Hi,
FYI:
Running "python /usr/share/kde4/apps/system-config-printer-kde/system-config-
printer-kde.py" gives
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/kde4/apps/system-config-printer-kde/system-config-printer-
kde.py", line 75, in <module>
import cupshelpers, options
File "/usr/share/kde4/apps/system-config-printer-kde/options.py", line 34, in
<module>
import ppdippstr
ImportError: No module named ppdippstr
The only ppdippstr(.py) I could found is in system-config-
printer-1.3.4-1.fc16.x86_64 (/usr/share/system-config-printer/ppdippstr.py)
In "/usr/share/kde4/apps/system-config-printer-kde/system-config-printer-kde.py"
there are the following lines:
#load modules from system-config-printer-common (debug, smburi), change path
here if you have it installed elsewhere
SYSTEM_CONFIG_PRINTER_DIR = "/usr/share/kde4/apps/system-config-printer"
if os.path.exists(SYSTEM_CONFIG_PRINTER_DIR + "/debug.py"):
sys.path.append(SYSTEM_CONFIG_PRINTER_DIR)
debug.py is also in "/usr/share/system-config-printer/"
I've tried to change the variable SYSTEM_CONFIG_PRINTER_DIR to
"/usr/share/system-config-printer/" but that didn't do the trick ;-(
May be someone else has some better ideas.
