Bug Description
Binary package hint: brother-
OS: Ubuntu
Version: 8.04
Architecture: 64 bit
Affected package: brother-
Package version: 2.0.1-2-0ubuntu3
Hardware type: All-In-One b/w laser printer, scanner
Model: Brother DCP-7025
I belatedly installed the debian package brother-
After choosing the alternative driver from Brother I tried to print a test page but nothing happens. I then had a look at the error_log with the command:
$> sudo tail -f /var/log/
The error_log says that it cannot find the file "/usr/Brother/
The second problem incurred due to the missing shared object file "/usr/lib/
$> sudo ln -s /usr/lib/
This solved the last problem and I am able to print any documents now.
The Brother Printer FAQ states in the following entry:
<quote>
I am using the 64 bit version of Ubuntu 7.10. I have installed the drivers, but I am still unable to print.
The reference directories for 32 bit applications have changed on the 64 bit version of Ubuntu7.10.
If your version shows the following files after the installation, you will have to make symbolic links for them under /usr/lib32.
Example of the command (Issue the command as a superuser);
ln -s /usr/lib/

Thanks for your bug report! I see here two different bug described in your bug description.
Bug #1 : missing /usr/Brother/ inf/brPrintList , the package from Brother does not even contains that file! Can you remove /usr/Brother/ inf/brPrintList to see if you can use your printer even without it? If yes, I suggest to ignore that issue since it might be more harmful to play with this since this file also exists with different content in -laser package.
Bug #2 : Missing /usr/lib32* , thank you so much, I'll see want I can do.
