What distro/version are you using?

Lunar Linux 1.6.0-i686 (Indium Antimonide - 20060323)
Kernel 2.6.22.10 on an i686

This is source based distro so I can test any source patches.

P.S. If someone will make non official patch fixing cups 1.3.4 send it to me.

The reproduce way I provided is the easiest one. This bug is not hp-toolbox problem - it was only provided as an example because there are visible error boxes. This is printing problem, looks to be PPD related. With cups 1.3.3 the ppd driver is autodetected (foomatic:/usr/share/foomatic/db/ppd/HP-DeskJet_5940-hpijs.ppd) thanks to foomatic-3.0.
With cups 1.3.4 hp-setup says the ppd driver can not be found and asks to find the path manually.
So I browse to /usr/share/foomatic/db/ppd/HP-DeskJet_5940-hpijs.ppd and then hp-setup says "Printer queue setup failed."
