> So... can I expect that the fix will ever be ported to Precise? yes, as stated in comment #1 on this bug...
The issue is mostly a manpower one, if you want to do the backport/attach a debdiff to the bug/file the stable update informations (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates: impact/test case/regression potential) that would help, I can review/sponsor the update ** Also affects: gtk+2.0 (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: gtk+2.0 (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: gtk+2.0 (Ubuntu Precise) Status: New => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1064140 Title: Authenticated printing on remote servers broken Status in “gtk+2.0” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “gtk+2.0” source package in Precise: Triaged Bug description: Currently, Gtk2 applications (e.g. Firefox) can't print on printers that require authentication if they don't connect to the IPP server via a local unix socket, but over TCP. (the authentication dialog pops up once, but the client only sends an empty password to the server after that). This was fixed in the upstream Gtk3 branch some time ago (commit f807f7834fea0db7b0b68cd1a0dfa3dbe0985ec2), but still hasn't been applied to the Gtk2 branch. The upstream bug report is https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=664640 I have confirmed that the Gtk3 patch also fixes the problem for Gtk2; it would be nice to have the fix included in the Precise Gtk2 packages as I need this feature to work. It probably also affects other Ubuntu releases.
