Bug Description

Binary package hint: system-config-printer-kde

Recently upgraded to KDE 4.2 on Kubuntu 8.10 and haven't been able to launch system-config-printer-kde since. Package version is 4:4.1.80-0ubuntu1~intrepid1~ppa1. The window briefly appears, but then crashes.

When launched from konsole I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/system-config-printer-kde", line 241, in on_tvMainList_cursor_changed self.fillPrinterTab(name)
  File "/usr/bin/system-config-printer-kde", line 986, in fillPrinterTab self.updatePrinterProperties ()

I've committed a patch upstream to fix this. I was too late for beta2 but it should be included in RC1

It actually ended up being resolved for me in Beta2. So yes, working
perfectly now.

Thanks,
