G'day, I got lost in libgnomeprintui and libgnomeprint, but I did figure out from an strace that libcups forks and uses HTTP to reach cupsd, and if this can be prevented the symptom goes away.
So another workaround is to temporarily move the file /usr/lib/libgnomeprint/2.18.6/libgnomeprintcups.so ... and then one can print to PDF or generic postscript using lpr. -- James Cameron mailto:qu...@us.netrek.org http://quozl.netrek.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
