It would be nice if this bug was fixed for Saucy, but the fix wasn't backported yet.
I got eog's source code for Saucy (apt-get source eog) and applied the changes mentioned in the original patch here: <https://bug721755 .bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=265878> (the affected line numbers were different). The backported patch is attached. The patch seems to fix the bug for Saucy, but I don't know if it creates additional issues. I look forward to see this fixed in Saucy! Meanwhile, thanks to the author of the original patch, Lars Uebernickel! ** Patch added: "Backported patch for Saucy" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eog/+bug/1262801/+attachment/3958212/+files/dont-call-gdkthreadsinit-saucy.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to eog in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1262801 Title: eog hangs when the print dialog is closed Status in “eog” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: When viewing an image in eog (the GNOME image viewer), if I open the Print dialog through the "Image > Print" menu, eog will hang, and be grayed out, when the dialog is closed (by clicking Cancel, by clicking Preview, by pressing Esc, etc.). This bug also occurs in the Live DVD, at least when using Virtualbox. I'm using Saucy. Curiously, when the Print dialog is opened using the keyboard shortcut "Ctrl + P", the bug doesn't occur, and eog continues to work fine after closing the dialog.
