[system-config-printer-gnome] - Can't configure a remote printer via SAMBA that has any Space in it's share name

[André Madureira]

Binary package hint: system-config-printer-gnome

Hello,

[Details]:

I tried to configure a printer in my Ubuntu 11.04 via system-config-printer-gnome, but I couldn't because I could find the printer in my Samba Network, but when I tried to test the accessibility of the printer, it failed even with the correct authentication username and password...

[Workaround]:

So I had to change the share name of the printer, removing all the spaces it had... And with that I could connect to it normally.

[Problem]:

"system-config-printer-gnome" can't connect to a Samba remote printer that has spaces in it's share name...

[Informations Related to the OS's used to test the Issue]:

OS of the computer that has the Remote Printer: Windows 7 Ultimate x86 SP1 with Kaspersky Firewall allowing file, folder and printer sharing...

OS of my Machine (I used it to connect to the remote printer): Ubuntu 11.04 and Kubuntu 11.04

Thanks for your help,

André M.

Duplicate of bug #747400.

Was fixed upstream (commit 8f29215).

So, if this bug is fixed, why don't Synaptic update the package?

Thanks for your help,
