Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: cups
Previously, I've always been able to print PDFs from the command line.
However, after the latest update on 9.04, I can nolonger print pdfs.
If I try 'lpr xxx.pdf', My memory usage shoots to the roof.
Running 'top' show the culprit to be 'pdftopdf' .
I watched it climb to over 2GB memory usage while trying to print a 1mb
pdf file.
The same pdf prints perfectly on one of my 8.04 servers.
I'm fairly certain this worked before the last cups update, but I'm not
sure. I might not have been successful ever in 9.04. I know I was able
to print in 8.10.
