Package: libcupsys2
Version: 1.3.7-5
Severity: important
I have two printers in my office:
- 10.0.0.153 Kyocera FS-1030D
- 10.0.0.2 Brother MFC7860n
I want to use the second one. The first one is not mine and drop all packets to
10.0.0.153:631 (I don't know why, but that should not be a problem since I
don't want to use this printer).
When evince try to list the list of printers, it blocks on the following call:
connect(19, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(631),
sin_addr=inet_addr("10.0.0.153")}, 16
So I cannot print, even if the second printer is the default printer, because
programs using libcups hangs on connect() before showing the printer list.
I use this workaround:
iptables -A OUTPUT -d 10.0.0.153 -j REJECT
With this workaround, I can successfully select my printer and print.
My bug was reported upstream but according to mike, it is a problem in
the configuration. I didn't changed the Debian default configuration:
http://www.cups.org/str.php?L2835
My bug is similar to http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=235204
because both blocks on connect(). However, my CUPS server is on localhost (I
didn't changed the Debian default configuration).
Thanks

I don't have any answer and this bug seems out of date.
So, I'm closing it.
Thanks,
Jean
