Description of problem: If no printer is chosen (probably due to the fact that previously selected one was removed, or cups is not running), program crashes due to NULL pointer dereference. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gtk2-2.12.5-1.fc8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run evince, open printing dialog, select an installed printer and close it 2. stop cups 3. open printing dialog and close it Actual results: Crash. Expected results: No crash. Additional info: Core was generated by `evince Prakticke_cviceni_c.3.pdf'.

Hi, this is Evince bug. Because Evince handles printing in its own way (using some widgets from gtk2). It is related to bug #429543 (Evince prints even when I hit escape in print dialog). Marek Kasik
This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. 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 prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 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 please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. 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 process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 8 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-01-07. Fedora 8 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
