https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=253257 Summary: When installing an network only client printer do no build printer database Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Printing AssignedTo: jsmeix@novell.com ReportedBy: richard.bos@xs4all.nl QAContact: jsmeix@novell.com Yast provides a printer client only option. In case the computer uses the cups server somewhere in the network for printing. However, the user configuring the printer client only still needs to go through the unnecessary build printer database phase. This takes a long time and in the end it is not needed at all. The build printer database phase step can be prevented by first asking whether the user wants to install a local or network printer. Depending on this question the printer database is build (local printer) or not (network printer). The problem is that the initial build of the printer database takes a llooonnnnggggg time. Reproduction: yast2 -> hardware -> printer here the printer database is build, taking a long time It would be nice if the Printer configuration is shown right away and the build of the printerdb is delayed a printer is really added. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
