Bug Description

Binary package hint: system-config-printer

I installed system-config-printer-applet on Kubuntu. On printing I get this error

ERROR:dbus.connection:Exception in handler for D-Bus signal:

It must be expecting an icon to be there which isn't unless you have Gnome installed. Either a dependency should be added or better it should do something sensible when it doesn't find the icon it expects.

Yes, it requires /usr/share/icons/gnome/22x22/status/{info,important,error}.png.

This code has changed since the package you are using was built. It now uses icon themes. Please try this:

python -c 'import gtk;t=gtk.icon_theme_get_default();t.load_icon("info",22,0)'
python -c 'import gtk;t=gtk.icon_theme_get_default();t.load_icon("important",22,0)'
python -c 'import gtk;t=gtk.icon_theme_get_default();t.load_icon("error",22,0)'

Do you get any errors?
