That he was,and I appreciated it. But when I sent additional logs after
having built and installed a newer version of something he suggested, no
further reply's. And since installing the new ghostscript 9.26,
overwriting the deb install just now, I still cannot clean, and a
contrast=20,red=20 still has zero effect on a test page. Something in
the data path is stripping off all the knobs we can adjust to make it
look good. If I had a path description, I could probably trace it down
myself. Cups itself was also replaced with 2.3b7, again with no effect.
No it wasn't, I just checked the build tree and see:
Linking ippserver...
/usr/bin/ld: ../cups/libcups.a(thread.o): undefined reference to
symbol 'clock_gettime@@GLIBC_2.2'
/usr/bin/ld: note: 'clock_gettime@@GLIBC_2.2' is defined in
DSO /lib/i386-linux-gnu/librt.so.1 so try adding it to the linker
command line
/lib/i386-linux-gnu/librt.so.1: could not read symbols: Invalid operation
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [ippserver] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 1
Thats in fact librtai, and the .dev is installed. ld reports there are no
symbols in it. And the dev version doesn't seem to have an include for
that function.
So cups is still 1.5.3.

Thats being pushy, but I did expect to get a reply with the next step to
check and see if it wasn't fixed by his first suggestions. Since my main
interest is LCNC, and non of the 64 bit installs can do more than
emulate, I'll check with the guys and see if they have a jessie install
iso for amd64 stuff.
