patch to allow cups to send dbus messages to users none

Description Sean Bruno 2005-04-02 05:18:37 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050328 Firefox/1.0.2 Fedora/1.0.2-3

Description of problem:
Under FC3 an icon would appear in the notification area when a print job was submitted.  FC4T1 fully updated to rawhide does not display this behaviour.  There appears to be no way to access the print queue in a graphical sense in FC4T1 as well.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cups-1.1.23-15

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Submit a print job from evolution, firefox or openoffice(print something).
  

Actual Results:  Print job succeeded, but there was no print status icon in the notification area.

Expected Results:  Print job should succeed, but there should be a print status icon in the notification area.

Comment 1 Sean Bruno 2005-04-06 06:54:50 UTC 
still an issue today.
Comment 2 Sean Bruno 2005-04-07 22:17:13 UTC 
yep...still happening, this kind of hurts here as there is no way to stop a
print job graphically right now.
Comment 3 Sean Bruno 2005-04-08 20:49:11 UTC 
Today's updates had no impact.  Still an issue
Comment 4 Ray Strode [halfline] 2005-04-14 20:27:33 UTC 
Hey John,
You fixed this yea?
Comment 5 John (J5) Palmieri 2005-04-14 20:34:35 UTC 
should be in rawhide tomorrow
Comment 6 Deji 2005-04-15 18:13:11 UTC 
Still no print status applet after updating to today's rawhide. Although it
might be due to this;

Comment 7 Colin Walters 2005-04-15 18:20:32 UTC 
Dan, looks like policy needs to be fixed.
Comment 8 Colin Walters 2005-04-15 18:32:32 UTC 
Created attachment 113242 [details]
patch to allow cups to send dbus messages to users

Something like this (untested).
Comment 9 Daniel Walsh 2005-04-15 18:39:11 UTC 
I wonder if a cleaner solution would be to put unconfined_t in the
userdomain/unpriv_userdomain?  Although this could be dangerous.
Comment 10 Sean Bruno 2005-04-22 15:57:12 UTC 
nice work...seems to work for me now under FC4T2
