The cups-config command allows application developers to determine the necessary command-line options for the compiler and linker, as well as the installation directories for filters, configuration files, and drivers. All values are reported to the standard output. Note: This command is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of CUPS. The pkg-config(1) command should be used instead.
The
cups-config command accepts the following
command-line options:
−−api-version
Reports the current API version (major.minor).
−−build
Reports a system-specific build number.
−−cflags
Reports the necessary compiler options.
−−datadir
Reports the default CUPS data directory.
−−help
Reports the program usage message.
−−ldflags
Reports the necessary linker options.
−−libs
Reports the necessary libraries to link to.
−−serverbin
Reports the default CUPS binary directory, where filters and backends are stored.
−−serverroot
Reports the default CUPS configuration file directory.
−−static
When used with −−libs, reports the static libraries instead of the default (shared) libraries.
−−version
Reports the full version number of the CUPS installation (major.minor.patch).
Show the currently installed version of CUPS:
cups-config −−version
Compile a simple one-file CUPS filter:

compatibility:
