Application that crashed: kcmshell4 Version of the application: KDE Version: 4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1) Qt Version: 4.5.2 Operating System: Linux 2.6.28-15-generic i686 Distribution: Ubuntu 9.04 What I was doing when the application crashed: The printer settings module crashes at startup both when I click on "printer" module in systemsettings and when I launch "kcmshell4 system-config-printer-kde". Reinstalling and/or reconfiguring python-kde4, python-qt4, python-qt4-dbus, cups, system-config-printer-kde didn't solve the problem. Some bugs in the tracker were very similar to this, but they solved just by reconfiguring some packages. System is up to date (jackalope with frequent dist-upgrades). -- Backtrace: Application: Modulo di controllo di KDE (kcmshell4), signal: Segmentation fault [KCrash Handler] #6 PyTuple_Pack (n=1) at ../Objects/tupleobject.c:150 #7 0xb4462800 in PyType_Ready (type=0xb4071180) at ../Objects/typeobject.c:3965 #8 0xb3ffdbb3 in ??

This bug also affects KDE SC 4.4, as compiled in the Kubuntu ppa as of 2010-01-01. It appears to be the same as (or at least closely related to) Kubuntu bug 331192.

"system-config-printer-kde" is no longer maintained and has been replaced with "Print Manager" since KDE 4.10. The new version is a C++ rewrite of the old Python version, and may still lack some features or have some bugs. If this or another issue still needs to be addressed in KDE 4.10 or newer, please add a comment, or report it for "Print Manager".
