Public bug reported: Binary package hint: kdeprint
The poster Option from kdeprint does not work / shows error. Just wanted to print a poster from KDE the first time (pls. note: I use a german KDE-Localization; I hope I translate the Items correctly) -Opened a Picture in Gwenview - Selected File/Print - Selected Properties for the Printer - Selected the Poster-Tab - Checked the "print Poster" Checkbox - An error is being displayed in the Dialog: " poster: invalid option -- F Usage: poster infile options are: -v: be verbose -f: ask manual feed on plotting / printing device -i: specify input image " The same error (with some more options being displayed) is being shown in System Settings / Printer / Profile / Poster once the "print Poster" checkbox is checked. I read that kdeprint needs a KDE-modified Version of poster, so checked which package the program belongs to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -S /usr/bin/poster poster: /usr/bin/poster As that "poster" didn't look like KDE-modified I wanted to remove in adept and replace with the KDE-Version; however, once I selected to deinstall poster Adept showed that I also wanted to delete kdeprint. This happened in Kubuntu 8.04. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 8.04 Release: 8.04 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -l kdeprint\* poster\* Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Installed/Config-f/Unpacked/Failed-cfg/Half-inst/t-aWait/T-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Beschreibung +++-==============-==============-============================================ ii kdeprint 4:3.5.9-0ubunt print system for KDE ii poster 1:19990428-8 Create large posters out of PostScript pages Would be great if this could be fixed (I'm not sure; from what I found the "standard" Poster should be replaced by either the KDE-modified Version or by a more recent "standard" Poster).
