Package: libtiff4
Version: 3.9.6-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

Updating libtiff4 from 3.9.6-2 to 3.9.6-5 made my HP 1006p USB printer
installed with hp-setup on CUPS stop working.

The error log stated:
         (/usr/lib/cups/filter/hpcups) crashed on signal 11

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

Re-installing the printer didn't have any effect whatsoever. Neither did
restarting it or cups whatsoever. Machine was rebooted too to no avail.

I tried downgrading to 3.9.6-2 and the issue went away immediately (no restart
of anything needed after dpkg -i).

I tried installing 3.9.6-4 and 3.9.6-3 and the issue is also present in both
versions, but not on 3.9.6-2

Let me know what I can do to assist you with troubleshooting this issue.

All package versions are the ones as they are right now in testing:

hplip 3.12.2-1
cups 1.5.2-5
cups-filters 1.0.2-1
libcupsfilters1 1.0.2-1

As the package is in the oldlibs section I thought of installing libtiff5 but
the dependency chain is broken as packages depend on libtiff4 directly with no
alternative for libtiff5 so I assume there was some kind of incompatible change
inbetween.
