package kdeprint tags 239083 +unreproducible thanks The kdeprint_lpd plugin was disabled from compilation two years ago: revision 1.48. From cvs log Makefile.am in kdelibs/kdeprint:
date: 2002/01/26 17:14:39; author: goffioul; state: Exp; lines: +1 -1 - added a spooler type selection widget in config dialog - disabled the old "lpd" plugin in the compilation process in favour of this new "lpr" plugin. Why? . provides job management support . support LPRng as well as LPR . old "lpd" plugin only provides some basic printer management feature for RH-printtool (== outdated) . cannot be worse than the old "lpd" plugin :-) I don't understand why or where it would still be used. cheers domi
