I had this problem with Karmic. Adding capability dac_read_search,
To the app armor profile fixed it for me. I should note that my profile already had the following in it: # unfortunate, but required for when $HOME is 700 capability dac_override, I believe (but am not certain) that addition was the fix Martin Pitt references in comment #62, and possibly by Martin-Éric Racine in comment #71. However, my installation already had dac_override and was not working. Adding dac_read_search finally let it work. I should note that I've used the PDF printing capabilities in the past just fine and don't think I've done a version upgrade in a while. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295536 Title: cups-pdf fails bad status reported and no pdf created -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
