Status in System Config Printer: Unknown Status in “system-config-printer” source package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: system-config-printer Recently the default notification daemon in Ubuntu was replaced by a notify-osd which does not support action buttons. Therefore system-config-printer was patched to work without action buttons if needed, by using pop-up dialogs. Unfortunately this patch cannot be applied upstream, as the check for the notification daemon type is done in a Ubuntu-specific way: if os.environ.get('GDMSESSION') == "gnome-stracciatella": This should be replaced by a generic check on the notification daemon capabilities, using the Python equivalent of the function GList *notify_get_server_caps(void); (/usr/include/libnotify/notify.h). It should be "pynotify.get_server_caps()". As there are notification daemons with and without action button support, the assumption of system-config-printer to have action button support is an upstream bug which can be fixed by upstreamizing this patch. Ken VanDine, can you please fix the patch? Thanks. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
