Details

Description:
The new system-config-printer package (1.1.7) does not install any longer the cupshelpers.py and ppds.py files in the /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cupshelpers.

As a result kdeadmin does not build the system-config-printer-kde binary, which is needed to configure printers in kde4.

By the way, an upstream patch in trunk is needed to have this ninary working. See attached file.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
4.2.2-2

* config and/or log files etc.
N/A

Steps to reproduce:

I moved cupshelpers.py e ppds.py in /usr/share/system-config-printer.

I thought it was the better location for those files.
I'll check on this and, if you are right, I'll not apply your patch but I'll keep cupshelpers.py e ppds.py in /usr/lib/python2.6....

Thanks for looking into this.

The patch I attached is not for that. It is needed in kdeadmin to have the generated script work properly.
