OK,
So PDF printing seems to need the perl modules Template::Latex or
possibly Template::Plugin::Latex.
This is provided by the Debian package libtemplate-plugin-latex-perl -
but this is not available in squeeze - only wheezy. Also,
unfortunately, it is not available in Debian backports either.
The INSTALL file says to run:
perl Makefile.PL
make install
but on squeeze these just produce errors and fails.
Trying to load the module with:
cpan Template::Latex
also produces lots of fails.
On the positive side - most of LS seems to be working OK now - but the
PDF generation is pretty much crucial to how we like to work. This seems
to be the last problem with running LS on Debian squeeze.
Regards,
Kevin Bailey
