That is fixed in hardy now. We will not change the printing system to something different and not tested in the context in stable though, stable users expect quality and not random changes which can bring new bug ** Changed in: gimp (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist Status: New

Today, gutsy-updates/main contains the following update to gimp: gimp (2.4.0~rc2-3) unstable; urgency=low * The gimp package now includes its own Print plug-in, and should automatically remove the old gimp-print package that was provided by Gutenprint. If you still want to use the exten

Sebastien, that's all fine, this was just a proposal as I found the new dialog an improvement in the unified desktop printing experience. But well, it's not difficult to take the plugin from a corresponding Debian package (/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/print) and put it in that place on an Ubuntu ins

You seem to imply that the current print dialog doesn't work, reading the gimp bugs doesn't indicate that's true. We will consider the new dialog but that's not a security issue nor a frequent user demand so it might take some time though. About new versions there is the backport project working on

Could it then be at least in backports for those of us who'd like a more functional GIMP and don't want to wait for Hardy? I could compile it myself, sure, but it'd be nice for it to integrate nicely into the package manager. And Linux is hardly attractive to the Windows crowd if they have to comp

I can confirm that bug. The GTK+ print support is explicitly disabled in debian/rules [1]: [...] DEB_CONFIGURE_EXTRA_FLAGS := \ --enable-python --enable-default-binary --without-print [...] Enabling print support would be a great improvement of the user experience in using GIMP in Ubuntu
