[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#368019: fails to print remotely

[Wouter Verhelst]

Package: cupsys
Version: 1.1.23-15
Severity: important

Hi,

I'm not entirely sure whether this is a bug in cupsys or one in ghostscript.
It's probably both. Feel free to reassign if you think it's more appropriate.

When I print remotely to a printer configured on this system, ghostscript will
segfault. However, it does not do so when I print the exact same file locally.

The remote system is an i386 machine running Sarge.

If you need more information, feel free to ask.
