a2ps package

I can't seem to find the a2ps package for arm6.
Since I can't get the abs to work (doesn't download) and can't find the sources... Is it possible to create the package? Thank you.

It is.
But first try this
Edit /etc/abs.conf
Put an exclamation (!) before multilib
Now this command
abs core
That will kick it into life
Now just abs

Hi, thanks for responding. With "it is", do you mean it should be there? I only found the armv5 and armv7 packages (surprisingly)

I'll try your tip about the abs when I'm at home.

I see a2ps 4.14-2 has built for v5 and v7, but hopefully that will give you abs sources

a2ps is way behind the times, and has tons of issues with our newer build tools, specifically automake. If you can make it build, let me know.
