[Bug 646280] New: faxspool does not work any more with pdf files (package mgetty+sendfax)
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=646280 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=646280#c0 Summary: faxspool does not work any more with pdf files (package mgetty+sendfax) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: dieter.jurzitza@t-online.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.9.2.10) Gecko/20100914 SUSE/3.6.10-0.3.1 Firefox/3.6.10 The latest update of acrobat reader creates a "Speicherzugriffsfehler" message when performing something like cat <PDFDOCUMENT> | acroread -toPostScript the output is empty. Because senfax uses this for processing pdf-files faxing does not work any more. Because the intermediate step with acroread is not required by any means, a fix is easy. As I do not know whether or not there are side effects (other programs using this feature) I think the issue is worth reporting to Adobe. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. cat <PDFDOCUMENT> | acroread -toPostScript Actual Results: Speicherzugriffsfehler Expected Results: outputting a postscript version of PDFDOCUMENT in the terminal This patch removes acroread from the g3-file creation patch, as gs can handle pdf files directly. However, as I do not know whether there exists other software relying on the functionality of acroread -toPostScript I thought this bug ought to be tracked. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

For some reason I forgot to attach the patch that fixes this behaviour by simply removing acroread from sendfax, I'll add it tonight. However, acroread is an additional thing to install that is not really required for sendfax, so I think it is a good idea to remove it and get rid of this dependency, as shown by my patch. Still I think that a SegmentFault message (what is similar to what I get ecept the difference in language) is not the expected behaviour from acroread. So my question to you is whether you are going to forward the issue to the acroread maintainer or do you expect me to do this? In the latter case, should I open a new bug report?
