Designing and Packaging Printer and Scanner Drivers
Designing and Packaging Printer and Scanner Drivers OpenPrinting MC on Linux Plumbers 2020 August 28, 2020 Till Kamppeter, OpenPrinting What we had ● Printer drivers – PPD files – Filters, perhaps also backends – All has to be in CUPS-specific directories ● Scanner drivers – Shared libraries with SANE ABI in SANE-specific directories ● Packaging – Binaries were built specific to destination distro and packaged in DEB or RPM packages – For each distro drivers need to be built, packaged, and tested separately – As files need to be in specific directories drivers cannot be installed with CUPS in a Snap or with scanning user applications in Snaps What we want ● Sandboxed packaging – Snaps – Distribution-independent: Install from Snap Store on any distro running snapd – More security: Every package with all its libraries and files in its own sandbox, fine-grained control for communication between packages – All-Snap distributions ● But – You cannot drop driver files into directories of a snapped CUPS or snapped user applications, Snaps do not see the system’s files – Snaps only communicate via IP or D-Bus, not by files ● Also – CUPS is deprecating support for PPD files, working by itself only in driverless IPP mode. The New Architecture ● Printer/Scanner Applications emulating an IPP device – Easily snappable: Communicates only via IP – Multi-function device support, Printing, Scanning, and Fax Out can be done in one Snap/Application – Web admin interface for vendor/device-specific GUI – Behaves like a network printer/scanner/multi-function

It seems like everyone these days is downloading, watching, and sharing videos from video-sharing sites like YouTube, Google Video, MetaCafe, DailyMotion, Veoh, Break, and a ton of other similar sites. Whether you want to watch the video on your iPod while working out, insert it into a PowerPoint presentation to add some spice, or simply download a video before it’s removed, it’s quite essential to know how to download, convert, and play these videos. There are basically two ways to download videos off the Internet and that’s how I’ll split up this post: either via a web app or via a desktop application. Personally, I like the web applications better simply because you don’t have to clutter up and slow down your computer with all kinds of software! UPDATE: MakeUseOf put together an excellent list of the best websites for watching movies, TV shows, documentaries and standups online.

Eng. @ SUSE since 2018, working on Xen, KVM, QEMU, mostly about performance related stuff ● Daily activities ⇒ how and what for I use my workstation ○ Read and send emails (Evolution, git-send-email, stg mail, ...) ○ Write, build & test code (Xen, KVM, Libvirt, QEMU) ○ Work with the Open Build Service (OBS) ○ Browse Web ○ Test OSes in VMs ○ Meetings / Video calls / Online conferences ○ Chat, work and personal ○ Some 3D Printing ○ Occasionally play games ○ Occasional video-editing ○ Maybe scan / print some document 2 ● Can all of the above be done with an immutable OS ? Immutable OS: What ? Either: ● An OS that you cannot modify Or, at least: ● An OS that you will have an hard time modifying What do you mean “modify” ? ● E.g., installing packages ● ⇒ An OS on which you cannot install packages ● ⇒ An OS on which you will have an hard time installing packages 3 Immutable OS: What ?

Because it will stay clean and hard to break ● Does this sound familiar? ○ Let’s install foo, and it’s dependency, libfoobar_1 ○ Let’s install bar (depends from libfoobar_1, we have it already) ○ Actually, let’s add an external repo.
