Your assumption that the issue has something to do with encyptfs is incorrect. The real issue is with file permissions. If your home directory doesn't have 0751 or more permissive rights (Ubuntu defaults are 0755), printing will fail. Ditto if encryption or some other method results in Others user losing execute access over $HOME.
The average laptop user won't see this issue, because CUPS-PDF no longer is installed by default since Intrepid, now that GTK2 and QT both offer built-in printing dialogs that feature a PDF printing option. -- cups-pdf incompatible with .Private ecryptfs-encrypted homedir https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371129 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
