Package: cups-tea4cups Version: 3.13~alpha0+svn3565-4 Severity: important Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer, [this bug report corresponds to this discussion thread on debian-user https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2018/05/msg01024.html (cont'd at next month) https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2018/06/msg00453.html ] I have tea4cups configured to power on my printer before printing. In order to do this, I prepended tea4cups:/ to the DeviceURI in printers.conf (if I remove this and power on the printer manually before printing, everything works as expected): /etc/cups/printers.conf: DeviceURI tea4cups:/http://hpljwlan:631/ipp/ I configured the printer power on script: /etc/cups/tea4cups.conf: prehook_sispmctl : /usr/local/bin/printeron but I get unfortunately an error in /var/log/cups/error_log with every print job and the job is stopped. E [30/May/2018:08:51:40 +0200] [Job 16] Tea4CUPS (PID 9689) : Traceback (most recent call last): E [30/May/2018:08:51:40 +0200] [Job 16] Tea4CUPS (PID 9689) : File \"/usr/lib/cups/backend/tea4cups\", line 1502, in <module> E [30/May/2018:08:51:40 +0200] [Job 16] Tea4CUPS (PID 9689) : wrapper.exportAttributes() E [30/May/2018:08:51:40 +0200] [Job 16] Tea4CUPS (PID 9689) : File \"/usr/lib/cups/backend/tea4cups\", line 1214, in exportAttributes E [30/May/2018:08:51:40 +0200] [Job 16] Tea4CUPS (PID 9689) : os.environ[\"TEABILLING\"] = self.JobBilling or \"\" E [30/May/2018:08:51:40 +0200] [Job 16] Tea4CUPS (PID 9689) : File \"/usr/lib/python2.7/os.py\", line 473, in __setitem__ E [30/May/2018:08:51:40 +0200] [Job 16] Tea4CUPS (PID 9689) : putenv(key, item) E [30/May/2018:08:51:40 +0200] [Job 16] Tea4CUPS (PID 9689) : TypeError: putenv() argument 2 must be string, not int Is seems something goes wrong while setting the TEABILLING environement variable. There are more details listed in the mailing list thread linked above, but I think there are not very relevant. In the meantime Daniel reported that he sees the same problem also in Arch and KDE Neon: https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2018/08/msg00505.html Via private mail he pointed out that this patch fixes the problem for him in Arch linux: https://gitlab.com/dadosch/tea4cups/commit/1aac1f51ed35300891b3f0f01b34b37b523f1736 I applied it on my Debian buster system and it fixes my issue as well. All credits for the fix go to Daniel.
