Hi,
when adding the pdf-driver of cups-pdf with gnome-cups-manager it got a
printer name and description of "postscript-color-printer-(rev3)". When
trying to change these as non-root user with g-c-m (right-click "printer
props", click "become root") gksu fails with the following message.
merlin at Sheila:~> gnome-cups-manager
merlin at Sheila:~> sh: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `('
sh: -c: line 1: `/usr/bin/env -u XAUTHORITY=/tmp/libgksu1.2-It9p7k/.Xauthority /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth add :0.0 . "`cat /tmp/libgksu1.2-It9p7k/.Xauthority.tmp`" > /dev/null 2>&1; /usr/bin/env -u XAUTHORITY=/tmp/libgksu1.2-It9p7k/.Xauthority gnome-cups-manager -p postscript-color-printer-(rev3)'
Same worked well after installing cups-pdf driver with web frontend and
named it without parenthesis (g-c-m forced me to use the default values
of the ppd filename in the first step).
Maybe incorrect protection of printer name in gksu-scripting?
Greetings,
Guido
