Recompiling Edgy's cupsys 1.2.4 works as a workaround. Was tired of restarting cups servers.
# wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/4710126/cupsys_1.2.4.orig.tar.gz # wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/4710127/cupsys_1.2.4-2ubuntu3.diff.gz # wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/4710128/cupsys_1.2.4-2ubuntu3.dsc # dpkg-source -x cupsys_cupsys_1.2.4-2ubuntu3.dsc # cd cupsys-1.2.4 # dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot # cd .. # sudo dpkg -i *.deb This is a fairly serious error though. Without a workaround it prevents ubuntu 7.10 to be even considered as a printing server. -- MASTER [Feisty] cupsd leaking file descriptors (was: Multiple jobs are not printed) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
