So, on a test machine:

   - with sarge: gedit 2.8.3-4sarge1
        Print, Generic Postscript, Custom, /tmp/bla.sh
        /tmp/bla.sh is an executable shell script
        message: ** (gedit:1481): WARNING **: Opening '/tmp/bla.sh' for output failed
        strace shows nothing todo with bla.sh

   - taking sid's source and recompiling (2-10.3-4) under sarge
        Print, Generic Postscript, Custom, /tmp/bla.sh
        SAME BUG

     NOTES
        - had to force (-d) depends to libpspell-dev (expected 0.60.3-2,
          present 0.60.2+20050121-2)

   - taking sid's source for libgnomeprintui2.2-dev (libgnomeprintui-2.10.2-2),
     libgnomeprint2.2-dev (libgnomeprint_2.10.3-2) and libgnomecups-0.2.0.

     BUG FIXED

I shall then assume the bug was probably in libgnomeprint. Installing
just the fixed libs:
   dpkg -i libgnomeprint2.2-0_2.10.3-2_i386.deb libgnomecups1.0-1_0.2.0-2_i386.deb libgnomeprint2.2-data_2.10.3-2_all.deb
fixed the bug.

Then I installed apt-get source libgnomeprint2.2 from stable, and
did some diffing.

It looks like it's bug http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=169963
and  http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=169997 (aka
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=167325).

Will Debian backport those grave functionnality bugs ?  Or just
document those ?

Thank you for your help!
