This is due to the fact that the Epson driver entries on the OpenPrinting web site do not contain the long license textst inline but in one centralized text file on Epson's web site. The driver entries only contain links to this file. system-config-printer does only support inline license texts and crashes on this kind of driver entries. [Impact] Users of newer Epson inkjet printers are not able to set up their printers because system-config-printer crashes when choosing such a printer in the list of detected printers. [Test Case] If you do not have one of the mentioned printers, create a file named /usr/lib/cups/backend/testbackend containing the line echo 'direct usb://EPSON/XP-215%20217%20Series "EPSON XP-215 217 Series" "EPSON XP-215 217 Series" "MFG:EPSON;CMD:ESCPL2,BDC,D4,D4PX,ESCPR2;MDL:XP-215 217 Series;CLS:PRINTER;DES:EPSON XP-215 217 Series;" ""' and make it world-readable and -executable: sudo chmod a+rx /usr/lib/cups/backend/testbackend This emulates an Epson XP-215/217 printer on USB, at least for CUPS' printer discovery facility. Start system-config-printer and click the "Add" button. In the printer setup wizard choose the Epson XP-215 217 Series printer under the detected printers. There will pop up "Searching driver" messages several times but in the end system-config-printer crashes. With the proposed packages for Utopic and Trusty the driver selection screen will appear offering to download Epson's driver for this printer and after accepting the license the driver gets installed and the printer set up with this driver. [Regression Potential] Regression potential is low, as the fix only affects the code for retreiving the driver database record from OpenPrinting and displaying it on the driver selection screen. All other functionality of system- config-printer is unchanged.
