The printmgr(1M) uses a cache of the foomatic PPD files. This

cache is built here, rather than on install, for performance

reasons. 

Two files are created by the cache target:

	1. ppdunsupported : this is the list of PPD files

	that are not supported by Sun. The reason for the

	lack of support is that Solaris does not deliver

	the printer drivers required by the PPD files.

	These files are delivered, but are not part of the

	printmgr database and will not show up in the printmgr

	menus. The "ppdunsupported" file is not delivered to 

	the customer.

	2. SUNWfoomatic.cache : this is the cache file used

	by the printmgr. It uses the above file, ppdunsupported,

	to create the PPD cache. This file is installed and 

	delivered to the customer. 

HOWTO build:

	0. Pull down a new version of foomatic-filters-ppd. 

	1. Check licenses on all the PPD files. Any files with

	copyrights that do not have a valid license are put in 

	the "nolicense" file and not delivered.  The Makefile 

	adds it to the unsupported list.  Be sure that the 

	files in "nolicencse" are not in the prototype_com file in 

	pkgdefs/SUNWfppd.

	2. Modify the Makefile.sfw and other files with

	the new version (VER).

	3. make -f Makefile.sfw install

	4. Check in SUNWfoomatic.cache

note: the file ppdsupported is created for convenience only.

Currently, it is not used.
