Package: gnome-cups-manager Version: 0.30-2 Followup-For: Bug #214056 Does your environment set $PRINTER? I've been poking at the version of gnome-cups-manager currently in unstable for a while today, and noticed that if $PRINTER was set, it would alter ~/.lpoptions, but wouldn't change the default printer marker.
Stupid, but it's Gnome, so what do you expect? Someone made a *deliberate* design decision to do that... to deliberately be stupid and actually change the default, but not to change the marker conditional on the setting of an environment variable. Of course, even though ~/.lpoptions is getting changed, libgnomeprint or some other piece of this disaster is still failing to pick up what the default printer is, despite CUPS itself knowing. Applications are all defaulting to the first printer in the list, no matter what the default is actually set to. Gnome applications, I should say. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12.2 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages gnome-cups-manager depends on: ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.17-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.10.1-2 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libbonobo2-0 2.10.0-1 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2-0 2.10.0-1 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.3.5-3 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcupsys2-gnutls10 1.1.23-11 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libgconf2-4 2.10.1-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglade2-0 1:2.5.1-2 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.6.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-keyring0 0.4.3-1 GNOME keyring services library ii libgnome2-0 2.10.1-1 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomecanvas2-0 2.10.2-2 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgnomecups1.0-1 0.2.0-2 GNOME library for CUPS interaction ii libgnomecupsui1.0-1 0.30-2 UI extensions to libgnomecups ii libgnomeui-0 2.10.1-1 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgnomevfs2-0 2.10.1-5 The GNOME virtual file-system libr ii libgtk2.0-0 2.6.9-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-5 Inter-Client Exchange library ii liborbit2 1:2.12.2-3 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-0 1.8.2-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpopt0 1.7-5 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libsm6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-5 X Window System Session Management ii libx11-6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-5 X Window System protocol client li ii libxml2 2.6.20-1 GNOME XML library ii xlibs 6.8.2.dfsg.1-5 X Window System client libraries m ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages gnome-cups-manager recommends: pn gksu <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
