All,

I have been attempting to install Roy Harrington's QuadTone RIP 
software on Redhat Linux, and I need your help!  I think I have 
everything right expect that CUPS doesn't seem to be installed 
correctly and so quadtone RIP won't build.

I have followed the instructions in QTR-LinuxNotes.pdf.  I have 
downloaded and installed webmin, quad.convs per instructions.  My 
Redhat installation (9.0) seems to have CUPS installed as I was able 
to do a test print on my Epson 2200 and the test page said it was 
using CUPS 1.1.x.

I have gotten to the point of running the make script (install-
quadtonerip).  The script compiled all the modules but had shell 
errors with cups-config:
"/bin/sh: line 1: cups-config: command not found"
Make still continued but failed when the linker tried to pull in the 
cups library:
"/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcups"

This seems like I do not have the development version of CUPS 
installed, even if I can print OK.  So I downloaded cups-devel-
1.1.20-1.i386.rpm and installed it using rpm.  That looked like it 
worked though it gave a warning that some files conflicted with the 
earlier installed version of CUPS files.  

I then re-ran the install-quadtonerip script (after doing a make 
clean on both src directories).  Still no dice, same errors.  I did 
a find for "libcups.a" as well as "cups-config" and neither could be 
found. (though I do have the shared lib libcups.so.2).  I also did a 
locate cups-conf and it does not find the file in /usr/bin as it is 
supposed to be.

I'm out of ideas but I think I'm pretty close to getting this 
built.  Help please!

Thanks
