Bug#649885: system-config-printer: job is in processing status even if completed successfully and jobs queue is not refreshed

Package: system-config-printer
Version: 1.2.3-3
Severity: normal

I'm using a network printer and I can print.
However the printer applet looks buggy:

1) the first job is in the "processing" status (I'm translating from my
language) even if the job is actually completed.
2) if I print another document, the print queue is not refreshed: I still see
the first job.
3) I can't cancel/delete the "processing" job.

If I close the program in the systray and launch it again from the terminal,
I can see that the queue is empty. If I print a new document, it's still empty.

When I open the print window in Evince, the status of all the network printers
is correct (switched on printers are "ready to print" and switched off printers
are "unplugged or turned off").

The first time I noticed this problem was one month ago.
It was before I run into bug #603020 (Spurious 'printer not
connected?' message).

CUPS interface (http://localhost:631/jobs) is working fine.
