On Machine A, the generated PDF document is spooled to /private/var/spool/cups-pdf/$user in some occasions.
On machine B, it is spooled to /opt/local/var/spool/cups-pdf/$user
There are two cups-pdf.conf files each indicating that the PDF document should spool to Out /opt/local/var/spool/cups-pdf/${USER}
One is located at /private/etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf Another is locaed at /opt/local/etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf.
I don't know which conf file is the proper one to use. I don't know why the same install is configured so differently on the machines.
Also, on machine C, the config file is located at /private/etc/cups/cups- pdf.conf, but output is sent to /opt/local/var/spool/cups-pdf/$user -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/24045#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

In the one that is in the src folder it states: /* User-customizable settings - if unsure leave the default values / they are reasonable for most systems. */ /* location of the configuration file */ #define CPCONFIG "/opt/local/etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf" Under Snow Leopard, this IS the case... However, this does not seem to be the case under Leopard 10.5. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/24045#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

It does install a cups-pdf.conf.dist file. Does the end user need to duplicate and rename this file? -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/24045#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

For this port, the only way to view them currently is to look at the Portfile directly. Use `port file cups-pdf` and read the post-activate phase. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/24045#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

This is what I get:[[BR]]
# cups-pdf.conf -- CUPS Backend Configuration (version 2.5.0, 2009-01-26)[[BR]]
That looks like the right version...
kea:~ esmith$ port provides /private/etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf[[BR]] -bash: port: command not found[[BR]]
PATH issue? How about {{{ /opt/local/bin/port provides /private/etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/24045#comment:10> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
