On a minimal, newly installed unstable amd64 system I set up a print
queue for a file device with the hpijs-pcl5e PPD. Printing a text file
to file:/tmp/fs1020d and through cups-pdf failed with the 'crashed on
signal 11' line in the error log.

However, the Gutenprint and postscript driver both worked to produce
an expected output in /tmp. This is reason enough to question whether
the package is rendered unusable and consquently class its severity
as 'important' at the most.

The bug may also not be in cups-filters.

Regards,

Brian.
