I observed this problem yesterday in Kubuntu Gutsy, upgraded from
Feisty. cupsys-driver-gutenprint, foomatic-db-gutenprint and
ijsgutenprint are all installed. Should the first one not be, and
should I uninstall it manually?

Having cupsys-driver-gutenprint or not has no influence on the KDE
Printing Manager, especially adding a package will not make printer
entries disappear and removing it reappear again. The desired printer
entries should be available and working as soon as both foomatic-db-
gutenprint and

Easiest solution for Gutsy (workaround, not fix!!) is adding foomatic-
db-gutenprint and ijsgutenprint to the Kubuntu seeds and removing
cupsys-driver-gutenprint from the Kubuntu seeds. This way the IJS driver
with Foomatic XML data (supported by KDE Printing Manager) and not the

well in my comment on 2007-05-12 I said that probably there is a easiest
way without changing kubuntu-meta at all, but all ignored me :(

I report again the solution:
from comment #9 in http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=142220
Cimmo,
in our case, the optimization level definitely made the difference. On
the new system described above, switching from -O3 to -O2 removed the
error. Our older systems, which were compiled with -O2
Cimmo, for Gutenprint it is really different. The cupsys-driver-
gutenprint package does not ship any PPDs but a much smaller PPD
generator. This generator is invoked by CUPS if a client asks CUPS for
PPD listings or PPDs. The KDE Printing Manager does not ask CUPS for
PPDs. It searches by itself
Cimmo, if you want your problem fixed in Kubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), please
file a bug here on Launchpad, mark it Critical and set the milestone
to 7.10 Gutsy RC.

I always add foomatic-db-gutenprint to Kubuntu machines I build for
people and it has always (in my experience) been a decision for the
better.

My suggestion for a workaround in Gutsy is the following:
1. DO NOT add foomatic-db-gutenprint
2. DO NOT patch KDE Printing Manager
3. Instead, add system-config-printer and hal-cups-utils
4. Modify menu entries that users use preferably system-config-printer and not
KDE Printing Manager
5.
Adding the Gnome tools to Kubuntu isn't an option since we don't ship
Gnome apps in Kubuntu. However I would like to look at making KDE
frontends to these for Hardy.

Jonathan, what do you think is the better solution? Adding foomatic-db-
gutenprint would introduce confusing duplicates in the web interface (on
could perhaps remove cupsys-driver-gutenprint then). Another problem
will be that Ubuntu and Kubuntu users will use different types of
Gutenprint which
Have you already tried how GNOMEy system-config-printer and hal-cups-
utils are? Do a fresh Kubuntu standard CD installation and sudo apt-get
install hal-cups-utils system-config-printer. Which packages and how
many MB get pulled in by dependencies. If the amount is low, these are
only GTK and not
@Riddell : would you really like to have another release of Kubuntu not
supporting many users' printers in the world, just because it shoudn't have
some gtk stuff in it ? I think priority was that Kubuntu works.

karlrhs tells in bug 52581 that this problem does not occur on other
distros, probably the other distros have individually patched the KDE
Printing Manager and not submitted the patch upstream or they use other
printer setup tools by default. In the former case we should take the
patches from the

You've marked this bug for the gutsy RC milestone, but I don't see that
anyone has reported this behavior with gutsy, only feisty?
