displaying is not the problem, and if it is junk and not printable, okay. but segfault then ? should go: "hello user doc not printable, cause ..." not stoping printing in the middle of the doc/job and display's nothing. if i hadn't switch to a terminal, i hadn't realized the segfault. for me it's not the problem to workaround malfunctioning programs,etc, but take a look at fedora-list ! it's your audience ! okay ?
The segfault is not the cause of the problem but a symptom. It isn't desirable that it segfaults, but fixing that won't make the job print. The problem stems from the fact that pdftops is creating a bad PS file. I'm not suggesting you use 'gs -sDEVICE=pswrite' instead, just noting its different behaviour to help with diagnosing the problem. I don't know the solution yet.
Reported upstream.
okay ! thx 4 support
today i tested it with another document and on an i386 also. here is the output from x86_64: usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 2 if 0 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x04B8 pid 0x0005 usbcore: registered new driver usblp drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: v0.13: USB Printer Device Class driver python[3768]: segfault at fffffffffffffffa rip 00000037d2a7212b rsp 00007fff3324d710 error 4 usb 2-2: USB disconnect, address 2 drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: usblp0: removed usb 3-2: USB disconnect, address 2
*** Bug 194614 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
segfault is gone. should this bug be closed ?
Are you able to print the original document without problems?
no, but the segfault is gone for other documents ! that's fits my needs. the above doc. gives ijsgimpprint[4847]: segfault at 0000000000000018 rip 0000003382844e80 rsp 00007fff035fed28 error 4. (printed page 3-6) up to you what to do with this bug... okay ?
Then the bug remains present, as expected.
honourable !!! so have i have to have an eye on this also, esp. when fc7-test-x (or what's it's named then) comes up... - thereby i have to do other jobs, apart from testing, esp. those to prevent my fridge to cool some cold, sometimes illuminated, air only -
Fixed in update: ghostscript-8.15.4-1.fc6.
i printed the above from site 1-6 without hassle. thx. same question: to close or not to close this bug ? ;-)
must read ... above doc...
