Yes, it is in Feisty, but the fix for the A4 (and other) printing issues
has also changed gtkhtml3.14. So, simply backporting Evolution will not
do the trick: we also need to backport gtkhtml3.14.
On the other hand,... it seems gtkhtml3.14 is only used by Evo, so this
would be a no-brainer. The

Seems unlikely, since gutsy will be out in a month and non-LTS releases
get few non-security related fixes backported.

Well, well, well... nothing beats having a nice debugger the code
build to reference the source... it took me about 15 minutes (after
building installing my versions) to zero in it.
It is possible this has been resolved somewhere between Evolution 2.10.1
(Feisty version) and Evolution 2.11.4
it seems Evolution sets a hardcoded default, and GTK does not override
it with the actual printer settings. I wonder what would happen on
printers that can load two or three different paper sizes... mine does
not -- one single size.
So. Time to look usptream, on GTK for a change.

I just backported the Evolution from Gutsy to my system, and I am
slightly disappointed.
The paper size is fixed... but the other problems that are shown in the

Here is some more information that may help.
I am running Evolution 2.10.1 (the version that comes with Fiesty).
Under an older version (2.6.1), when you go to print, the print dialog
has a 'paper' tab. This tab allows you select, among other things, the
paper size. This tab does not show up
I was able to reproduce this on a clean Feisty box that did not have any

for this, and will report back ASAP.

From a brief look this afternoon I do not think this is related to

Evolution always prints in A4 despite what is in /etc/cups/ppd/ or
