[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #32319] printing sometimes fails with error "gl2ps-renderer: fdopen failed"

[Michael Godfrey]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #32319 (project octave):

To provide an aid to fixing this problem,
there are 3 possible results of the print
command:

1. The command completes without showing an
   error and the PDF is correct.

2. The error message is displayed and no PDF
   is written

3. The command completes without showing an
   error, but the PDF is incomplete.

I speculate that the reason for case 3 is that the
gl2ps fdopen executes while the file exists but
has not yet been fully written.  This could be
tested by changing the code that writes the file
to lock it until the write is complete.
