Adding a printer should not fail, period. Yes, this bug should probably be filed against cupsys, but either way, the issue should be fixed now for everyone. I just updated and tried to add my printer, and it works. The update was definitely in cupsys. We don't need duplicate bugs that have the same root cause.
