Install libcupsfilters by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr \ --disable-static \ --docdir=/usr/share/doc/libcupsfilters-2.0.0 && make

--with-test-font-path=
: If you wish to run
the tests, but you do not have the default VALUE
/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf
font
installed, use this switch to specify where DejaVuSans.ttf
(or perhaps some other text TTF
font - though this is untested) is located.
