I got already two other reports about this (but without fix) on the linuxprinting.org forums. I have fixed the bug on linuxprinting.org now, so you can already replace your /usr/bin/foomatic-rip by http://www.linuxprinting.org/download.cgi?filename=foomatic-rip&show=0 Please test and report whether this works now. I will soon put a new foomatic-filters package onto the Cooker. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: ASSIGNED creation_date: description: This is a bad bug. In /usr/bin/foomatic-rip, the current code causes foomatic to go into an infinite loop that eats up memory until all the virtual memory is exhausted and the computer locks solid requiring reboot. --- foomatic-rip~ 2003-08-19 13:04:15.000000000 -0500 +++ foomatic-rip 2003-08-21 04:19:30.000000000 -0500 @@ -5486,7 +5486,7 @@ } else { push (@setupprepend, "$open$cmdvar$close"); my $a = $arg; - while ($arg->{'controlledby'}) { + while ($a->{'controlledby'}) { # Collect option PostScript code to be inserted when # the composite option which controls this option # is found in the PostScript code
