Printer setup....is a steady source of joy, and I have to admit, I struggle with the setup in YaST as well. How can we improve the workflow? It was mentioned (not in this show) that Fedora is way better in that sense - Neal, can you comment? Beside this, default setup requires root permissions for nearly all print activites. Do I want to give everyone root access on the family machine? Clearly not. Nathan pointed me to [2], I feel we should make this standard.
One serious issue missing in YaST2 printer setup is being able to rename a printer. I was faced with that this week.
I think the problem is that the underlying tools/libraries can't do it. I have the vague feeling that I managed to do it many years ago, no idea how. Editing some file perhaps.
