           Summary: Add / modify printer uses gnomesu instead of gksudo
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gnome-cups-manager

        ReportedBy: julo at altern.org

With the latest gnome-cups-manager, it is impossible to add a new printer
because it will try to run gnomesu, and complain that it's not present.

Same thing if you try to become administrator from the printer property page.

You have two possibilities:
 - use gksudo wherever gnomesu is used (fix the code)
 - use gksudo to launch gnome-cups-manager in the first place (fix the .desktop)

I just hope it's not too late for breezy...
