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.
