Created attachment 376930 [details] cups-pk-helper-add-printer-ppd-optional.patch Description of problem: The PrinterAdd implementation thinks that ppd-name is a mandatory parameter but I don't think it should be. The underlying CUPS-Add-Modify-Printer call does not require it. System-config-printer uses addPrinter(name, device=...), and this fails. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cups-pk-helper-0.0.4-9.fc12.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.Just change the device of a printer. Actual results: PolicyKit call fails, IPP authentication dialog presented. Expected results: PolicyKit call succeeds.
