Public bug reported: On Linux Mint 22.3 LTS / 24.04 LTS noble German/DE Locale
Trying to print in Libre Office causes a crash instantly when selecting a printer with an older .ppd driver. (in this case for a Konica Minolta C364e Version 1.27 Date 5.7.2024 in https://www.konicaminolta.de/de-de/support/download-center, Printer does not need to exist to test it). Libre office does not respond any more and needs to be killed. lpoptions -p [printername] -l creates "Assertion failed on Memalloc", so its definitly a cups and not a libre office issue Seems to be somehow related to Locale Settings, with LCMESSAGES=C lpoptions -p [printername] -l created the expected output, but Libre Office did then still crash often on selecting printer. Affected Systems can be fixed via downgrade to 2.4.7-1.2ubuntu7.9 and holding the package with this code in Terminal: sudo apt-get install --allow-downgrades cups=2.4.7-1.2ubuntu7 cups-core- drivers=2.4.7-1.2ubuntu7 cups-daemon=2.4.7-1.2ubuntu7 libcups2t64=2.4.7-1.2ubuntu7 cups-client=2.4.7-1.2ubuntu7 sudo apt-mark hold cups cups-core-drivers cups-daemon libcups2t64 cups- client ** Affects: cups (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: regression-update -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2156489 Title: cups crashes after update to 2.4.7-1.2ubuntu7.13 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/2156489/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
