Thank you for filing this bug and adding the required SRU information. But I have to reject it:
Actually, that patch is just the tip of the iceberg. It does not apply cleanly unless you backport many other patches. If you look at OpenSUSE, they have added 11 patches related to printing dialog and also 17 other patches related to printing: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/569841 https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/KDE:Qt:5.9/libqt5-qtbase Some of these patches change private API, so they require rebuild of packages relying on it. Unfortunately, this does not meet our SRU criteria. ** Also affects: qtbase-opensource-src (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: qtbase-opensource-src (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: qtbase-opensource-src (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: New => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qtbase-opensource-src in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1858141 Title: "Advanced" tab is missing from Print dialog in Qt5 applications Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in qtbase-opensource-src source package in Bionic: Won't Fix Bug description: Please backport Qt patch 213391 to qtbase-opensource-src in Bionic: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/213391/ [Impact] On Kubuntu 18.04 (bionic), any applications using Qt5 are unable to fully configure printers from within the "Print..." dialog because the "Advanced" tab is no longer present. Settings shown here will differ by printer, but this includes important settings such as paper type (plain, glossy, photo, etc.), print resolution, and ink usage strategies. Gwenview and Okular are notable affected applications. GTK applications are unaffected and do show the advanced options provided by the printer driver. As a workaround for Qt5 applications, the printer *default* advanced settings can be successfully accessed and changed from within the "Printers" section of Plasma's "System Settings", but this is cumbersome, unintuitive, and is not the intended way of interacting with these settings on a per-print-job basis. [Additional Information] This was identified as a bug in Qt5 upstream: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-54464 The bug was fixed upstream in Qt 5.11, but Bionic is stable on Qt 5.9. I'd like to request that this patch be backported to Bionic, please. [Regression Potential] OpenSUSE has already backported this patch to their Qt 5.9 stable branch, so there is precedent for this patch being low risk: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/KDE:Qt:5.9/libqt5-qtbase/0010-Reintroduce-the-Advanced-tab-in-the-QPrintProperties.patch?expand=1 Software Versions: $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.
