@Jonathan Before "claiming" that someones work is incorrect please mark sure your own is correct first. The fact that you still have ".ps" should have been your first clue as the patch that was committed would have at a minimum change that to ".pdf"
Please try rebuilding after running a 'make clean' and make sure all other instances of Thunderbird are closed before running your new build. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488857 Title: Printing to PDF/PS/SVG defaults to a hidden (.name) filename Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Confirmed Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit: New Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Fix Committed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “firefox-3.5” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: firefox When one prints to PDF/PS/SVG from Firefox, the filename defaults to ".pdf" or ".ps" or ".svg" These filenames are hidden by default by in GNOME and it is my opinion that this is a bad practice. If one forgets to specify a filename then the file is hidden in the user's home directory. This could potentially be very confusing for a new user to Linux, Ubuntu, or GNOME. Even I spent a while looking for a file I printed that I had forgotten to specify a filename for. If it is possible, I would like to see a default filename of "[Window_Title].pdf" or at least "output.pdf" Might this be suitable for inclusion in the current round of paper cuts? I also checked the same dialog in Chromium and it defaulted to "output.pdf" Information Package: Firefox (though this may be more related to Nautilus if the 'Print to File' dialog is a Nautilus component) Version: firefox: Installed: 3.5.5+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.10.1 Candidate: 3.5.5+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.10.1 Version table: *** 3.5.5+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.10.1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com karmic-updates/main Packages 500 http://security.ubuntu.com karmic-security/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.5.3+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu6 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages Expected operation: default non-hidden filename when printing to file Actual operation: default filename is a hidden file in GNOME To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/488857/+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
