Well, I finally narrow it down to one build in functionality it that is
build into some library, though nobody can tell me which library is it.
I'm talking about the option when you go to "Print" from for example Firefox
or evince, when print window pop-up there is option: "Print to File" (this
has nothing to do with cups-pdf filter)
This option is not working as before. Prior to upgrade I could print from
Firefox to PDF to any user sub-directory now I can only print to user home
folder. Evince will not print at all to pdf or ps file.
So that library screw me up, but I don't know which one is it.


Is that library ghostscript-gpl? The package provides quite a bit of
functionality regarding PS/PDF file generation. On my system this
gives:

$ equery depends ghostscript-gpl

A lot of packages. So I suspect that is the problem.

No, I checked on my functioning systems (prior upgrade) is 
ghostscript-gpl-9.05-r1 and the after upgrade it was the same version so it is 
not it.
