i'm trying to get cups running with my hp laserjet 2200D. i have sucessfully installed cups. when i attempt to create a new printer it doesn't have the 2200D driver. i'm under the impression that i need to install 'foomatic' but when i do the foomatic-db package fails to emerge---i have the foomatic-db-engine and foomatic-filters already installed. following is the snippet related to emerging net-print/foomatic-db

Code:

# emerge -v -p net-print/foomatic-db

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N   ] net-print/foomatic-db-20030716  +cups +ppds

# emerge net-print/foomatic-db

[...]

Generating Foomatic PPD files ...

Storing files in directory /var/tmp/portage/foomatic-db-20030716/work/foomatic/foomatic-db-engine-3.0.0/ppd.
Could not run "foomatic-perl-data"! at /var/tmp/portage/foomatic-db-20030716/work/foomatic/foomatic-db-engine-3.0.0/lib//Foomatic/DB.pm line 137.
make: *** [filters-ppds] Error 1

!!! ERROR: net-print/foomatic-db-20030716 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 48, Exitcode 2
!!! (no error message)


any help would be greatly appreciated...

thanks!
