A2PS - Can't change Medium

[Jim Arnone]

I am attempting to install the 4.12 version of a2ps on a mandrake linux
system and cannot seem to be able to change the paper medium from A4 to
Letter format. I
have changed the default values in the configure and configure.in files
and scanned every directory with grep looking for instances of the
string A4.  I've setup the /etc configuration files too. Nothing at the
system level seems to work.  Only the command line "--medium=Letter"
makes a difference.  I must be missing something!

Is there any way to make "Letter" the system default for the medium?

Thanks,
