[YCP] Printerlib.ycp:66 Executing bash commandline: /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/create_printer_ppd_database

/var/lib/YaST2/printer_ppd_database.ycp 2012-08-01 09:44:14 ... [bash] ShellCommand.cc(shellcommand):78 lpinfo: Success

I closed yast2-printer and restarted it and then it works and in /var/log/YaST2/y2log there is no "lpinfo:..." message. Therefore it seems even with CUPS 1.5.3 the root issue is not solved but only the lpinfo message has changed from "lpinfo: Unknown" to "lpinfo: Success" regardless that actually lpinfo was not successful to produce the PPDs/drivers listing.
