[Bug 1220520] Configure remote printer: does not disable local cups entirely
https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1220520 https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1220520#c5 --- Comment #5 from Stefan Hundhammer <shundhammer@suse.com> --- Please refrain from reopening this again. This issue has been discussed to death numerous time already. Even if a community builds around this, this would be a major effort, and still the only viable solution would be a complete rewrite. The endless shell pipelines that are called from this YaST module, impossible to debug and to maintain, let alone test, would be painful enough. But together with that auto-translated code it becomes even worse, because the YCP-to-Ruby code converter aimed at code correctness, and readability and maintainability suffered heavily from it. It's hard to understand (let alone change) for hard-core Ruby developers who are also (!) hard-core YCP developers. The number of such people in this world can be counted on one hand. YaST printer was a useful tool 15-20 years ago when there were no alternatives. But today, there are several; there is simply no need to try to keep this zombie code alive. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
