The command line captured in the initial posting: /usr/lib/cups/driver/openprinting-ppds cat openprinting- ppds:0/Brother/BR5270_2_GPL.ppd
works perfectly for me. Probably the crash is caused by insufficient disk space or a damaged file system. Please check ths state of your disks, then try again. Does it work now? ** Changed in: foomatic-db (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/644781 Title: openprinting-ppds crashed with IOError in main() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/foomatic-db/+bug/644781/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
