Indeed. Very strange. And I even have it installed. But ff3 can print to lpr only when I install the compiled-from-source version of 2.10 (in /usr/local). As soon as I uninstall it, lpr printing on ff3 becomes unavailable. /usr/lib/gtk-2.0 (the Debian version) contains subdirectories: 2.10.0 2.2.0 2.4.0 include modules No 2.12.0! I don't understand this numbering system. /usr/local/lib/gtk-2.0 contains: 2.10.0 2.2.0 2.4.0 include (no "modules", but the same version numbers). The real difference is probably to be found here: the Sid version has: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -alG /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/printbackends/ total 104 drwxr-xr-x 2 root 4096 2008-06-09 17:32 . drwxr-xr-x 9 root 4096 2007-04-15 14:58 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root 52980 2008-06-07 11:16 libprintbackend-cups.so -rw-r--r-- 1 root 13044 2008-06-07 11:16 libprintbackend-file.so -rw-r--r-- 1 root 10084 2008-06-07 11:16 libprintbackend-lpr.so -rw-r--r-- 1 root 11140 2008-06-07 11:16 libprintbackend-test.so While the compiled-from-source version (from gtk.org) has: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -alG /usr/local/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/printbackends/ total 92 drwxr-sr-x 2 root 4096 2008-07-06 21:26 . drwxr-sr-x 6 root 4096 2008-07-06 21:26 .. -rwxr-xr-x 1 root 1315 2008-07-06 21:26 libprintbackend-file.la -rwxr-xr-x 1 root 37984 2008-07-06 21:26 libprintbackend-file.so -rwxr-xr-x 1 root 1309 2008-07-06 21:26 libprintbackend-lpr.la -rwxr-xr-x 1 root 34034 2008-07-06 21:26 libprintbackend-lpr.so I compiled by just "./configure", "make", without setting any options. So by default gtk does not have a cups print backend, only "lpr" and "file" (when compiled on a cups-less system, I presume). The Debian version has "lpr" and "file", as well as "cups" and something called "test". Maybe you can explain these findings. Anyway it seems that the bug is not in ff3 but in libgtk2.0-0.
