This bug I can reproduce when renaming printers (the poster of the duplicate bug has this problem on printer renaming).

If I left-click a printer, then right-click it, and after that choose "rename", system-config-printer immediately crashes, not giving me the possibility to modify the printer's name.

If I immediately right-click the printer I can actually rename it and system-config-printer keeps running. If I right-click the printer again and choose "rename" immediately after that, my rename request is simply ignored and I can repeat an arbitrary amount of times and the requests keep being ignored. If I left-click another printer and then right-click my first printer and choose "rename" I can rename the printer again, but system-config-printer crashes immediately afterwards.

For me it looks like that the GUI entry for the renamed printer does not get updated correctly and renaming again based on the broken GUI entry makes system-config-printer crash.

Tim, can you have a look?
