Package: gnome-control-center Version: 1:3.22.2-3 Severity: normal --- Please enter the report below this line. --- We have a setup where all printers are shared by a central CUPS server. Clients use cups-browsed and DNS-SD to auto-discover them.
With this setup, it is not possible to select a default printer as a normal user. The relevant checkbox is grayed out and only becomes available after unlock, which needs membership of the lpadmin group. This is usually not wanted in an organizational network. "lpoptions -d" on the command line works as expected, and the control center even reflects these changes with a checkmark on the default printer. Why is it not possible to change it? --- System information. --- Architecture: Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-0.bpo.4-amd64 Debian Release: 9.8 900 stable-updates deb.debian.org 900 stable deb.debian.org 500 stretch fai-project.org 500 icinga-stretch packages.icinga.com 100 stretch-backports deb.debian.org --- Package information. --- Depends (Version) | Installed ================================================-+-=================== libaccountsservice0 (>= 0.6.40) | 0.6.43-1 libatk1.0-0 (>= 1.12.4) | 2.22.0-1 libc6 (>= 2.4) | 2.24-11+deb9u4 libcairo-gobject2 (>= 1.10.0) | 1.14.8-1 libcairo2 (>= 1.10.0) | 1.14.8-1 libcanberra-gtk3-0 (>= 0.25) | 0.30-3 libcanberra0 (>= 0.2) | 0.30-3 libcheese-gtk25 (>= 3.18.0) | 3.22.1-1+b1 libcheese8 (>= 3.18.0) | 3.22.1-1+b1 libclutter-1.0-0 (>= 1.23.4) | 1.26.0+dfsg-3 libclutter-gtk-1.0-0 (>= 0.91.8) | 1.8.2-2 libcolord-gtk1 (>= 0.1.24) | 0.1.26-1.1 libcolord2 (>= 0.1.31) | 1.3.3-2 libcups2 (>= 1.6.0) | 2.2.1-8+deb9u3 libfontconfig1 (>= 2.11) | 2.11.0-6.7+b1 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 (>= 2.25.2) | 2.36.5-2+deb9u2 libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.44.0) | 2.50.3-2 libgnome-bluetooth13 (>= 3.18.2) | 3.20.1-1 libgnome-desktop-3-12 (>= 3.21.4) | 3.22.2-1 libgoa-1.0-0b (>= 3.16.2) | 3.22.5-1 libgoa-backend-1.0-1 (>= 3.10.0) | 3.22.5-1 libgrilo-0.3-0 (>= 0.3.0) | 0.3.2-2 libgtk-3-0 (>= 3.22.0) | 3.22.11-1 libgtop-2.0-10 (>= 2.22.3) | 2.34.2-1 libgudev-1.0-0 (>= 146) | 230-3 libibus-1.0-5 (>= 1.5.2) | 1.5.14-3+deb9u1 libkrb5-3 (>= 1.8+dfsg) | 1.15-1+deb9u1 libmm-glib0 (>= 0.7.991) | 1.6.4-1 libnm0 (>= 1.1.90) | 1.6.2-3+deb9u2 libnma0 (>= 1.1.90) | 1.4.4-1+deb9u1 libpango-1.0-0 (>= 1.18.0) | 1.40.5-1 libpangocairo-1.0-0 (>= 1.18.0) | 1.40.5-1 libpolkit-gobject-1-0 (>= 0.99) | 0.105-18+deb9u1 libpulse-mainloop-glib0 (>= 0.99.1) | 10.0-1+deb9u1 libpulse0 (>= 0.99.1) | 10.0-1+deb9u1 libpwquality1 (>= 1.1.0) | 1.3.0-1+b1 libsmbclient (>= 2:4.0.3+dfsg1) | 2:4.5.16+dfsg-1+deb9u1 libsoup2.4-1 (>= 2.33.92) | 2.56.0-2+deb9u2 libupower-glib3 (>= 0.99.0) | 0.99.4-4+b1 libwacom2 (>= 0.7) | 0.22-1+b1 libx11-6 | 2:1.6.4-3+deb9u1 libxi6 (>= 2:1.2.99.4) | 2:1.7.9-1 libxml2 (>= 2.7.4) | 2.9.4+dfsg1-2.2+deb9u2 accountsservice | 0.6.43-1 apg | 2.2.3.dfsg.1-4+b1 colord (>= 0.1.30) | 1.3.3-2 desktop-file-utils | 0.23-1 gnome-control-center-data (<< 1:3.23) | 1:3.22.2-3 gnome-control-center-data (>= 1:3.22.2-3) | 1:3.22.2-3 gnome-desktop3-data | 3.22.2-1 gnome-settings-daemon (>= 3.19.1) | 3.22.2-2+deb9u2 gsettings-desktop-schemas (>= 3.21.4) | 3.22.0-1 Recommends (Version) | Installed ===========================================-+-=========== cups-pk-helper | 0.2.6-1+b1 gnome-online-accounts | 3.22.5-1 gnome-user-guide | 3.22.0-1 gnome-user-share | 3.18.3-1+b1 gkbd-capplet | 3.22.0.1-1+b1 iso-codes | 3.75-1 libcanberra-pulse | 0.30-3 mousetweaks | 3.12.0-1+b1 policykit-1 | 0.105-18+deb9u1 rygel | 0.32.1-3 OR rygel-tracker | 0.32.1-3 system-config-printer-common (>= 1.4) | 1.5.7-3 network-manager-gnome (>= 0.9.8) | 1.4.4-1+deb9u1 libnss-myhostname | 232-25+deb9u11 cracklib-runtime | 2.9.2-5 pulseaudio-module-bluetooth | 10.0-1+deb9u1 realmd | 0.16.3-1 Suggests (Version) | Installed ======================================-+-=========== gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio | 1.10.4-1 libcanberra-gtk-module | 0.30-3 libcanberra-gtk3-module | 0.30-3 x11-xserver-utils | 7.7+7+b1
