Bug ID: 57028 Summary: LTSpice will not print with WINE 9.xx on Ubuntu 24.04 Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: spooler Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: dpalmer035@gmail.com Distribution: ---
I had been using Ubuntu 22.04 with wine version 6 and LTspice would run and print without issue. I recently upgraded to the new Ubuntu 24.04 and in doing so wine had been upgraded to version 9.0
LTspice will run without issue but printing no longer works. The printout is marked as stopped in the print manager and can not be restarted so it must be deleted. In addition, if I use the CUPS pdf driver, the only thing that is generated is a blank page.
To troubleshoot further and make sure that I could figure out exactly what is causing the issue, I went back and loaded up a new copy of Ubuntu 22.04 into a virtual machine and then installed the default version of wine-6.0.3 that is part of that releases repro. Installed LTspice 17 and 24 both ran/printed without issue.
I then removed the stock wine-6.0.3 release repro version, added the WineHQ repository and installed winehq-stable 9.0. Now both LTspice 17 or 24 both ran but neither would print.
I then removed winehq-stable and installed winehq-dev 9.14. Same result in that both LTspice 17 or 24 both ran but neither would print.
Next I installed Ubuntu 24.04 in a virtual machine. I then installed the default repository version of wine-9.0, LTspice 24 and again it would not print. I added the WineHQ repository and installed winehq-devel 9.14 and again it would not print.
