           Summary: Review Request: SpliX - Driver for QPDL/SPL2 printers
                    (Samsung and several Xerox printers)

Spec URL: http://jpopelka.fedorapeople.org/splix.spec
SRPM URL: http://jpopelka.fedorapeople.org/splix-2.0.1-0.1.20111118svn.src.rpm
Description:

SpliX is GPLv2 licensed set of drivers usable by all printer devices which
understand the QPDL (Quick Page Description Language) also known as SPL2
(Samsung Printer Language) language. It covers several Samsung, Xerox and Dell
printers.

Earlier it was possible to get RPM from
http://www.openprinting.org/download/printdriver/components/lsb3.2/contrib/RPMS/x86_64/openprinting-splix-2.0.0-2lsb3.2.x86_64.rpm
or build from source
http://sourceforge.net/projects/splix/files/splix/2.0.0/splix-2.0.0.tar.bz2/download

I decided to create Fedora package because the openprinting repo has been down
for quite a long time and the 2.0.0 source is not possible to build with
gcc-4.6 as shipped with Fedora-16 so there's no easy way for Fedora users how
to get SpliX working. I'm packaging the SVN nightly snapshot that has the gcc
compilation problem fixed.
