This message is a reminder that Fedora 27 is nearing its end of life. On 2018-Nov-30 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 27. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '27'. 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 27 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. The same bug is still present in gv-3.7.4-17.fc29. To wit: # grep 'ps.*'rite /usr/share/gv/gv_system.ad GV.gsCmdConvPDF: gs -dNOPAUSE -dQUIET -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pswrite -sOutputFile=%s -f %s -c save pop quit # gs -h | grep 'ps.*write' eplcolor eplmono eps2write eps9high eps9mid epson epsonc escp escpage pr1000_4 pr150 pr201 ps2write psdcmyk psdcmykog psdrgb pwgraster pxlcolor x11gray2 x11gray4 x11mono xcf xes xpswrite This can be worked around by each user separately by setting properly "Convert PDF" format in "Setup Options" menu but this hardly seems to be a good reason for an obsolete command in gv_system.ad.

If > problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. The issue seems to be persistent. With a freshly installed gv-3.7.4-20.fc32 I see in a changelog: * Thu Nov 14 2019 Orion Poplawski <orion> - 3.7.4-20 - Add patch to fix PDF printing (bz#1536211) It appears that this patch was forgotten as I still have in /usr/share/gv/gv_system.ad GV.gsCmdConvPDF: gs -dNOPAUSE -dQUIET -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pswrite .... while 'gs' provides only ps2write. The following will fix this: sed -i 's/pswrite/ps2write/' /usr/share/gv/gv_system.ad but it users should not need it. Shoot, I applied it to Makefile.am instead of Makefile.in (or I needed to re-generate configure). gv-3.7.4-21.fc31 has been pushed to the Fedora 31 testing repository.
