I got affected by this in Ubuntu 20.04. How come? In the status above it
says "Fix released". Am I missing something?

The fix in python-cups only prevents an infinite loop of the
login/password pop-up, so that it does not appear again when clicking
"Cancel". So you are at least able to close the add-printer wizard. But

The pre-filled "root" username only appears when the user's own username
was tried and got forbidden (i.e. they authenticated but were not
authorized).
I'm not particularly interested in tinkering with the credentials cache
very much, but if you want to play with it feel free to send patches.

Tim, one additional remark to above-mentioned problem:
There seems to be a CUPS connection with credentials for the main
process of the s-c-p session and separate CUPS connections with their
own credentials for asynchronous background processes like polling the
list of detected printers.
If one l
Tim, thank you very much.
It is an important step forward as now one can at least create the
queue.
Problem is that there are two login/password prompts now, one to
authorize for polling the list of available printers and a second to
authorize the creation of the queue. Could you make it keeping

Tim, I have tried pycups 1.9.59 now. It brings me significantly further
but still does not completely fix this issue.
The infinite loop when entering no password or clicking "Cancel" is
gone. So one can at least get out of s-c-p again if one has no valid
credentials to manipulate print queues.

Yes, CUPS 1.5. And the command line tests above, too. All on the same

This seems to be a change in behaviour for CUPS. It used to be that
providing an empty string for the password from the auth callback would
cancel the operation,
You could also run gksudo. No need to play with the user privs then.

What one is supposed to do is to enter user name and password of a user
who is in the lpadmin group. I have tried that running system-config-
printer on the desktop of a test user (not in lpadmin) and entering the
credentials of the first user installed (is in lpadmin).
Unfortunately, and this is
As a workaround for the time being, please add all user accounts from
where you want to do printer administration to the "lpadmin" group.
Do not forget to remove them again when we suggest a fix for testing.
