HI, I’m running NetBSD 9 and I can build from source.
I tried to build cups-base but it did not end well, I got errors and tried to fix them , for example , it could not find liquuid but I made rather a mess of things. So, I’m starting again with a fresh install of NetBSD 9.0 and I’ll use pksrc to build cups-base. Am I right in assuming that I should not mix pkgin with pkgsrc?

I decided to use CUPS to manage printing. The printer is on my local network and has a fixed IP address.
I installed cups and hplip, enabled and started cupsd, and added the HP OfficeJet 8610 to CUPS.
When I print the test page the job is visible in the queue and completes but nothing prints. If I look in /var/log/cups/error_log I see the following error.
E [14/Oct/2020:20:06:47 +1100] [CGI] Unable to execute ippfind utility: No such file or directory
I checked the wiki and followed the instructions setting up CUPS and as far as I can tell I've done everything right. I also see chatter on some Linux forums describing a similar problem.
Is there another package I'm supposed to install to make this work?
[off-list]I just committed the movement of the comma, so cups-base-2.3.3nb7 shouldcome with ippfind by default. Not sure if it will fix your printing,but at least that error would disappear. (ippfind needs mdnsd=YES in/etc/rc.conf in that case)Can you build packages from pkgsrc?What version of NetBSD are you running?Cheers,Patrick
