Bug#418974: Processed: reassign 418974 to cupsys, forcibly merging 379510 418974

[Michael Schmitt]

Hi Sven, and all others,

I agree, we should not wait till gnome fixes it if the reason why this
breaks the testpage is known and obvious! I had this issue myself the
last hours and I never thought this is just the gnome testpage that does
not work. It was just by chance I tried the cups-testpage on the
webinterface and I was really perplexed as it worked there after I have
found out that it may be a problem with the PS transformation. It took
one  minute thinking to see the problem lies where I never thought it
could be... after hours of googleing, purging and reinstalling cups /
gs-* and lots of other things!

To be honest, I barely can't believe that this bug is known for more
than half a year now and still not fixed.

Please fix that issue! So maybe several thousands, millions, billions of
other Debian users don't fall into this trap too, thinking their printer
is broken just because the testpage does not work. Guess... a testpage
should be for testing purposes, suboptimal if this does not work but
everything else does.

regards
Michael
