Description Mariano Fernandez 2004-10-12 18:08:28 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3)

Description of problem:
when the environment variable LANG is set to es_ES
redhat-config-printer crashes with the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/redhat-config-printer", line 9, in ?
    import queueTree
  File "/usr/share/printconf/util/queueTree.py", line 945, in ?
    queueTree()
  File "/usr/share/printconf/util/queueTree.py", line 102, in __init__
    if cups_import.import_needed ():
  File "/usr/share/printconf/util/cups_import.py", line 200, in
import_needed
    which = which_spooler ()
  File "/usr/share/printconf/util/cups_import.py", line 195, in
which_spooler
    return which
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'which' referenced before assignment


Looking in the code of /usr/share/printconf/util/cups_import.py I saw
that in line 190:
       if l.startswith (" link currently points to"):
there is a reference to the output of the command "alternative", wich
in prior versions output allways in english, but now it outputs
depending on the LANG variable.
So, the python script can't determine wich spooler is the system using.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
redhat-config-printer-0.6.47.3.19-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Ensure that you are using chkconfig-1.3.11-0.3
2. export LANG=es_ES
3. execute redhat-config-printer
