Package: system-config-printer-kde 4:4.4.5-5
The package/program when started results in a warning*
"The service "Printer Configuration" does not provide an interface
"KCModule" with the keyword
"system-config-printer-kde/system-config-printer-kde.py"*
So I tried to start system-config-printer-kde from the command line..
and I got this failure......
/sqlpyt...@bobssl410:~$ kcmshell4 system-config-printer-kde

I then thought to add the python-cupshelpers package from the Debian
package site
http://packages.debian.org/sid/all/python-cupshelpers/download
..but that installed resulted in the removal of the other
system-config-printer package
which resulted in the removal of the other packages below and thus No
printer config at all
...I am going to check as to how KUbuntu does it and look at their
Python module
"/usr/share/kde4/apps/system-config-printer-kde/system-config-printer-kde.py"
/
Also what other packages KUbuntu uses in the support of
system-config-printer-kde4
Here is the result of the python-cupshelpers package install.....
