This seems to be a minor release regression in 4.0.4 vs. previous 4.0 versions: "The pre-installed LibreOffice 3.6(?) of Ubuntu 12.04 has a bug and the paper tray selection does not work. It chooses always the paper from tray 1. Therefore I installed LibreOffice 4.0 from ppa libreoffice-4-0. And this version worked correctly concerning the paper tray selection until now - the current version 4.0.4.2 AGAIN BROKE this feature - again everything is printed from tray 1!" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1196263 possibly related: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61186 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43932
(In reply to comment #0) @Björn: Shouldn't the version number of this bug be 4.0.4.2 release? As I haven't ubuntu I can't confirm the bug itself.
So - the claim is that the change is in the 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 range ? git log --numstat libreoffice-4.0.3.3..libreoffice-4.0.4.2 167 commits to bisect I guess - but I'd check that 4.0.3 actually does work ;-) Only one commit actually looks even remotely related to printing: commit 0b39358aaf723b26b5effb7245f38ad960cc609a Author: Jan Holesovsky <kendy@suse.cz> Date: Wed Apr 24 16:15:19 2013 +0200 fdo#59259: Suppress the expensive parts when we are only writing to metafile. So I'm suspicious of the claimed range personally.
don't forget to do a query on "paper" and "print" before starting ..
@Winfried: Whops indeed -- fixed. @Michael: No, so far the claim is that it worked with _some_ 4.0.x version, so the range is 4.0.0 to 4.0.4. I asked to clarify on the downstream bug. Note that given how much we use an external print stack on this, before its confirmed hard that going back to 4.0.0 fixes this, its entirely possible that some other package update broke this. Still -- if it would be us, its a minor release regression.
Changing 'regression' -> 'PossibleRegression' until we get independent confirmation.
Björn just a ping. Does this persist with 4.2.0.1?
