BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Compaq, HP, SGI, and Sun. BSD users should use GNU make (gmake) since BSD
make does not support "include".
- Besides these tools you'll want the JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and ZLIB libraries for
- image support, the CDSA, GNU TLS, or OpenSSL libraries for encryption
- support, the OpenLDAP and OpenSLP libraries for directory services support,
- and either MIT (1.6.3 or higher) or Heimdal Kerberos for Kerberos support.
- CUPS will compile and run without these, however you'll miss out on many of
- the features provided by CUPS.
-
- Also, please note that CUPS does not include the Ghostscript-based
- PostScript filter needed by non-PostScript printers. You *must* download
- GPL Ghostscript separately from the CUPS web site if you want to print
- PostScript files to non-PostScript printers on operating systems other than
- OS X.
