Install <application>libpaper</application> by running the following
commands:

--sysconfdir=/etc \

<para>
The /etc/libpaper.d directory contains scripts to run after the paper
size has been changed. This package puts no scripts here, but other
packages may. If the fcron package has not been installed, create the
<command>run-parts</command> script as shown in the <xref
linkend='run-parts'/> section.
