[Bug 58971] infinite loop in gnome-cups-icon

[Gianni Moschini]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-cups-manager

Gnome-cups-manager is version 0.31-1.1ubuntu13

Ubuntu is Dapper 6.06

After only 4 hours of running, the HD was making some noisy work. Gnome-
system-monitor revealed that it was the gnome-cups-icon fault. It was
using more than 60 percent CPU, with some picks at 90.

And one google search later, this is what I found. The same bug appearing in Debian, with gnome-cups-icon 0.31
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.bugs.general/123860

So it's an upstream bug (is it how you would say it because I'm not sure
what is an upstream bug anyway)

Oh and because we always like screenshots, here is one.
