Hi David,
I upgraded our print server from bo to hamm. Since then, we see race
conditions when printing ascii files (the filter entry is
default filter /usr/bin/enscript
Sending ascii files to the printer (lpr *.h) results in a random number of
files printed. It is neither clear (=reproducible) which files are printed nor
how many.
Converting them to postscript works fine. We are using lprng.
It looks somewhat like the problem which is supposed to be fixed:
* Fix /tmp-exploits bug reported by Thomas Rössler (Bug#21251:
magicfilter: magicfilter-1.2 contains a tmpnam() race condition).
He also donated the patch (thanks!).
Rainer.
