[Touch-packages] [Bug 1846821] Re: Qt print dialog has wrong default page size
Łukasz, thank you very much for accepting the package into bionic- proposed. I confirm that the updated binary package libqt5printsupport5 fixes the problem. I also updated other libqt5* packages available in bionic-proposed, and did not notice any obvious regressions. However, I would like to voice my differing opinion on the importance of this bug. While this is perhaps not a high-impact bug in the meaning that it does not impact system stability or security, it is nonetheless one of the "infuriating little bugs" that significantly degrade user experience. For the user who does not remember to dig into prefs to change paper size before every print job, the bug results in the necessity of printing everything twice, as the first copy (A4 on Letter) has top and bottom lines clipped and missing, rendering the printout unusable. This bug, coupled with similar ones and the general instability of KDE desktop, makes Kubuntu 18.04 unsuitable as a desktop OS for everyday use, in my opinion. Because of that I am very grateful that this bug is getting fixed. ** Tags removed: verification-needed-bionic ** Tags added: verification-done-bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qtbase-opensource-src in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1846821 Title: Qt print dialog has wrong default page size Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in qtbase-opensource-src source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Bug description: Please backport Qt patch 213677 to qtbase-opensource-src https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/213677 [Impact] In Qt5 applications, print dialog (Printer Properties) always defaults to A4 paper size, even when Letter is set as a default in all system and KDE preferences.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1846821] Re: Qt print dialog has wrong default page size
Normally, as this is not really a high-impact bug, I would be a bit reluctant to accept it as an SRU. Since every SRU introduces risks, especially if it's in a big core package like qtbase. But since I see there's activity here (and testers available) + the patch is rather straightforward, then oh well, why not give it a chance. ** Changed in: qtbase-opensource-src (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: New => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qtbase-opensource-src in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1846821 Title: Qt print dialog has wrong default page size Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in qtbase-opensource-src source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Bug description: Please backport Qt patch 213677 to qtbase-opensource-src https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/213677 [Impact] In Qt5 applications, print dialog (Printer Properties) always defaults to A4 paper size, even when Letter is set as a default in all system and KDE preferences.

I can confirm that the patch fixes the problem, i.e. Qt print dialog now defaults to page size as set in System Settings Printers applet. To apply the fix, it was enough to add the PPA repository, upgrade libqt5printsupport5 package, and then close and reopen applications that were affected by the bug.
