/cups/drivers/cups-drv-rastertosag-gdi/default.nix b/pkgs/misc/cups/drivers/cups-drv-rastertosag-gdi/default.nix new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..d4914365545 --- /dev/null +++ b/pkgs/misc/cups/drivers/cups-drv-rastertosag-gdi/default.nix @@ -0,0 +1,53 @@ +{ lib +, fetchzip +, fetchpatch +, cups +, python3Packages +}: + +python3Packages.buildPythonApplication rec { + pname = "rastertosag-gdi"; + version = "0.1"; + src = fetchzip { + url = "https://www.openprinting.org/download/printing/${pname}/${pname}-${version}.tar.gz"; + sha256 = "1ldplpv497j8vhw24sksg3fiw8c5pqr0wajajh7p5xpvb6zlcmvw"; + }; + patches = [ + # port to python 3 + ( fetchpatch { + url = "https://sources.debian.org/data/main/r/${pname}/0.1-7/debian/patches/0001-${pname}-python3.patch"; + sha256 = "1l3xbrs67025595k9ba5794q3s74anizpbxwsshcfhmbrzd9h8hg"; + }) + ]; + format = "other"; + nativeBuildInputs = [ (lib.getBin cups) ]; + # The source image also brings pre-built ppd files, + # be we prefer to generate from source where possible, so + # the following line generates ppd files from the drv file. + postBuild = '' + ppdc -v -d . -I "${cups}/share/cups/ppdc" rastertosag-gdi.drv + ''; + installPhase = '' + runHook preInstall + install -vDm 0644 -t "${placeholder "out"}/share/cups/model/rastertosag-gdi/" *.ppd + install -vDm 0755 -t "${placeholder "out"}/bin/" rastertosag-gdi + install -vd "${placeholder "out"}/lib/cups/filter/" + ln -vst "${placeholder "out"}/lib/cups/filter/" "${placeholder "out"}/bin/rastertosag-gdi" + runHook postInstall + ''; + meta = { + description = "CUPS driver for Ricoh Aficio SP 1000S and SP 1100S printers"; + downloadPage = "https://www.openprinting.org/download/printing/rastertosag-gdi/"; + homepage = "https://www.openprinting.org/driver/rastertosag-gdi/"; + license = lib.licenses.free; # just "GPL", according to README + maintainers = [ lib.maintainers.yarny ]; + longDescription = '' + This package brings CUPS raster filter + for Ricoh Aficio SP 1000S and SP 1100S. + In contrast to other Ricoh laser printers, + they use the proprietary SAG-GDI raster format by + Sagem Communication and do not understand PCL or PostScript. + Therefore they do not work with Ricoh's PPD files. + ''; + }; +} -- cgit 1.4.1
