Title:
GIMP 2.4's new print dialog is disabled
Status in gimp package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gimp
GIMP 2.4 now uses GTK+'s print dialog. (See http://gimp.org/release-
notes/gimp-2.4.html ) This is very nice as the gimp-print plugin's
dialog is very confusing and sometimes acts weird with respect to
CUPS.
The build in Ubuntu appears to not be compiled with support for the
new print dialog and only prints with gutenprint. I can confirm that
the nicer dialog exists in -rc3 from a build of it I made on my other
machine a while back. I'm pretty sure that build was compiled with
default configure options, but I don't have it recorded anywhere to
confirm. (I couldn't do it in Feisty because the repositories did not
wish to update from GTK+ 2.10.11 to 2.10.13 and GIMP 2.4 depends on
the latter due to bugs in the one shipped in Feisty.)
Anyway, could the package be compiled to include support for the new
dialog? It's a much more convenient and easy to use dialog than the
original messy gutenprint/gimp-print one.
(Incidentally, now that the final stable version of GIMP 2.4 is
released, will Ubuntu Gutsy get an updated package? The changes are
just bugfixes and the "Release Candidate" on the splash screen looks
really unpolished and unprofessional.)
