[Bug 982675] Re: pdftops crashed with SIGABRT in __libc_message()
This bug was fixed in the package cups-filters - 1.0.18-0ubuntu0.1 --- cups-filters (1.0.18-0ubuntu0.1) precise-proposed; urgency=low [ Till Kamppeter ] * New upstream release - pdftops: Allow selection whether Ghostscript or Poppler is used at runtime, setting the "pdftops-renderer" option to "gs" or "pdftops". This way one can switch to Poppler per-queue if there are incompatibilities with certain PostScript printers. - pdftops: Allow setting an upper limit for the image rendering resolution, also at runtime, setting the option "pdftops-max-image-resolution-default" to the desired limit in dpi. "0" means no limit. - pdftops: Fixed crash by wrong usage of sizeof() function when adding "Collate" to the fifth command line argument for the "pstops" CUPS filter call (LP: #982675). - pdftops: Removed newline from copies value when reading it from the "%%PDFTOPDFNumCopies" entry of the incoming PDF file. - pdftops: Silenced compiler warning about ignoring the return value of the write() function. - pdftops: Added a crash guard. - pdftops: Start determining the printing resolution with cupsRasterInterpretPPD(), this is the most reliable as often the choice names of the "Resolution" option are marketing names with higher numerical values than the actual resolution. Also ignore error exit values of cupsRasterInterpretPPD() as the function can error out after having found the resolution (LP: #984082). - pdftops: If printing resolution is determined by cupsRasterInterpretPPD() do not stick on 100 dpi if the resolution cannot be determined (LP: #984082). * debian/rules: Set default renderer for the pdftops filter to Poppler due to many printer's buggy interpreters having problems with GhostScript's PostScript and set image rendering resolution limit of the pdftops filter to 360 dpi to prevents slow processing by the printer if very high resolutions are used or if the printing resolution is mis-detected by the pdftops filter (LP: #668800, LP #951627 (comment #30), LP: #998087, LP: #992982 (comments #26, #27, #30, #31), LP: #997728, LP: #994477, LP: #998087, LP: #978120, LP: #862167).

To the SRU team: The relevant changes for the fix are in the file filter/pdftops.c. The file in the debdiff looks very cluttered as there are many lines where only white space (indentation) changed. Attached to this comment is a cleaner diff for this file with white space changes ignored (diff -b), here one especially sees how the conditional compiling for Ghostscript/Poppler is replaced by "if"s so that the Ghostscript/Poppler decision can be made at run time. ** Patch added: "cups-filters-pdftops-c-1.0.17-1.0.18.diff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups-filters/+bug/982675/+attachment/3149145/+files/cups-filters-pdftops-c-1.0.17-1.0.18.diff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/982675 Title: pdftops crashed with SIGABRT in __libc_message() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups-filters/+bug/982675/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 982675] Re: pdftops crashed with SIGABRT in __libc_message()
This bug was fixed in the package cups-filters - 1.0.18-1
---
cups-filters (1.0.18-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release
- pdftops: Allow selection whether Ghostscript or Poppler is used
at runtime, setting the "pdftops-renderer" option to "gs" or
"pdftops". This way one can switch to Poppler per-queue if there
are incompatibilities with certain PostScript printers.
- pdftops: Allow setting an upper limit for the image rendering
resolution, also at runtime, setting the option
"pdftops-max-image-resolution-default" to the desired limit in dpi.
"0" means no limit. Default limit is 1440 dpi. This prevents slow
processing by the printer if very high resolutions are used or
if the printing resolution is mis-detected by the pdftops filter.
- pdftops: Fixed crash by wrong usage of sizeof() function when adding
"Collate" to the fifth command line argument for the "pstops" CUPS
filter call (LP: #982675).
- pdftops: Removed newline from copies value when reading it from
the "%%PDFTOPDFNumCopies" entry of the incoming PDF file.
- pdftops: Silenced compiler warning about ignoring the return
value of the write() function.
- pdftops: Added a crash guard.
- pdftops: Start determining the printing resolution with
cupsRasterInterpretPPD(), this is the most reliable as often
the choice names of the "Resolution" option are marketing names
with higher numerical values than the actual resolution. Also
ignore error exit values of cupsRasterInterpretPPD() as the
function can error out after having found the resolution.
- pdftops: If printing resolution is determined by
cupsRasterInterpretPPD() do not stick on 100 dpi if the
resolution cannot be determined (LP: #984082).
- pdftopdf: Fixed segmentation fault when printing selected pages
("page-ranges" option, LP: #980673).

I could reproduce this bug also on my PostScript printer (HP Color LaserJet CM3530 MFP, should occur on all PostScript printers which do internal Collate according to their PPD files) and with this I could find the bug in the pdftops filter.

Thank you very much. Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce this bug, even printing 2 copies into a queue using your PPD.
