Dear list,

after upgrading to OpenBSD 7.4 (as far as I can tell),
a2ps program stopped working:

;a2ps /home/ruda/mnt/tarkil/SIMUL/acceptance/accept1detE0.ijs  
[/home/ruda/mnt/tarkil/SIMUL/acceptance/accept1detE0.ijs (plain): 2 pages on 1 
sheet]
Usage: a2ps-lpr-wrapper [-d printer] FILE...
a2ps: received SIGPIPE

It seems to me that a2ps-lpr-wrapper expects a FILE argument,
while a2ps (which invokes the wrapper?) does not supply one...

Has anybody else had this issue?
Thanks for comments.

Loosely related: What program do you use to print utf8
encoded text file to a postscipt printer? (Neither a2ps, nor
enscript does it. At this moment I either remove any
diacritics with 'recode -f utf8..flat ...', or open the
file in gedit and print from there. I heard there is
'paps' and 'cedilla' programs, but neither is in ports
and I failed to compile the former as cloned from github.)
