Thank you for reporting this bug.

How reproducable is this problem?  If you run the program from a terminal, is an error message printed?

What version of system-config-printer do you have installed?

Looking at the backtrace, it looks like the problem occurred in thread #1 in "load_message"

Reassigning component from "python" to "system-config-printer"

Comment 3 mb 2009-12-02 19:27:07 UTC
Yes, it's reproducible.

Version of system-config-printer is 1.1.13 on Fedora 12, fully yum update-ed.

When run from the command line, it shows this message after it crashes:

$ system-config-printer
process 2023: The last reference on a connection was dropped without closing the connection. This is a bug in an application. See dbus_connection_unref() documentation for details.
Most likely, the application was supposed to call dbus_connection_close(), since this is a private connection.
  D-Bus not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace
Aborted (core dumped)

Attaching screenshots of abrt dialog to show it's reproducible.

system-config-printer sometimes prompts for the superuser password twice, also shown in attached screenshots

Marking as duplicate with 542290.
