Jupp, I've got the same problem at work using U3 for example, it would be very nice to get a official fix with a rpm update for U4. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 131563 *** Changed to 'CLOSED' state since 'RESOLVED' has been deprecated. |
Description of problem: on a system with a non-standard language setting, e.g. LANG=de_DE redhat-config-printer crashes with python traceback. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-config-printer-0.6.47.3.19-1 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. be root 2. export LANG=de_DE 3. redhat-config-printer Actual results: 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 Expected results: Printer configuration window appears Additional info: similar errormessage appears at boot time from /etc/rc3.d/S55cups on a system with LANG="de_DE" in /etc/sysconfig/i18n Reason of this problem: file /usr/share/printconf/util/cups_import.py" lines 188 - 190 calls '/usr/sbin/alternatives --display print' and looks for the string " link currently points to". If you do not use the standart language in your system, this string will not be found. Same construction in two other files in /usr/share/printconf/util/ Workaround: file /usr/share/printconf/util/cups_import.py line 188 file /usr/share/printconf/util/printconf_conf.py line 1049 file /usr/share/printconf/util/queueTree.py line 236 change f = os.popen ('/usr/sbin/alternatives --display print') to f = os.popen ('LC_ALL=C /usr/sbin/alternatives --display print')
