Load a web page in firefox and click File->Print. The Print dialog box appears. 2. Choose Print to File from the list of printers 3. Choose home under Save in folder. (This is always the default selection for me). 4. Type a name in the filename box, and hit Print. What happens: The "Printing" dialog box appears, the progress indicator goes up to 100%, and then it disappears. However, no file is saved (because /home/ is not writable). What should happen: A message should appear saying that the file cannot be written to /home/, and I should be returned to the Print dialog. $ apt-cache policy firefox | head -3 firefox: Installed: 12.0+build1-0ubuntu0.11.10.1 Candidate: 12.0+build1-0ubuntu0.11.10.1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1004569/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
