Has anyone noticed what happens when you select the kde4-printer-applet for download? For some reason it downloads kde3 library files?
Cheers!

I went to [KDE] Index of /trunk/playground/base/print-manager](http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/base/print-manager/)
However, he only had a README file and nothing else. Nothing to compile.
I guess he’s redesigning it.
Welcome to our forum Dantti
You are correct. It haas gone to git.kde.org
I like your printer applet. Use it every day!
I installed kde4-printer-applet but it won’t launch. From the terminal I get:
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'StackedWidget'
It required about 20 other packages to resolve dependencies.
Edit: There’s already a bug report about this and an update has been submitted to Factory.
In order for it to work, it must download kde3 libraries.
It’s good that you submitted a bug report. I thought that most
authors have ported their kde3 apps to kde4 by now.
If a new rpm has not been created through OBS, you can always download
the files from Gitorious.
I didn’t submit the bug report, but the bug and the resolution were both submitted yesterday. Pretty fast work. Most of the dependencies I had were for python and gnome libraries. I don’t remember seeing any KDE3 packages but they might have already been installed.
Very fast work! Next time, before I select the printer-applet, I’ll deselect OSS and see if I get a message.
A dry-run gives me
linux-n35n:/home/dean # zypper in --dry-run --recommends kde4-printer-applet

The one package that brought a smile to my face was system-config-printer. I haven’t used that Red Hat utility since ~2001

I remember that package was one of the dependencies for me too. That app will launch. It’s the KDE4 printer applet that fails to launch until the patched python-qt4 is available.
