--- Comment #1 from Johannes Meixner ---
Regarding the YaST printer module:
In practice the YaST printer module is no longer
acually further developed since it was
"converted from YCP to Ruby by YCP Killer" that happened
in July 2013, see the yast2-printer.changes entry
----------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jul 31 08:37:43 UTC 2013 - yast-devel@opensuse.org
- converted from YCP to Ruby by YCP Killer
(https://github.com/yast/ycp-killer)
- version 3.0.0
----------------------------------------------------------
at
https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/YaST:Head/yast2-printer/yast2-p...
My last change is dated Mon Jan 19 14:51:39 UTC 2015
and my last actual further development enhancement are dated
before it was "converted from YCP to Ruby by YCP Killer".
Since that time the YaST printer module is kept working as is
as far as possible with reasonable effort by YaST team members
who know about how to deal with their generated Ruby code.
Since my YCP code was converted into generated Ruby code
it is no longer my code and it is no longer code
that I could further develop with reasonable effort.
Because the YaST printer module is based on the traditional
way how printing works with CUPS <= 1.5.4 in particular for
printing in the network, the YaST printer module intentionally
fails with error messages when things won't work with nowadays
way how printing in the network works with CUPS >= 1.6
cf. "CUPS >= 1.6 has major incompatible changes" in
https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:CUPS_in_a_Nutshell
According to
htps://bugzilla.suse.com/page.cgi?id=status_resolution_matrix.html
I can only close it as "wontfix" because this issue is a bug
but it cannot be fixed in practice in foreseeable future.

At least currently links to features.opensuse.org fail with
"the service you want to access is not supported any longer"
so it seems those feature requests are no longer accessible.
