can you confirm that 'cups-filters' 1.28.16-3.parabola1 fixes he problem?

if not, could you be more specific, especially about step 1 "print a pdf file"?
  • which program or command prints "error while loading shared libraries: libtiff.so.5:"?
  • which PDF file?
  • does every PDF file print the same error?

i dont have a printer; but evince can print a PDF file to new file - i assume that exercises the same plumbing
- i suspect that to expose this bug (reproducibly), the PDF file would need embedded TIFF data
