Err, in STR "5. Repeat the step 3" should be "5. Repeat the step 2". Sorry for bugspam. Confirmed. This bug seems to be filed against Firefox (probably because it is the most common), but it affects everything that uses that print dialog box. I found it affects claws-mail, which presents the exact same dialog. Our hunch here is also that it is a GTK bug. It affects me on: claws-mail-3.9.2-7.fc19.i686 firefox-26.0-2.fc19.i686 gtk2-2.24.22-2.fc19.i686 For reference, but not terribly useful because this isn't a firefox bug, see mozilla bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=894966 I see this problem with PDF file format too (on Fedora 20): gtk2-2.24.22-2.fc20.x86_64 firefox-31.0-1.fc20.x86_64 Mozilla Firefox 31.0 Interestingly enough, the Print to File works fine if Postscript is chosen as the format (which may be related to this being rather an issue with GTK2). However, in this case the name of the file to write to is not memorised/saved and when printing again only .ps appears in the name field of the Print -> General -> Print to File menu. This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. This appears fixed in F21. It was never fixed in 19. Don't know about F20. But I tried very hard and could not reproduce this bug in F21, so I would mark this as resolved upstream. (In reply to Trevor Cordes from comment #5) > This appears fixed in F21. It was never fixed in 19. Don't know about F20. This is fixed in F20 as well, presumably by <https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/?h=gtk-2-24&id=60189143a4097c615f9cda0dbec2cd48b4eca77d> from <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=711177>. gtk2-2.24.24 is the first gtk2 release containing the fix. |
