Bug Description
Binary package hint: gimp
There is a possibility of embedding the paper size combo and orientation
combo in the print dialog since Gtk+ 2.17.4. It is activated by calling the
gtk_print_
It would be nice to have this feature also in the GIMP, as photos do not have an
absolute size. You select the print size of a photo only when you actually
print it and photos are often printed on sizes which are not the standard size
of the printer (4x6 inches/10x15 cm). So the page size and orientation should
be easily accessable during the printing action, which means that they are best
placed in the printing dialog.
To implement this one only needs a small patch doing the following things:
- Remove the "Page Setup" menu entries (and toolbar buttons)
- Remove call-back functions to open the "Page Setup" dialog
- Add call of gtk_print_
initialization of print dialog
- Add calls to load page setup setting on print dialog initialization and
save them on OK/Print/Apply in print dialog (to remember next print dialog
call or even next session).

GIMP got fixed upstream. Can the fix get backported to the GIMP package of Ubuntu Precise before Feature Freeze? Having printing working well in GIMP would be great for the LTS.

Does this really still count as a papercut since GIMP is no longer included in default Ubuntu?
