Description of problem: Clicking on an existing network printer in the "New Printer" dialog results in: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py", line 5602, in on_tvNPDevices_cursor_changed physicaldevice.add_device (dev) File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/PhysicalDevice.py", line 61, in add_device raise RuntimeError RuntimeError Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-printer-1.1.7-1.fc11.x86_64 How reproducible: Every time
I think this is the same issue: https://fedorahosted.org/system-config-printer/ticket/161 so the fix has already been committed upstream.
Similar issue on a fresh "rawhide" install including system-config-printer-1.1.7-4.fc11.x86_64: after authenticating and adding a network printer, a second password request pops up. After entering the root password, the application aborts without having added the printer, and a traceback is appended to .xsession-errors: Caught fatal exception.

(In reply to comment #2) A downgrade to system-config-printer-1.1.6-1.fc11.x86_64 does -not- solve the issue. However, I had used s-c-p successfully only a few weeks ago.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle. Changing version to '11'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
For F11 w/updates as of 2009-06-14, the only workaround to install a network printer via s-c-p is to launch the latter as root from a terminal window. In this case, the 2nd authentication request which makes s-c-p crash is not required.
