I again have error in printer properties but not always reproducable. I have two printers. for one of them properties shown always, but for second sometimes failed with error Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py", line 1664, in on_edit_activate self.dests_iconview_item_activated (self.dests_iconview, paths[0]) File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py", line 510, in dests_iconview_item_activated parent=self.PrintersWindow) File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/printerproperties.py", line 573, in show self.load (name, host=host, encryption=encryption, parent=parent) File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/printerproperties.py", line 1477, in load self.updatePrinterProperties () File "/usr/share/system-config-printer/printerproperties.py", line 1637, in updatePrinterProperties state += ' - ' + reason UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xd0 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128) But after I restart cups service properties shown.
Now I have system-config-printer-1.4.1-1.fc19.i686 installed, will try system-config-printer-1.4.1-3.fc19.i686 from updates-testing
Looks like this is other bug 965578
Yes, that's right. I think 1.4.1-3.fc19 ought to fix it.
