Description Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi 2010-11-28 19:37:07 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:

1. Start with a new black presentation. 
2. Add a new slide. (so the document has two pages now, or any even number of pages)
3. File -> Print
4. Select: Handouts
5. Slides per page: 2

Now in preview frame you can see that there is one more page than expected, the last page is blank (or with any footer/header if any).

LibreOffice 3.3.0 OOO330m12 (Build:1) 3.2.99.3 ArchLinux build-1 (ooo330-m13)
Comment 1 Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi 2011-03-07 21:28:17 UTC 
Still reproducible on LibreOffice 3.3.1 OOO330m19 (Build:8) 3.3.1.2 ArchLinux build-1

There is no need to add comments that a bug is still present in a new micro version (3.3.0 -> 3.3.1). It is expected that the bug is still present if there is no comment in the bug report that it would have been fixed.

For minor (3.3 -> 3.4) or even major (3. -> 4.) version changes, bugs indeed might get fixed "by themselves", i.e. as a consequence of other changes, or as part of the changes merged in from OOo. Then it makes sense to tell if a bug has gone away, but even after such version changes there is no need to tell that a bug is still present, unless a developer explicitly asks for confirmation that the bug is still there.

[Reproducible] with "LibreOffice 3.3.2  – WIN7  Home Premium  (64bit) German UI [OOO330m19 (Build:202 / tag 3.3.2.2)]"

Same Prolbem with older OOo-dev 3.4
OK with OOo 3.1.1

The corresponding OOo bug is fixed for 3.4:
"Printing handouts prints one page (empty) too much"

Comment 8 Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi 2012-01-13 23:11:14 UTC 
is supposed to be fixed in [3.4.4 OOO340m1 (Build:402)]? Because this bug is still present.

@Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi:
From where do you have that information concerning 3.4.4 fix?
Comment 10 Ivan Timofeev (retired) 2012-01-14 01:17:50 UTC 
The bug was fixed in 3.5. However, we can fix it in 3.4 as well I think...

I know!

> However, we can fix it in 3.4 as well I think...

That, of course, would be the very best solution.
