This particular bug was fixed in 0.1.10-7; the more general issue of needing to poll at all is fixed properly in rawhide (requires dbus, new cups). |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030420 Description of problem: eggcups constantly calls gethostbyname("localhost") (or a function which results in the same kind of lookup). This is on a machine which uses a remote printer. The lookup happens about once ever 3-4 secs. This really shouldn't be necessary. The IP address won't change. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): desktop-printing-0.1.10-6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start machine with Gnome desktop 2.add eggcups to panel 3. Actual Results: one host lookup every couple of seconds Expected Results: One lookup at startup time Additional info: You can observe the lookup by running nscd in debug mode /usr/sbin/nscd -d make sure nscd isn't running already.
