Description Bryan Christ 2006-12-20 16:33:36 UTC
Description of problem:

This causes printing to a remote cups printer to fail.
The default error message "usr/lib/cups/backend/ipp failed" is not very helpful.
 Only by changing the loglevel to debug can it be seen that page rendering fails
because this package is missing.

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


How reproducible:

unknown.  (assumed always).

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Install FC6 using defaults.
2.  Configure a remote cups printer using cups web interfaces on
http://localhost:631 or by using the Gnome menu item
System->Administration->Printing.
3.  Try to print a test page.
  
Actual results:

No jobs are printing

Expected results:

Pretty colors and text on paper

Additional info:

Until packages is added to FC6 by default, simply do a:
yum install pnm2ppa

What does 'rpm -q system-config-printer' say?  The updated package should have
warned about this.

Comment 2 Bryan Christ 2006-12-21 16:06:19 UTC
[root@tuxdev ~]# rpm -q system-config-printer
system-config-printer-0.7.40-1.fc6

I assure you that I've never seen any warning about pnm2ppa.

Comment 3 Tim Waugh 2006-12-21 16:51:28 UTC
Oh, there was a bug in the checking code, now fixed in CVS.

Comment 4 Bryan Christ 2006-12-21 16:59:43 UTC
Okay.  I guess we'll have to take your word for it :)

Comment 5 Tim Waugh 2006-12-21 17:01:19 UTC
The fix will be in a future update shortly.

Comment 6 Tim Waugh 2006-12-22 09:19:42 UTC
Please try 0.7.43-1.fc6 from updates-testing:

yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update 'system-config-printer*'

When setting up a new queue that requires a package not installed you should get
a warning message.


Comment 7 Fedora Update System 2007-01-05 18:21:01 UTC
Fixed in update: system-config-printer-0.7.45-1.fc6

Comment 8 Bryan Christ 2007-01-05 18:45:24 UTC
I did the update, but since I had already fixed the problem by installing the
needed package pnm2ppa manually.

Comment 9 Bryan Christ 2007-01-05 18:46:33 UTC
(brain fart) comment#8 cont... I didn't get a warning message.
