I have reopened the bug. The best way to reproduce this would be in a way that doesn't require the printer to actually be there...maybe you can provide instructions for installing that printer driver using a network printer that's offline (so I could follow it even though I don't have that printer), or maybe you can figure out what backend command is being run by the print system and actually find a specific command that crashes. I wish I could be more helpful, but my time for debian has become very limited (I have young twins and hardly any free time, though this is getting gradually better). Maybe debian-users or some online forum might be useful in helping you figure it out. If the program that's crashing is /usr/lib/cups/filter/hpcups, one thing you might try is to move that to hpcups.real and replace hpcups with a shell script like #!/bin/sh echo $0 ${1+"$@"} >> /tmp/log exec $0.real ${1+"$@"} by copying the above into that file and using chmod +x to make it executable. Then do whatever you do that causes a crash and log at /tmp/log to find out how hpcups was invoked. I'm not sure how that program is used, including whether there might be some kind of temporary file or standard input that's relevant, so this may not get you all the way there. This general type of approach would be what I would use though to try to find a recipe for reproducing the problem. Maybe also the hpcups people can help as they would be much more familiar with how the filters are run. I hope this helps you a little. Please accept my apologies for prematurely closing the bug, which should now be reopened. -- Jay Berkenbilt <q...@debian.org> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
