Description of problem: Every time the cups authentication dialog pops up for me, the username is reset to the name of the local user. It should remember the username used from the previous printout. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cups-1.5.2-8.1.fc16 How reproducible: Always
The problem is not in CUPS but in some other componentn. Please attach a screenshot of the dialog.
Created attachment 579687 [details] Dialog filled with username and password This is the dialog filled with username and password when printing this bugzilla report.
Created attachment 579688 [details] Printing again This is the dialog that appears when printing the same page again right after printing it the first time. The username is reset to the name of the local user and the password is forgotten.
This seems to come from gtk+.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '17'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Still happens in F19.
