Bug#335483: Sorted out the problem - sort of....
Hi, in the meantime, I made a bug report direct to the gimp-print people: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/? func=detail&atid=101537&aid=117&group_id=1537 After longer discussion and several tests, it turned out that the problem would vanish the very moment I built the debian package from its debian sources (note: including the debian patches!). So it appears, the problem comes from a broken debian build environment, or, at least a build incompatible with my machine (a 21164a). So, to summarize: the debian binary packages are broken (so the bug is not solved), but the debian source packages are not. Cheers, Andreas. PGP.sig Description: Signierter Teil der Nachricht

That's really, really strange. It certainly explains why I couldn't reproduce it or fix it. I'll forward this to the debian-alpha folks. Is the alpha buildd toolchain and the build environment completely up-to-date? This bug has been around for at least one year. > So it appears, the problem comes from a broken debian build > environment, or, at least a build incompatible with my machine (a > 21164a). There is likely some difference between your system and the buildd. If we can find that and fix it on the buildd, that should clear this problem up. Regards, Roger -- .''`.

Please could you verify if this problem is fixed with the latest Gutenprint packages (5.0.1) in testing or unstable? Hopefully the Alpha buildd has been fixed in the interim. Thanks, Roger -- .''`.

After installing 5.0.1 the following error is back in the log files: E [17/Jul/2007:08:13:27 +0200] [Job 163] Gutenprint: Buffer overflow: limit 544, actual 567, count 30 Of course, nothing will print...

Is that still the case with this release? Thanks, Roger -- .''`.
