Re: Printing and gnumeric broken
John:
I'm seeing the exact same behavior on my machine. Starting gnumeric
and other GUI apps takes up to a minute. This *extreme* slowness
started when I did a dist-upgrade on Sep 30, which is probably when
libgnomeprint and libgnomecups upgraded.
I also see the error you describe.
It seems there are a few updates to get today for:
libgnomeprint2.2-data/testing upgradeable from 2.8.0-3 to 2.8.0.1-1
libgnomecups1.0-1/testing upgradeable from 0.1.12-1 to 0.1.13-1
ibgnomeprint2.2-0/testing upgradeable from 2.8.0-3 to 2.8.0.1-1
I'll reply again after updating.
