Re 1/2: still fax related files are installed but not packaged up.
Then what you should have done was simply remove or fix the "buildreq"
for netpbm. Figure out what provides "giftopnm", for instance, on your
platform.
3 Tell configure NOT to use caching by changing the './configure'
line to: --cache-file=/dev/null
...
Re 3: the cache mechanism in configure is broken as far as I'm
concerned. Checking all kind of options that *should* not change is
fine but PLEASE make it collapse multiple spaces into single space
before comparing old and new. It errors out on the fact that '-O2
-pipe' is different than '-O2 -pipe'.
It doesn't error out on any platform that I've tested... What release of
autoconf/automake are you using? If it's a bug, it's probably a bug in
one of those packages.
4 Tell configure to look for the mime.types file in /etc/cups:
--enable-mime=/etc/cups/mime.types
...
Re 4: On my system (Mandriva 2006.0) the only mime.types file I could
find was in /etc/cups.
It's provided by "mailcap" on Red Hat systems, at least. I'm not sure
if the format of the file provided by cups is supported by Courier.
