Comment 1 Reinout van Schouwen 2006-10-04 10:45:15 UTC

Thanks for the bug report. Unfortunately, that stack trace is not very useful in determining the cause of the crash. Can you get us one with debugging symbols? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so.

Comment 3 Christian Persch 2006-10-17 19:17:43 UTC

The trace is still missing debug symbols from gtk+; can you please install the debug symbols for gtk+ and get a better trace?

Still it's clear this is a bug in cups backend of gtk-print, re-assigning.

Comment 5 mohan.satish 2006-10-19 15:02:41 UTC

how to reproduce the crash

Add a custom page using the file -> print setup option. 

Add custom pages of 8x6, 5x4, 3x8 etc and select one of the pages for print

fire up the print dialog box and application will crash
