The following reply was made to PR ports/167441; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Gerhard Strangar <g.s@arcor.de> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, peterjeremy@acm.org Cc: Subject: Re: ports/167441: editors/libreoffice - Unable to print Date: Tue, 19 Feb 2013 13:58:02 +0100 Hello, I just tried to upgrade to LibreOffice 3.6.5_2 and this problem showed up again. I'm not running CUPS, my "make config" options for LibreOffice are GTK2, MERGELIBS and SVG, nothing else. It compiled and installed without any problems, but it tells me there were no printers available and I cannot even print to a file, I don't get any error message for printing to a file, I just don't get that file. When I truss the LibreOffice start, there are no CUPS strings showing up. I also tried adding --with-ppds to the Makefile in the no CUPS part, but that didn't change anything. /usr/local/lib/libreoffice/share/psprint/driver/ does exist and it contains SGENPRT.PS and SGENT42.PS, a truss -f however, does not show access to this directory. I then tried compiling with CUPS support and with ppds and - BINGO, then it works. I don't know what CUPS is required for, but for some reason LibreOffice doesn't want to print without it.
