Does Version 6.2 Solve the Issue Where Some PDFs Won't Print? #152

I've been having a problem where some PDFs don't print. I noticed that it can be fixed without waiting for an update, but I'd kinda like to avoid having to install from source, partially so when a new version is available in the Debian repository, I won't have to uninstall the version I installed from source and then install the version from the respository. If 6.2 really does solve the problem, then I could just install from the Debian Testing repository (I'm running Stable).

This is duplicative of #52 I had this issue even building from source until manually applying the fix. I don't believe it's addressed in the latest version based on my testing.

Oh, okay. After I read your message late last night, I set about manually applying the fix with great determination. And I succeeded! It's so great to finally be able to print anything after all this time! And it wasn't as hard as I thought!

The issue is still there on Ubuntu 20.04 witch package printer-driver-brlaser 6-1build1 installed. If understanding correctly the latest release brlaser v6 in this git repository does not contain the fix from #52 yet. How probable is it to see the fix from #52 in the next brlaser release?
