cups-filter problem with ghostscript after May 15, 2019 update
We have a series of printers that have been running well with the ClearOS CM 7 installed CUPS solution with ghostscript. It appears that after the May 15, 2019 updates to ghostscript-cups-9.07-31.el7_6.11, there is a problem with cups-filter.
The symptom is all submitted jobs fail with the message "Filter Failed". Looking at the /var/log/cups/error_log file, there is a message "Process is dying with "Unable to determine number of pages, page count: -1", exit stat 3.
A little other research seems to indicate a broken relationship between the updated ghostscript-cupsxxx and cups-filter. A suggested fix is to back rev ghostscript- or upgrade cups-filter.
Suggestions? Is there a repository I can activate to get an updated version of cups-filter?
Thank you for your help! -
