30286ebcc1 updated glibc to 2.32.
This removed the deprecated <sys/sysctl.h> header, which caused a build
error on this package.
Since this header doesn't seem to be required it was removed with this
patch.
Some Ricoh printers use the proprietary sag-gdi format
and can't handle other, more common formats.
This commit brings a filter for cups
that generates the sag-gdi format.
The latest version 0.1 is dated 2011. So updates are unlikely.
The filter is written for Python 2.
To avoid new reverse dependencies on Python 2,
we employ a patch from Debian
that migrates the code to Python 3.
The README file just states "GPL" as license.
It is unclear whether that refers to the first version or
to the "current version" in the year of the copyright
(would be 3), and whether newer versions would be included.
The commit picks the nixpkgs `free` license
as this seems to be the most general license
covering all possible GPL combinations.
At least, `free` should permit Hydra to build the package.
The source tarball brings pdd files, but also a
drv file that can be used to generate those ppd files.
Since we prefer building from source,
we call cups' `ppdc` to build ppd files from the drv file.
Here is a documentation of the sag-gdi format:

Package Brother HL1210W Cups printer driver. Based on cups-brother-hl1110.
Installed PPD can be found at /var/lib/cups/path/lib/cups/filter/brother-HL1210W-cups-en.ppd
This adds the printer driver for the Brother MFCL3770CDW.
It combines the cups-wrapper and the driver in one file which allows
sharing common variables and making it less error-prone than the other
Brother drivers in repository.
I volunteer for maintaining this one as long as I've got the model
around.
Whenever we create scripts that are installed to $out, we must use runtimeShell
in order to get the shell that can be executed on the machine we create the
package for. This is relevant for cross-compiling. The only use case for
stdenv.shell are scripts that are executed as part of the build system.
Usages in checkPhase are borderline however to decrease the likelyhood
of people copying the wrong examples, I decided to use runtimeShell as well.
