Hi Dmitry,

thanks for your message and the work as volunteers on Qt packaging.
My message was merely to know if there was any need for a specific bug item about the backporting and it is great to hear that you were already planning the backport!
Also, great to hear that 19.04 is going to get the Qt LTS.

Reproducing the duplex issue is very easy.

1) Install a printer that can duplex and configure it to do duplex with long-edge binding from the printer setup dialog.

2) Open a PDF with okular, and open the print dialog. Select the printer above.

3) Press the "Options" button to enlarge the dialog to also present the options. Select the "options" tab, right of "copies". Verify that Duplex Printing is preset to "None"

This is wrong, because the printer was configured to do duplex with long-edge binding.

4) Print and close okular.

5) Reopen okular (with the same or another PDF file). Open again the print dialog and select the same printer.

6) Redo 3). Again see that Duplex Printing is preset to "None", instead of being at the default or at the previously used setup.
