gtk and CUPS integration.
« on: April 19, 2015, 11:15:35 PM »
This probably needs fixing in all repos.
gtk2 appears not to have CUPS integration compiled in.
This makes printing very difficult with firefox and seamonkey, and may be why chromium-browser locks up if printing is attempted.
I tried editing .gtkrc-2.0 as described in the following bug report.  I can remove file and lpr from the print list but cannot get CUPS printers
to be seen.

----Edit----
I checked the gtk3 Apps, and their priint dialog box shows CUPS printers.

It looks like /usr/local/lib/gtk2/2.10.0/printbackends/libprintbackend-cups.so is missing - cups-dev needs to be present at compile time.
