Public bug reported:
Affects: kdebase (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
Binary package hint: kdeprint
I originally reported this in #35581, but there was many bugs under that
bug id and the "original" got fixed so here goes...
When I try to add a printer (using CUPS as the print system) I get this
message after choosing the right driver (works well on Breezy):
----8<----
Error - KDE Control Module
Unable to load the requested driver:
Unable to create the Foomatic driver
[HP-LaserJet_1320,Postscript]. Either that driver does
not exist, or you don't have the required permissions to perform that operation.
----8<-----
I get the same error no matter if I'm in the administrator mode or not.
If I start systemsettings from command line, I can see this:
----8<----
*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (!prev): 0x08178838 ***
Entity: line 2058: parser error : Extra content at the end of the document
</printer>
^
printer 'HP-LaserJet_1320' not found!
kdeprint: WARNING: PPD syntax error, PPD parse failed
----8<----
All this with the latest dapper versions:
kdeprint 3.5.2-0ubuntu19
kcontrol 3.5.2-0ubuntu19
kde-systemsettings 0.0svn20060502-0ubuntu1
