Public bug reported: Binary package hint: system-config-printer-gnome
/usr/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py uses #!/usr/bin/env python on the shebang line. If you've installed a newer version of Python than what Ubuntu provides (2.6 in this case, in /opt/Python-2.6 where it shouldn't clash with the distribution packages) and have put it first in your path, running the printer configuration tool from GNOME menus results in an error message in ~/.xsession-errors and no user visible indication of what went wrong. Using /usr/bin/python instead of /usr/bin/env would solve this problem. This is with Ubuntu 8.10. The package version is 1.0.5+git20080819-0ubuntu6. ** Affects: system-config-printer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Shouldn't look up python in path https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/328657 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
