Description of problem: I tried setting up my HP DeskJet 995C today with the current rawhide packages and ended up being notified of an internal server error in CUPS. When I ran system-config-printer from the command line I got these warnings: [kmaraas@rivendell libgnomecanvas]$ system-config-printer (system-config-printer.py:8580): libgnomevfs-WARNING **: Failed to open session DBUS connection: Unable to determine the address of the message bus (try 'man dbus-launch' and 'man dbus-daemon' for help) Volume monitoring will not work. 8580: arguments to dbus_connection_send_with_reply_and_block() were incorrect, assertion "connection != NULL" failed in file dbus-connection.c line 2769. This is normally a bug in some application using the D-BUS library. 8580: arguments to dbus_connection_send_with_reply_and_block() were incorrect, assertion "connection != NULL" failed in file dbus-connection.c line 2769. This is normally a bug in some application using the D-BUS library.

The libgnomevfs warnings are harmless -- system-config-printer doesn't use D-BUS. This is the problem: E [04/Aug/2006:22:13:25 +0200] [CGI] Printer 'HP-DeskJet_995C-gimp-print' not found! and it should be fixed in foomatic-3.0.2-38.
