[gentoo-user] Emerge firefox 2.0.0.8 and now printing is hosed

I've just emerged firefox 2.0.0.8 (I think it was 2.0.0.7 before), and now
attempts to print a web page bring me to a skimpy little dialog with just
two buttons: Cancel and OK.  The OK button leads to an error dialog.  So
printing is now impossible.  Fortunately, I have seamonkey, which is working
just fine.

But I'd like firefox to work too.

It's a gentoo ebuild, so I start here.  For all I know, it was something
that happened here.

My OS is cranking along.  It just spent 2 or 3 weeks recompiling itself with
GCC 4.1.2, upgrading from 3.something.
Only Qemu failed to come over.  Then I promptly had to upgrade to a broken
firefox, but that's not a show-stopper for me.

I agree with you there.  Besides, I just upgraded to firefox-2.0.0.8 as
well, and I have no such problems... although it was firefox-bin i686,
I still feel relatively confident that it's not firefox's fault, at
least not completely.

That's what I get for posting drunk.  My apologies for being belligerent!

I'm using mozilla-firefox-2.0.0.8, not -bin, and printing works fine
here also.  Just another data point;  sorry I don't know how to help,

I might have missed it, but was revdep-rebuild tried already? :)

Also, maybe it could be something with gtk+ or some printing component (old cups? cups ebuild was just updated) instead of firefox? So, how about other apps and their print dialogs? Are they broken too?

Nah.  It's what I get for posting stupid.  I just needed to restart
firefox.  Everything is now good.
