Tim, it seemsthat something in the Python3 transition has torn down the handling of thediscovered printers completely, at least in Ubuntu. Perhaps some basic concepts of Python have changed or data types are distinguished more strictly.
I can reproduce the problem by staring s-c-p from a terminal, clicking "Add printer" and then choosing one of the discovered printers (in my caseit was a network printer). Instead of geting the connection types for the printer in the lower right of thedialog, I get traceback with said message in the terminal window. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1367368 Title: system-config-printer.py crashed with TypeError in __init__(): Type str doesn't support the buffer API To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/system-config-printer/+bug/1367368/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
