From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Epiphany/1.0.4 Description of problem: I installed redhat-config-printer with yum, which sorted out all the dependancies, but it wouldn't run: After spending _ages_ trying to work out why, I tracked it down to a dependency on gnome-python2-canvas. I'm guessing that redhat-config-printer doesn't directly depend on this, so maybe this bug should be filed in gnome-python2-bonobo. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. rpm -e gnome-python2-canvas 2. redhat-config-printer Actual Results: [root@harry root]# redhat-config-printer Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/redhat-config-printer", line 9, in ? import queueTree File "/usr/share/printconf/util/queueTree.py", line 69, in ? import gnome.ui ImportError: could not import bonobo.ui Additional info:
redhat-config-printer is not a Fedora Core 1 package. Use system-config-printer.
Oh, wait, FC *1* -- got confused by the fact that this was filed against *system*-config-printer. Are you using a different version of Python than shipped? (You can't do that.)
Using the default version of python. It works redhat-config-printer works perfectly when gnome-python2-canvas is installed, but doesn't work at all when it isn't. It is a fresh install without printing support, after which I did yum install redhat-config-printer. The dependency is required somewhere. If it isn't, how can you explain that it works when it is installed, and it doesn't work when it is not installed? Filing against system-config-printer was a mistake.
