Mike's patch does not assign a string -- it assigns a value of type IPP_TAG_NOVALUE. Unfortunately pycups translates this to a string because it doesn't know how to handle that type. I'm going to teach it to handle it as the Python 'None' value, and will teach system-config- printer to use its own idea of what the system default is for that option if it encounters None.
I do wonder why that CUPS option is included in the default set if it has no default value though. -- system-config-printer.py crashed with ValueError in reinit() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/140887 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
