[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 281670] [NEW] [hardy] F-Spot can't adjust paper size and ignores printer setting

[Shaun Crampton]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: f-spot

Just upgraded to hardy from the previous LTS release and found that it
is no longer possible to print to a small 6"x4" paper in f-spot.  F-Spot
does not give a paper size option in its print dialog and I have tried
changing the printing size in the Printing administration applet but the
size is not honoured.  When I print to a 6x4 sheet, even with the latter
setting, the photo prints at a large size and is cropped (only one
corner of the page is visible on the printout).

This is a very annoying regression since this PC belongs to my mother,
who uses the PC entirely for printing photos!  (Needless to say,
Intrepid is not an option here.)

$ apt-cache policy f-spot
f-spot:
  Installed: 0.4.3.1-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 0.4.3.1-0ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 0.4.3.1-0ubuntu1 0

     0.4.2-1ubuntu3 0

My printer is a Canon Pixma MP180, using proprietary turboprint drivers
but F-Spot is missing the paper size option in the print dialog no
matter what printer I attach.
