Description Tony 2018-06-07 12:31:01 UTC
kde-apps/print-manager doesn't like recent net-print/cups-2.2.8, numerous errors leading to high system load

After a recent update from net-print/cups-2.2.7 to net-print/cups-2.2.8, I'm seeing lots of errors being thrown by libkcups (part of kde-apps/print-manager)
The following 3 error messages are being repeated over and over in the journal

Jun 07 12:44:15 tony-workstation plasmashell[679]: libkcups: 3 "LaserJet8150"
Jun 07 12:44:15 tony-workstation plasmashell[679]: libkcups: CUPS-Get-Printers last error: 0 successful-ok
Jun 07 12:44:15 tony-workstation plasmashell[679]: libkcups: "040B localhost \"requesting-user-name\" attribute with bad value."

This is causing system load to rise significantly
libkcups and plasmashell processes at 70-80% CPU usage

Tried re-emerging kde-apps/print-manager, no dice.
But downgrading from net-print/cups-2.2.8 to net-print/cups-2.2.7 fixes issue

Comment 3 Tony 2018-06-08 21:03:05 UTC
This is a bug in CUPS

CUPS maintainers have identified the issue
https://github.com/heftig/cups/commit/455c52a027ab3548953372a0b7bdb0008420e9ba

CUPS is incorrectly parsing UTF8 values passed to it from clients

Can I request a hard-mask of net-print/cups-2.2.8 ?
Issue is likely to be resolved in the next release

Many thanks
