Sounds to me that you don't have the C compiler installed. When you install
QTR you are actually programming the machine and it need the C compiler to
do so. Go to your installation media or to a mirror site and install the C
compiler. You will also need to install the cups-devel package so that
cups-config is available.
Once you get those two steps done QTR should install.

Subject: [Digital BW] problems building quadtone rip on Linux; CUPS
library
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
