Hi

I'm attempting to install foo2zjs in order to make my HP ColorLaserJet 2600n work. The installation seems to work fine, yet once the test scripts run I get the following error:

Code:
# Hotplug Installation Dependencies...
#
      ***
      *** Error: ex is not installed!
      ***
      *** Install vim package(s) for your OS
      ***
make: *** [install-hotplug-test] Error 1


I did indeed remove vim since I'm never using it, yet reinstalling the package didn't help either. Any idea how I get this "ex" utility? Couldn't find any clues so far.

Roman ...

well, ex is provided by app-editors/vim ...

Code:
% which ex
/usr/bin/ex
% equery belongs /usr/bin/ex | tail -1
app-editors/vim-7.3.409

If you re-emerged it it may not show in your path until restarting a shell ... or running 'hash -r' (bash) or 'rehash' (zsh).

HTH ... khay
