Description of problem: The ppd-name attribute is always added to an Add-Modify-Printer request, even when it has not been provided by the caller. This makes the call fail in that situation. cups.c:1485: cph_cups_printer_add(): ippAddString (request, IPP_TAG_PRINTER, IPP_TAG_NAME, "ppd-name", NULL, ppd_file); should check for (ppd_file && ppd_file[0] != '\0'). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cups-pk-helper-0.1.3-1.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start system-config-printer 2.Edit a printer 3.Try to change the Device URI. Actual results: When applying this change, a root password prompt is shown. Expected results: No root password prompt; instead the only dialogs should be PolicyKit ones.
Hi Tim, I've just committed the patch to F15, F16 and rawhide. It was previously marked as already upstreamed and was removed. I'll try to get it upstream now. Thank you for this report. Regards Marek
