We have prepared a patch for the package in Ubuntu 18.04 (CUPS 2.2.7). We would like to request to include a solution like this for at least Ubuntu 18.04.
We also made a pull request in the official CUPS repository: https://github.com/apple/cups/issues/5817 https://github.com/apple/cups/pull/5818 However, we don't have plans to upgrade or change the distribution we use (Ubuntu 18.04), and this issue is affecting us considerably. ** Bug watch added: github.com/apple/cups/issues #5817 https://github.com/apple/cups/issues/5817 ** Patch added: "usb-libusb.c.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1890572/+attachment/5399506/+files/usb-libusb.c.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1890572 Title: USB backend never ends if the printer is not connected To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1890572/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
