   There were also, of course, files created in the working dir for make &   
   install, one of which was rastertocarps.c which said CUPS driver for   
   Canon CARPS printers before the code.   
      
   Another creation in the working dir was a dir full of specific .ppd   
   files for 14 different postscript printers.  I wasn't able to figure out   
   what 'became of' that in the filesystem of the live LM.  I found a .ppd   
   dir there, but it didn't have any of the content from the above working dir.
