libusb is the cause of the problem.
Thanks, Dirk. My ports, src, kernel, lib, are completely up to date
on all my 7.2 machines. Daily, I' ve been cvsuping and rebuilding all
for the last week.
cvsup - make buildworld - make buildkernel - make installkernel -
make installworld - portmaster -a
This is in addition to having rebuild all cups related ports multiple
times. If I need to do something to "use libusb", I haven't. maybe
that is the problem.
I should have thought of this sooner.
The best and final (I think) solution is to add --disable-libusb to the
configuration options in cups-base/Makefile and rebuild.
I tested this on 8.0 rather than 7, and didn't try printing, but I
verified that the USB backend sees the traditional /dev/ulptx
device rather than using libusb, so I think it will work for you.
That certainly make sense to me. I am now recompiling without libusb.
I'll let the list know as soon as I can.
Thanks,
ed
