Compiling GhostScript - Trying to get my HP OfficeJet to work
Boy - I bit off a HUGE chunk here, and I need some help.
I have an HP OfficeJet T45. From looking around, I found that HP has
provided some drivers, but they depend on GhostScript. I don't know exactly
what version of GhostScript I need to have, which makes this more confusing;
but I have GS 5.10 and the driver hook isn't listed when I do a "gs -h".
HP says GS needs to have the hook for the HPIJ driver, and provides a whole
set of instructions on how to complie GS for your system and install the HP
drivers.
I did find the debs for v0.80 of the HP driver, but it appears they depend on
woody, and I'm not ready to go there yet.
Anyway... The website reports that GS 5.50 at least has the hook to the
driver, but of course I can't find a deb package for that version either.
So, I got the gs source for v6.52 (along with the jpeg, zlib and pnp
libraries as requested). I got the compile going, but keep running into this
error and I can't get any farther.

I checked - wchar_t is in fact conflicting, it's a long in one place and a
short in the other. Frankly, I'm stumped. Here's my relavent library info:
Debian 2.2r5 - potato
gs v6.5.2
hpijos v1.0.2

zlib latest)
