using app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.71-r1 i tried print this pdf http://www.akkadia.org/drepper/cpumemory.pdf and it didn't worked. I digged a bit with the help of billie and _AxS_ (thanks again) in irc, and we discovered that both pdf2ps and pdftops were failing to convert it (the first one trowing an error, the second one without errors, but generatin a blank ps). This prevents the printing since they are converted to ps first. My printer is an hp deskjet f4580 (so i use hplip) for the record Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. be sure app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.71-r1 is installed 2. try to print the first page of http://www.akkadia.org/drepper/cpumemory.pdf 3. or try to convert it and see pdf{2,to}ps fail Actual Results: The page is not printed Expected Results: The page should be printed without problems Installing app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.71-r6 fixed the issue. May i suggest to stabilize it?
Oh i forgotten to say i rebuilded cpus and hplip after updating ghostscript-gpl. I have no idea if this is really needed i didn't tested well but it seems it is for me
The same happens to me with app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.71-r6 and printing from Korganizer.
