Is anyone using the cups-pdf system from http://cip.physik.uni-wuerzburg.de/~vrbehr/cups-pdf/? It's a virtual printer that can produce PDF files as output.

I tried to install the FC4 cups-pdf-2.0.0-0.1.fc4.remi.i386.rpm linked from that page, but the post-install scriptlet fails. The scriptlet contains:

postinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
if [ "$1" -eq "1" ]; then
        /etc/init.d/cups restart
        (       /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p Cups-PDF -v cups-pdf:/ -m PostscriptColor.ppd -E &&
                echo Cups-PDF printer created
        ) || true
fi

The lpadmin command fails with:

	lpadmin: add-printer (set device) failed: client-error-not-possible

and the "printer" is not available, nor is there an option to install a "Virtual Printer (PDF printer)" in either system-config-printer or the CUPS admin page.

Any hints appreciated.
