Package: kprinter4
Version: 12-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Because users searching in 'kickoff' for 'print' ("hey, what do i use to print
my files? Maybe searching for 'print' will tell me") will see 'kprinter4' and
attempting to launch it will result in seeing nothing appear but
'bouncy-cursor' (presumption: application doesn't work.)
If 'kprinter4' is launched with '--openfiledialog' from 'Exec' statement in
.desktop file, it will be much more useful in most circumstances. (as i can
see no way the .desktop file is useful in current form, as it doesn't even use
%-variable-expansion if a file were passed to it.)
I suppose to do this "properly" might even require two or more desktop files
presenting like:
1) kprinter4 (file chooser) [ Exec:kprinter4 --openfiledialog ]
2) kprinter4 (stdin) [ Exec:kprinter4 --stdin ] (i'm still not
sure what use such a .desktop would provide)
>From below:
-- debsums errors found:
debsums: changed file /usr/share/applications/kde4/kprinter4.desktop (from
kprinter4 package)
NOTE: Yeah, because i already changed mine. Unfortunately, there's no support
in the default KDE setup in Debian for /etc/kde4/... site overrides.
(we use /usr/local/ on NFS shared server, but it's not consistent to all of our
systems, whereas cfengine to /etc/kde4 would work much better for us)
thanks,
--stephen
