Installed lpr for printing

Hi

When I want to print from my snap install it fails with:

Caused by: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program “/usr/bin/lpr”: error=2, No such file or directory

I have installed lpr in the $SNAP/usr/bin/lpr.

But I still get the above exception.

Here is my yaml:

name: highlighterpdf

       plugin: dump

       build-packages:
           - openjdk-11-jdk
           
       
       stage-packages:
           - unzip
           - openjdk-11-jdk
           - lpr

As you can see I have lpr in the stage-packages.

you probably want a layout here (IIRC that was discussed before in another thread about the same snap)
