Description Michael A. McLean 2001-09-12 20:55:50 UTC 
* re0910.0-ia64
* ia64 / English / NFS / Full Server / GUI install


printconf crashes (gui or tui) on a fresh install of 0910.0-ia64.  This
appears to be a little different from other recent bugs (bug #52472, bug
#52158, bug #51505, or bug #51309).

here is the output:
Initializing alchemist edit environment ...
Initializing linux printing database ...
Traceback (innermost last):
